This song was written in the summer of 2010 while I was on summer break from exams at the Academy of Music in Sarajevo. Although I have been writing songs since I was 14 years old, I believe this one to be one of my most mature and ambitious efforts up to that point. In the autumn of 2018, while embarking on the adventure of not only writing but also producing my songs, I chose it to be a starting point and a bridge to everything that will follow from this point on.

Learn To Let Go

This song was written in November and December of 2018 while I was experimenting with various ways to intertwine lyrics that possesed my mind at the time with atmosphere of electronic loops and percussions. The song is about meaning of time and ways in which someone else's right timing can hurt us by being the wrong timing for ourselves.

Time (Demo)

As I am finishing my new track which will be a bit more light and dance oriented, I couldn't help not upload the instrumental version of Time. Here's the link for you to listen to the original version of Time with vocals:

Time (Demo - INSTRUMENTAL)

This song was written and recorded in August 2020, with some additional production done throughout September and October 2020. It is a simply-crafted, happy retro-sounding tune with some very serious lyrics. 
In October 2020 the song made it to the Semi Finals of the Retro Category on UK Songwriting Contest 2020, one of the leading international events for songwriters worldwide and my biggest success on this competition so far! 
Enjoy!

LYRICS:
You say black, I go with grey,
Don't wanna be just another cliche.
You cry with the rain and wait for the sun,
I soak my feet up in this puddle of fun.

You and me,
Oh how different two worlds can be,
Oh, you and me,
We slip through the cracks of the in-between, the in-between.

I feel like I'm drownin' but everything's great,
Don't wanna rain on a pretty parade.
Too strong to escape, too weak to pull through,
Don't wanna seem like I'll be bailing on you.

You and me,
Oh how different two worlds can be,
Oh, you and me,
We slip through the cracks of the in-between, the in-between

Of what could have been...

Maybe we're just too good to be true
Or maybe we're just afraid of mistakes.
Don't wanna take it all out on you 
So, tell me how much more can a lover take
Don't wanna take it all out on you
So tell me, is it worth it, should I take the bait?

You and me,
Oh how different two worlds can be,
Oh, you and me,
We slip through the cracks of the in-between.
You and me,
Oh, how different two worlds can be, 
You and me,
We slip through the cracks of the in-between.
You and me,
(Maybe we're just too good to be true)
We let it all slide so easily.
(Or maybe we're just afraid of mistakes)
You and me,
(Don't wanna take it all out on you)
We slip through the cracks of the in-between, the in-between
(Tell me how much more can a lover take, can a lover take)

Of what could have been, what could have been...

Different Worlds

Songwriter, musicologist and music teacher based in Bosnia and Herzegovina. I have been writing songs since I was 14 years old and decided to start producing and sharing them with the world since 2018. In my songs I put heavy emphasis on intertwining text and music arrangement as well as telling a story shaped as contemplations about various life situations we all face.
