The story of Something Different

“The Wrong Enemy” is a song about the painful realization that the battles we fight on the outside often come from wounds on the inside.
It explores how easily we misinterpret tones, gestures, or words — not because others meant harm, but because something unresolved within us reacts first.

The narrator reflects on years of blaming the world around him: other people, their voices, their intentions.
But every time the noise faded, the same familiar ache returned — proof that the real source was internal.

The song reveals a powerful shift:
the enemy wasn’t the other person.
It was the leftover echo of old beliefs, early defenses, and emotional patterns built long before adulthood.
Patterns designed to protect —
but now standing in the way.

The chorus opens wide with emotional clarity, admitting that the true conflict isn’t between him and the outside world, but between him and his own inherited reflexes.

The bridge speaks quietly but sharply:
he has slammed doors where no walls existed, fought battles that never belonged to him, reacted to ghosts from the past rather than to the present moment.

By the final chorus, the insight becomes resolve:
the pattern can be broken,
the fight can be faced consciously,
and the blame no longer needs to be placed outward.

“The Wrong Enemy” is a moment of honesty —
a song about turning inward, owning the truth, and releasing the weight of misdirected battles.

“Mirror Image” is a gentle, emotional acoustic piece about the gap between how we see ourselves and how the people who love us see us.
It begins with a simple story — a friend looking in the mirror and seeing nothing good left — and how someone else proved them wrong.

That moment becomes a catalyst for the narrator’s own realization:
we often judge ourselves through old, distorted eyes.

The verses capture the vulnerability of standing in front of a mirror and truly looking, not with habit or dismissal, but with honesty.
What appears at first is uncertainty: a version of oneself shaped by old beliefs, old words, and old wounds.
Writing down what he sees becomes a small but significant act — a short, raw, painfully honest list.
But the turning point comes when someone who loves him is given the same task.
Their list is full — full of qualities he cannot yet feel in himself: strength, warmth, courage, kindness, heart.

The chorus opens into a wide emotional space:
their reflection shows a man larger, brighter, and more human than the one he sees in his own mirror.
The second verse explores the painful truth behind it:
we learn ourselves small,
while others often see us in the light.

His blind spot becomes clear — he measures himself by his scars, not by what has survived.
The final message is quiet but powerful:
the path to healing begins when we learn to look at ourselves with the same compassion, truth, and clarity that others already do.

“Mirror Image” is a soft awakening —
a reminder that sometimes, the truth of who we are lives in the eyes of those who love us,
until we are ready to see it ourselves.

„Solange mein Herz weiß, wofür es schlägt“ – by Marco Memory**
Dieser Song ist ein Tagebucheintrag aus dem Innersten eines Mannes, der mitten im Schmerz steht – körperlich, seelisch, existenziell.

Marco Memory schreibt nicht über eine überwundene Krise, sondern aus dem Feuer heraus, während sich seine Krankheit schneller ausbreitet, als es irgendein Mensch ertragen sollte.
Es ist ein Lied über Nächte, die brennen.
Über Atemzüge, die weh tun.
Über Knochen, die brechen, und doch einen Willen, der nicht nachgibt.

Ein Lied darüber, wie ein Körper schwächer wird – und ein Herz gleichzeitig stärker.
Der Song erzählt von Angst, Müdigkeit und Ohnmacht, aber auch von einem Schwur, der nicht bricht: dem Versprechen, aufzustehen, so lange die Kraft reicht, und darüber hinaus.
Und er zeigt, was einen Menschen wirklich trägt:
die Bilder seiner Kinder, die Ziele, die noch vor ihm liegen, der Wunsch, ihnen Zukunft schenken zu dürfen.

Mit rauer Stimme, ruhigen Gitarren, tiefen Drums und intensiven spoken-word Momenten entsteht ein Stück, das weh tut –
aber Kraft gibt.

Ein Song für alle, die kämpfen.
Für alle, die jeden Tag neu entscheiden müssen, weiterzugehen.
Für alle, deren Herz weiß, wofür es schlägt.

Am Ende bleibt kein Pathos – nur ein Satz, der leuchtet wie ein letzter, aber unzerbrechlicher Funke:
„Ich bleib hier… solange mein Herz noch weiß, wofür es schlägt.“

So lange mein Herz weiß, wofür es schlägt

“Hormones” is a powerful, introspective modern rock track about the body’s automatic reactions — the biochemical echoes of old experiences that still shape how we feel today.
It’s a song about the invisible forces inside us: adrenaline, cortisol, oxytocin, dopamine — all the signals that once protected us, but now sometimes pull us back into emotional worlds that no longer exist.
The narrator describes how a single word, look, or tone can unleash a hormonal response that doesn’t match the present moment.
His body reacts as if danger were still here, even though his mind knows he’s no longer living in the past.
The chorus expands with emotional weight:
hormones can drag him down, make wounds louder, or freeze him in old reflexes — but they can also give strength, warmth, and hope.

The body isn’t just the place where trauma lives; it’s also the place where healing begins.
The second verse opens into softness, showing the other side of biology:
how being held releases warmth,
how success sparks lightness,
how a smile or a kind word can shift the entire emotional landscape.

The bridge delivers the central insight:
maybe it isn’t the world that triggers him —
maybe it’s an inner system still fighting a long-gone battle.
And the path forward is not fighting the body,
but teaching it what is true today.

By the final chorus, the message becomes clear:
hormones influence him, but they do not define him.
He is more than his pulse, more than his blood chemistry, more than his old fear.
He can learn to understand his body — and write new stories into it.

“Hormones” is an emotional conversation between a man and his own physiology —
a song about reclaiming control, compassion, and truth inside the very system that once overwhelmed him.

Hormones

Ich schreibe, was ich denke, fühle und erlebe. Schreiben hilft mir, Erinnerungen einzuordnen und ihnen Klarheit zu geben. Wenn Gefühle eine Melodie bekommen, entsteht etwas Wunderbares – eine Botschaft, die direkt ins Herz geht.

Für mich ist es ein Ausgleich, ein Stück Selbsttherapie. Die Texte sind ehrlich und frisch aus dem Herzen. Und wenn ich damit jemanden berühre, der genauso fühlt wie ich, freut es mich umso mehr.

Da ich selbst nicht gut singen kann, nutze ich KI für die Melodie und die Stimme. Ich bin dankbar für diese Möglichkeit, meinen Gefühlen Ausdruck zu verleihen.

Viel Freude beim Hören 🥰

Gruß, Marco Memory

PS: Ehrliche Kommentare sind willkommen – aber bitte keine Angebote, ich kaufe nichts.



I write what I think, feel, and experience. Writing helps me sort out memories and bring them clarity. When feelings find a melody, something wonderful is created – a message that speaks straight to the heart.

For me, it’s a balance, a bit of self-therapy. The lyrics are honest and straight from the heart. And if they touch someone who feels the same way I do, it makes me even happier.

Since I can’t sing well myself, I use AI for the melody and voice. I’m grateful for this opportunity to give my feelings a voice.

Enjoy listening 🥰

Best, Marco Memory
