[Limerence]

My heart starts pounding quicker
And skips a beat at times 
Am I in the picture
When will the stars align

Why does it feel like I don’t know your name
I don’t know what I should say
When did a want turn into all I need
Can you make me complete 

I’m consumed by the lie
That we will share our lives
All the space in my mind
Your silhouette with my desires 

Why does it feel like I won’t know your name
I don’t know what I should change
Since we met, I haven’t feel alive
Without you at my side

How can I let go
Without feeling alone…

Limerence

Lyrics:

FBI, NSA
Expecting us to tolerate
CIA, DoD
Allahu akbar, now you will flee

Go build a wall at the border
Iron curtains have been ordered
We’ll deport all the illegal
Mexicans that rape our people

I don’t know what to say

Government’s playing us
Paranoia and distrust
Underprivileged neighbourhoods
Serving for the greater good

The ruse of Paris don’t even bother
Give them Sprite instead of water
In the air, dust and smoke 
Keep on saying it’s a hoax

I don't know what to say

I don’t know what to say
About this mess called USA 
There's an orange in command
Situation out of hand

A small loan of a million dollars
If I could I’d date my daughter
Gun control will get us harmed
Can’t fight back if we’re unarmed

I don't know what to say

What To Say

No I don’t want to be alone 
Still I walk my way
This evening I’ve lost my soul 

When I don’t start to feel alive
All my shelter has died 
I never thought I’d decide

That I don’t mind

No I don’t want to realize
I’m embracing the ice
Silently screaming for help

The fire burning through my veins
As I struggle with pain
Gradually turning insane

The angels will crumble
The demons shall rise
I know I deserve this
I’ll pay the price

But I don’t mind

I don’t know what to believe
I don’t know what to believe
Please leave me alone
Please let me go
'Cause I don’t want the winter blues

But I don’t mind

Winter Blues ft. Sannuh

Interlude Of The Fading Sun

The end is not in sight
I violently sought out every fight
That’s a story I tell
About the way I always managed to send beasts back to hell
I wake up everyday
Asking myself what I’ve got to say
Nothing seems as fun to me

Please don’t give me 
Sighs right now
No I don’t have a life that is as thrilling as your life is somehow
Please just give me
Something now
No I don’t have the money to buy freedom as if it’s a big gown
I’ve got nothing to do

So no one else is near
I managed to run and disappear
I was down once again
But I finished the souls that had taken mine back then
The power was turned off
Still no sign of a take-off
Nothing seems as fun to me

Please don’t give me 
Sighs right now
No I don’t have a life that is as thrilling as your life is somehow
Please just give me
Something now
No I don’t have the money to buy freedom as if it’s a big gown
I’ve got nothing to do

“So I wrote this song when I was 12. The only thing was that I didn’t have a melody for the bridge. As you can see, I fixed that thing now. And you could think: didn’t I have something better to do? But that’s the problem. No I didn’t”

Please don’t give me 
Sighs right now
No I don’t have a life that is as thrilling as your life is somehow
Please just give me
Something now
No I don’t have the money to buy freedom as if it’s a big gown
I’ve got nothing to do
Please give me something to do

Something To Do

I don't want to hear that same old lie
It's as boring as a lullaby
You will never ever reach the sky-high

You are nothing but a pharisee
And falling short of some decency
You're descending like a pile of scree, horridly

You are dangerously ignorant
Who knew that failing is important
And through the ashes I see only vanity

You're contagious like a blight in sight
You're all alone and I wonder why
You're too busy fighting the wrong fights, am I right?

Say my name and I will tell the truth
'Bout the time that I was done with you
No I'm not hiding my point of view, are you too?

Why did it take you so long to see the light?

You are dangerously ignorant
Who knew that failing is important
And through the ashes I see only vanity

Blight In Sight

[Lyrics]

I am free
In this dream
Where I can’t be
I am blind
Until I seek
What I can’t find
I might’ve said 
The things you did not hear

How I defend
In my head 
The time misspend 
With silent songs
That wake me up 
Where I belong
I might’ve left 
The place I used to live

I’m staring away
Until I’ve run far enough
Those moments a day
When life’s distracting my thoughts

It’s always the same
The moment I close my eyes 
The visions will play
And I’ve never felt so alive

I am free
In this dream
Where I can’t be
I am blind
Until I seek
What I can’t find

Reverie

Lyrics:
Behold the silence
That rises among us
Our beating hearts
Define the rhythm’s march
I see a drought of words
And evading eyes
Atonal melodies
And a lack of harmony

Though I don’t want you to leave
I don’t want you to stay
I will not go on like this
Without some kind of change

I hear the noise that is
Coming from your mouth
I cannot make out
The words behind those sounds
I start to drift away
I cannot concentrate

Though I don’t want you to leave
I don’t want you to stay
I will not go on like this
Without some kind of change

I roll my eyes and I watch the sky
The minutes pass while I doubt my life
I don’t want to leave
I don’t want to stay
I mean no harm and I tried my best
It didn’t work, at least not just yet
I don’t want to leave
I don’t want to stay

Though I don’t want you to leave
I don’t want you to stay
I will not go on like this
Without some kind of change

Silence Talks

I hope you enjoy the songs I write on my guitar!
