The Compassion Mantra

“Our daughter said the most fascinating sentence for turning the room light off, which was “turn the dark on”. I absolutely loved this perspective and had to include the line as a lyric; this spark inspired the song and its direction. Echoing those late night wonderings when the mind is overactive I use insomnia as an acronym in the chorus to ponder if people are asleep in life and need to be inspired to wake up and really live? My hope in both the music and lyrics is to capture the restlessness, fatigue and high energy of insomnia.”  

turn on the dark again. Insomnia. 

I’m here, yeah, turn on the dark again 
Open red lightning eyes, coffee adrenaline 
Maybe I can catch some peace tonight?
If I don’t sleep before I wake then insanity is coming, right?
I never sleep or maybe need inspirational awakenings? 

Insomnia 
Insomnia
I never sleep or maybe need inspirational awakenings? 

Shut eyes gone just dusty chunky robot eyes 
I am meant to sleep by design, I’m not doing fine 
No way, no way
I don’t want to process the day anymore
I want to possess the night and see my dreams 
I never sleep or maybe need inspirational awakenings? 

Can I sleep tonight? 
Twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder what you are 

(Insomnia, Insomnia)

Can I sleep tonight?

turn on the dark again. Insomnia. w/ OUR DAUGHTER

Une fusion méditative de traditions anciennes et de sons contemporains. Des voix masculines profondes récitant le Sūtra du cœur en français, portées par des battements hypnotiques de trance électronique. Des basses profondes et résonnantes s'entrelacent avec des textures atmosphériques d'accordéon et des sonorités éthérées d'Ondes Martenot, créant un pont sonore entre spiritualité ancestrale et modernité française.

Ce voyage sonore vous invite à la contemplation de la vacuité et de l'interconnexion de toutes choses, guidé par le mantra éternel: "Gate gate pāragate pārasaṃgate bodhi svāhā" (Allé, allé, allé au-delà, allé complètement au-delà, éveil, ainsi soit-il).

Une expérience transcendante où les frontières culturelles s'effacent dans l'harmonie universelle de la conscience méditative.

Meine Tabakpfeife

😅😆 Friend of mine wrote this😆

[Intro]
You were my past and I was your last
Can we make it fast? 
I have to leave soon
My love's out of time
Can you still be mine?
I would draw the line
But I'm too in tune

[Verse]
Yeah
I wish it were me
Yeah
I wish it were me
I know I could be everything you need
Oh
If it were me
Yeah
Yeah
I could be your muse
You wouldn't need booze
We wouldn't need it
We wouldn't need it
I'd help you quit smoking
Your heart would be open
Yeah
I'd never close it
Oh
You'd never close it

[Chorus]
But it's too late
Baby
Too late to love me
Oh
It's too late
Baby
Too late to love me
Oh
It's too late
Baby
Too late to love me
Oh
It's too late
Baby
Too late to love me

[Verse 2]
You'd let me walk out that door
You let me go when you coulda had more
We both know the deal
And we know the score
If you loved me like that
Why didn't you before?

[Chorus]
'Cause it's too late
Baby
Too late to love me
Oh
It's too late
Baby
Too late to love me
Oh
It's too late
Baby
Too late to love me
Oh
It's too late
Baby
Too late to love me

[Bridge]
I waited for you to
(Say you want me)
I made myself believe
(That you love me)
But now it's just too late
(Too late to love me)
So don't you
Don't you say that you miss me
When you were never here
And it don't matter
Anyway
You made your choice

[Last-Chorus]
So don't you say
Say you want me
Don't you say
You think you love me
'Cause now it's just too late
Too late to love me
Too late
Too late
Too late

[Outro]
Now that I'm done
I moved on
I tried to love you
Baby
I waited so long
So long
Too long
Oh
Oh
Oh
You had my heart in your hands
You had my heart in your hands

But it's too late
Too late to love me

Too Late To Love Me

Like an Angel

When I say “Hellfire,” I meant the Hellfire missile.
If the U.S. military, CIA, or any elite force needs something erased; instantly, no warnings, no mistakes, the Hellfire is the go to.
Laser marks the target.
They launch.
The missile locks on and strikes with pinpoint precision.
Whatever it hits; car, building, or person; is vaporized.
All that’s left is rubble and smoke.
If you need something wiped off the map, Hellfire is the modern delete button.

Xak Stahl: Alchemist of Sound, Architect of Emotion

Xak Stahl is a genre-blurring music artist, sonic storyteller, and relentless experimenter. Every track he creates is a new world—a kaleidoscope of indie folk, alt-pop, electronica, and global flavors—infused with raw emotion and boundless curiosity. Xak’s music isn’t just heard; it’s felt.

From Shadow to Spotlight

For Xak, music is metamorphosis. His journey began in the shadows, transmuting heartbreak and struggle into songs that glow with hope. Early anthems like “Neon Dreams” and “Rising Through the Darkness” invite listeners to find their own light. His newest project, Major Arcana, channels the mysteries of the Tarot—each song an archetype, each lyric a step along the path from the Fool’s first leap to the wisdom of The World.

More Than Music: A Multisensory Universe

But Xak isn’t confined to sound. As a visual artist and writer, he crafts immersive stories that spill across genres and languages—sometimes haunting, sometimes playful, always honest. Whether he’s conjuring lush soundscapes, weaving bilingual lyrics, or creating striking visuals, Xak’s art dares you to feel deeper and dream wilder.

An Invitation to Transformation

Join Xak Stahl on a sonic odyssey that blurs borders—between genres, between artforms, between you and the music. Each release is an invitation to explore, to heal, to become. For Xak, every song is a spell, every album a universe. The only question is: are you ready to step inside?
