Name: The Missing Minute by Staying Alive
Duration: 3 min 7 s
Description: A raw acoustic protest song calling out the “missing minute” in the Epstein jail footage and the deeper questions it raises about justice, power, and transparency. A gritty ballad for those who still question the script.

A brooding, poetic lament for justice lost and voices forgotten.
“Dark Horizons” conjures the shadowy alleys of Chancery Lane and echoes of the broken legal system through haunting lyrics and minimalist instrumentation. A meditation on guilt, memory, and buried truths, this piece unfolds like a ghost story whispered in candlelight—a voice trembling through marbled halls, seeking justice in the silence.

Step into a world where fog shrouds the truth and sorrow clings like chains. Dark Horizons is a haunting, narrative-driven ballad weaving together themes of grief, injustice, and the relentless erosion of hope. With vivid lyrical imagery—“sightless justice,” “a mother’s guilt,” and “a lover’s ghost”—this track channels the bleak poetry of Dickensian London with emotional weight and stark beauty. At its core lies the figure of Esther, a fragile light in a world of fading dreams and unburied shame. Perfect for listeners drawn to atmospheric storytelling and raw emotional depth.

Dark horizons

Ein Song wie eine Sommernacht – voller Fernweh, flüsternder Wälder und goldener Sterne. Inspiriert von Joseph von Eichendorffs Gedicht (1834), erzählt Sehnsucht von der stillen Kraft der Träume und dem Wunsch, einfach aufzubrechen. Zwischen Posthorn und Mondschein, Mmh Mmh Mmh Mmh – ein musikalischer Spaziergang ins Herz der Romantik.

A song like a summer night – full of longing, whispering woods, and golden stars. Inspired by the poetry of Joseph von Eichendorff (1834), Sehnsucht captures the quiet power of dreams and the urge to escape. Between distant horns and moonlit gardens, Mmh Mmh Mmh Mmh – a musical walk into the heart of romantic yearning.

Bonfim City (Acoustic)

Uber at half past grim

(verse 1)
this apathy isn’t good for me
swore i was shot 
 and you had the gun
 
friendly’s fire shit
but it goes both ways
yeah, you and me 
we both got hit

(chorus)
ooooOoooOoh
i’m a bad liar, lately on fire
ooooOoooOoh
when i said i was done
did you call my bluff??

oooooOOOOH 

(verse 2)
we put it to bed
waking up at 3am
where you used to lay

you’re in all my dreams
you’re always mad at me
is it just guilt

(chorus)
ooooOooooh
i’m a bad liar, lately on fire
ooooOoooOoh
when i said i was done
you didn’t call my bluff!!!

oooooooooh
ooooooooh

(bridge)
i’m a good liar
but i meant it when i said
i don’t hate you but i wish you were DEAD

so i could have something to mourn
so i couldn’t want you anymore
so i could mean it
when i said i was done
and you wouldn’t 
CALL
MY
BLUFF

this apathy will kill me
