„17“ – eine Sommererinnerung, die kleben bleibt.
Tom Berger erzählt in seinem Song von diesem einen Moment, in dem alles kippen kann – der Blick, das Lächeln, der Satz, den man doch noch sagt.
Eine Geschichte über junge Liebe, flirrende Hitze und den Mut, einfach loszulaufen – ohne Plan, ohne Gepäck, aber mit Herzklopfen.
Berlin im Hintergrund, die Zukunft vor der Brust – und siebzehn, für immer siebzehn.


“17” – a summer memory that sticks to your skin.
Tom Berger tells the story of that one moment when everything can shift – the glance, the smile, the words you finally say.
A song about young love, heat in the air, and the courage to just leave – no plan, no baggage, just a heartbeat and a girl.
Berlin in the background, the future in your chest – and seventeen, forever seventeen.

Siebzehn

Stay for the Silence

Perhaps we have begun to truly worship false idols - This was written over 30 years ago If you don't worry about what is in the distance you may wake up to find it on your doorstep - The Terminator is a haunting reflection on our deepening bond with technology — a prayer, a confession, and a warning. In this poem, circuits and veins intertwine, human thought and digital logic merge, and the speaker wonders if there is any turning back. It explores the paradox of a force that grows ever smaller yet more powerful, reshaping not just how we live, but what it means to be human.



False Idols

Two worlds collide under the glow of one heart — her country grit, his urban fire. Somewhere between barnlight and city neon, they find a rhythm no one can define. Crossfade Hearts is the story of balance, passion, and the space where music bridges the divide.

Anywhere You Were With Me is a story of fleeting love told through the glow of corner-store neon and rain-soaked nights. The lyrics capture small, ordinary moments — untied shoes, cheap magazines, a broken payphone — and turn them into timeless symbols of intimacy. It’s about holding on to the memory of someone who promised forever but only meant tonight, and realizing that even the simplest places can feel like home when you’re with the right person. Tender, cinematic, and deeply nostalgic.

Anywhere You Were With Me erzählt von einer vergänglichen Liebe im Licht einer Straßenecke, zwischen Neonröhren und Sommerregen. Die Lyrics verwandeln kleine Alltagsdetails — offene Schuhe, billige Magazine, ein kaputtes Münztelefon — in zeitlose Bilder der Nähe. Es geht um das Gefühl, dass selbst ein unscheinbarer Ort wie ein Zuhause wirken kann, wenn man ihn mit der richtigen Person teilt. Zart, filmisch und voller Nostalgie.

Anywhere you were with me

You showed up late with your shoes untied
Said the train was slow and the clerk was blind
We bought two sodas and a bag of chips
Sat on the curb till the neon clicked

And I swear the city grinned with us

Love was blue lights at the corner store
Cheap magazines by the sliding door
You said forever, but you meant tonight
And I didn’t mind, no I didn’t mind
I was just happy to be
Anywhere you were with me

You told a joke that you stole from your dad
I rolled my eyes but it wasn’t that bad
We watched the taxis pulling out of the rain
Counting headlights like they all knew our names

I didn’t care where we were going
Only that we weren’t done

Love was blue lights at the corner store
Cheap magazines by the sliding door
You said forever, but you meant tonight
And I didn’t mind, no I didn’t mind
I was just happy to be
Anywhere you were with me

Some people get roses and wine
We got receipts that fade in time
Some people get promises, carved into stone
We got a payphone that never worked
But felt like home

Love was blue lights at the corner store
Cheap magazines by the sliding door
You said forever, but you meant tonight
And I didn’t mind, no I didn’t mind
I still go back just to see
If the night still waits for me

I still wait outside that corner store


Anywhere you were with me

les nuits sont froides sans toi

Inspired by Three Magic Words, “Universal Mind” blends serene verses and soaring hooks into affirmations you can feel. Piano, strings, and modern pop drums carry lyrics about pure spirit, radical peace, and luminous abundance. These are activation anthems—meditation turning into momentum—meant for breathwork, prayer, and daily re-alignment. Not escape, but embodiment.

One With Everything (Female Vocal)

With "Undo," I wanted to write about that universal feeling of regret right after you've said something careless to someone you love. The entire production is built around the idea of reversing time—multiple guitar riffs are played backwards, the main vocal hook is chopped and glitched like a broken memory, and old-fashioned tape rewinding reels kick in at various points. The verses are quiet and full of tension, but the chorus explodes into this huge, emotional drop because that feeling of desperation is massive. It's an apology and a fantasy, a song for anyone who's ever wished they could just hit a button and take it all back.

Lyrics: [Verse 1]
Silence in the car, feels so cold tonight
Drivin' through the city but I'm runnin' from the light
Of the words I said, hangin' in the air
I see 'em in the way you're starin' out of there
I'm tryna find a road that can take us back in time
To the moment right before I crossed the line
'Cause every mile we're drivin' is a mile we're far apart
And I'm lookin' for a button I can press to restart...
I just wish that I could hit undo
Erase the last five minutes, take 'em back from you
Oh, I'd rewind the tape, I would change the scene
And swallow all the words that were careless and mean
Can we just undo?
Pretend it wasn't true?
I know that I can't fix it, but I'm askin' you
Can we just undo?

[Verse 2]
I see your reflection in the window glass
A perfect thing I shattered, hopin' it would pass
Now I'm countin' all the pieces, hopin' I can save
This love that you so freely, so honestly gave
And I hate the man I was for a minute on that clock
The one who had the key and then went and broke the lock
'Cause every word is playin' on a loop inside my head
And I'd give anything to say something else instead...
I just wish that I could hit undo
Erase the last five minutes, take 'em back from you
Oh, I'd rewind the tape, I would change the scene
And swallow all the words that were careless and mean
Can we just undo?
Pretend it wasn't true?
I know that I can't fix it, but I'm askin' you
Can we just undo?
Is it too late to take it back?
Is there a way to get on track?
'Cause you're the only thing that's ever felt like home...
Don't wanna do this all alone.
I just wish that I could hit undo
Erase the last five minutes, take 'em back from you
Oh, I'd rewind the tape, I would change the scene
And swallow all the words that were careless and mean
Can we just undo?
Pretend it wasn't true?
I know that I can't fix it, but I'm askin' you
Can we just undo?

Undo

If love's a secret prison, then you hold the key, and you're the only reason why I'm breaking free 


Can I take you home tonight?
All my fears and all my flights 
I'm so alone, am I just lost inside?

What your longing does to me, I just can't describe 
 


It's not so hard to see I'm falling in love with  you(Take me home tonight)
