Streetlights bleeding through the rain-streaked glass
Another Tuesday fades into the past
You paint your promises in shades of grey
Beautiful mirage that fades... away

Dancing on a floor of fractured trust
Our faded masterpiece turning into dust

This is our velvet goodbye - silent, sweet decay
No screaming words, just watching colors drain away
Final sip of wine, neon-haunted room
Chasing ghosts of forgotten blooms
Velvet goodbye - softest, sharpest pain
Beautiful ending in the pouring rain

I trace the silence hanging in the air
The ghost of laughter that we used to share
Midnight drives and stolen time - perfect crime
Now the echo's all that's left to hold
Story that's already growing cold

This is our velvet goodbye - (mmm) silent, sweet decay
No screaming words, just watching colors drain (fade) away
Final sip of wine, neon-haunted room (haunted room)
Chasing ghosts of forgotten blooms
Velvet goodbye - softest, sharpest pain (oh, the pain)
Beautiful ending in the pouring rain (rain, rain)

In the rain...
In the rain...
Velvet... velvet...

Mmm... goodbye...
Fading, fading away
Velvet...

Lost in the G part 2

Lost in the G part 1

when everything falls apart, you find out what you’re really made of. 💔🔥 A story of pain, lessons, and strength.

Life Upside Down

No trace 

[Verse 1]
Your love was a slow burn, sweet and toxic,
Drippin’ down my veins, I couldn’t stop it.
Every word you whispered felt like truth,
Till I woke up cold, detoxin’ from you.
[Pre-Chorus]
You were my medicine and my disease,
Fed me the high, then watched me bleed.
Now I’m learning how to breathe again,
Without your ghost beneath my skin.
[Chorus]
Now I’m clean, no trace of your taste,
No more running back to that place.
Took all your poison, I made it through,
Now the fever’s gone, and so are you.
No more nights I confuse love and abuse,
I’m finally free — I’m finally through.
[Verse 2]
Your touch was a fever I kept craving,
A twisted kind of love worth saving.
You left me hollow, still I’d crawl,
Like a fool still waiting for withdrawal.
[Pre-Chorus]
You were my fix, my fire, my sin,
I lost myself just to let you in.
Now the silence feels like truth,
And freedom tastes like something new.
[Chorus]
Now I’m clean, no trace of your taste,
No more running back to that place.
Took all your poison, I made it through,
Now the fever’s gone, and so are you.
No more nights I confuse love and abuse,
I’m finally free — I’m done with you.
[Bridge]
Every scar reminds me where I’ve been,
Every tear was my medicine.
Now I’m standing on my own two feet,
Your ghost can’t pull me underneath.
[Final Chorus]
Now I’m clean, my veins brand new,
Was blind before, now I see through.
You were the lesson I had to lose,
Now I’m healed — I’m done with you.
Yeah, I’m clean from the pain I used to choose,
I’m free, I’m free from you.

Off My Chest

A simple soul 2-stepper romantic homage to 80s tracks. Returning to the love and the groove of the classic late night grooves that built a whole baby boom by themselves.
