New single from the next album!

I grew up on a street in Western Helsinki called "Ruusutarhantie", which means "Rose Garden Road". I recently visited that place for nostalgia's sake when I went to visit my family back home in Finland last December.

That place triggered so many memories. They had cut down a huge linden tree that used to be there, but otherwise the place looked exactly as I remembered it from childhood. The houses appeared to be smaller though, but maybe I've just grown bigger.

Enjoy the track. Official album announcement in the next week or so.

Rose Garden

This is the bird
the one that covered 
the town in shadow

Hark the herald devil sang
its songs of death and peace

look at her wings!
oh! her claws they sting
and body leaves my soul!
death, why are you so beautiful?

Hark the herald devil sang
its songs of death and peace

I'm glad you exist 

Glad that you soldier on even when the world is wrong
glad when you sit down and serenade the world with song 
glad when you write your thoughts glad when you share your stuff 
They're really quite thoughtful things and i find that really cool 

glad that you never let the world make you bad too 
glad that you're always fighting against the worse parts of you 
glad you exist and make the world a better place
glad you're not an asshole even though that would make sense 

glad that you don't want to be a part of status quo 
seeking ways to be unique and dancing to your soul 
glad that you have the strength and grace to carry on 
glad that you don't talk too loud on your telephone 

glad for your hospitality and humanity 
glad for the stories and your honesty 
glad that you're living and i hope that goes on and on 
glad that i had a chance to write this sappy song 

Guh. I need to wash my mouth out with some rum and smoke and rrrrrr. 
I feel like a puked rainbows.

Glad You Exist

listen silly people love is just the best 
ride the silly waves, let it burn your chest 
loose and silly people, sleeping all around 
saying it all means nothing, biggest lie around 

shuffle to the left shuffle to the right 
dark eye circles, not a pretty sight 
running away from home, running away from thought
don't be so stupid i think you're just fucking lost 

listen silly people, these words i sing they're true 
always pay attention to the things you do 
loose and silly people, messing all around 
falling deep in darkness, till you hit the ground 

shuffle to the right shuffle to the left
after a rock star love life, you're feeling dead 
running away from home, running away from thought
don't be so stupid i think you're just fucking lost 

running out of stanzas, verses they come in two 
just like you and I, heartbreak it comes in two 
just like some little pieces, of a stupid thing 
saying it wasn't worth it, don't be a drama queen

shuffle to the left shuffle to the right 
dark eye circles, it's not a pretty sight 
running way from home, running away from thought
don't be so stupid i think you're just fucking lost

Listen Silly People

Lyrics:

I am losing my balance
falling off my feet
I am losing my balance
running from the heat
I am losing my balance
        losing my balance

I was busy growing up, I was busy showing up
Too busy living my life, to keep an eye on my mind
When I noticed things were stacking up, I was already packing up
Too busy living my life, to keep an eye on my mind

I am losing my balance
falling off my feet
I am losing my balance
running from the heat
I am losing my balance
        losing my balance
 

One minute feeling high, the next one starting to cry
I've been working for years, it's all worth nothing it appears
Asking myself why, is happiness so shy
I've been working for years, it's all worth nothing it appears


I am losing my balance
falling off my feet
I am losing my balance
running from the heat
I am losing my balance
        losing my balance


I'm sitting down and I'm closing my eyes
I breathe in, I breathe out
Meditation leaving no room for doubt
Breathing in, breathing out

I won't be loosing my balance
I'm putting down my feet
I won't be loosing my balance
I will face the heat
I will rise to the challenge
	rise to the challenge

I won't be loosing my balance
I'm putting down my feet
I won't be loosing my balance
I will face the heat
I will rise to the challenge

Losing My Balance

Musik

First song I ever wrote, started off on the Uke


I burned a lot of bridges, but the fire never kept me warm
I used a lot of people but I swear I didn't mean no harm

Though now I'm trying to change the way I am
I still run in circles, playing the same old games

I carry a lot of scars on my soul and on my skin
Not daring to reach for the stars, as if it was a sin

Though now I'm trying to change the way I am
I still am the meanest while talking to myself

No matter what, what will come my way
I will not give up, oh, I swear I'll change

I will love me, love me, love me, love, love me, love me - oh
love me, love me, love me, love me, love me, love me so!

Every day has challenges but I'm used to go through hell
Love is a decision, so I said: "Oh well!

My skin, my bones, my heart my soul,
I will love it all just fine,
I don't need a lover by my side!"

Coz I love me, love me, love me, love me, love me, love me - oh
love me, love me, love me, love me, love me, love me so!

Loving Me

What you got 
Just what you got 
oh what you got 
oh what did it cost 
what did it cost you precious little thing
Just about everything 


Bleed eachothers' soul 
maybe you're all 
into this tragic scene
where you run eachother through 

Blinded by the hope 
you'll both wake up at home 
that Romeo and Juliet are playing harps 
and not lost in halls of stone 

Broken hearts make for broken parts
and terrible poetry 
You should've taken whatever you got 
life is not a TV screen 

At the end of the road 
it's just the same though 
What is broken cannot be fixed 
And you've broken so many things

Loving Me
