The song reflects on a past love that ended in heartbreak. The narrator expresses feelings of loss and regret, describing love as a losing game. They remember the joy of the relationship but feel left behind and overwhelmed by sadness. The verses depict the emptiness and longing they experience, while the chorus highlights the contrast between the narrator's sorrow and their former partner's apparent happiness. Overall, the song captures the pain and disillusionment of losing at the game of love.

lyrics -

In the silence I reach for air  
Ur absence hangs heavy in this despair  
We're tangled hearts with threads so fine  
Yet every whispered dream pushes us out of line  
The laughter echoes in this empty hall  
A ghost of the love that once filled these walls  
I trace the outlines of our faded smiles 
But fear creeps in like shadows for miles
-
Promises once spoken now tremble in doubt 
How do I reach you when you're drifting out?  
Each word feels fragile a dance on the edge
I'm standing here hoping caught on this ledge  
The clock ticks slowly with each passing breath 
Counting the moments that lead towards regret 
-
Can we bridge this distance mend every seam?  
Or are we just echoes of a broken dream?  
In the silence of nights I’ll stand and I'll wait  
For the dawn of our hearts to choose love over fate
Over fate
Weight of every heartbeat a whisper of prayer  
In the silence I reach for the love we still share
-
Promises once spoken now tremble in doubt 
How do I reach you when you're drifting out?  
Each word feels fragile a dance on the edge
I'm standing here hoping caught on this ledge  
The clock ticks slowly with each passing breath 
Counting the moments that lead towards regret 
The clock ticks slowly
How do I reach you when you're drifting out?
Counting the moments 
How do I reach you when you're drifting out?

Until I Met You

Painting Back Frowns © Byron Gene Manering

The clown got one over on me
Man, I don’t like getting beat.
But you nursed my broken ego
Got me back on my feet

I called his bluff
But he held justice in his hand
While the sheriff and his minions
Did dirty deeds, for the man

Take me home
Tuck me into bed
Fluff the pillow 
Up under my head, cuz
I don’t take it easy getting shucked like that
And tomorrow yeah, ill be raging back
Whiskey me up to talk me down
Cause I keep washing his clown face off
And he keeps painting back frowns

He wields power over justice 
Likes hurtin folks just for fun. 
He stripped them of their rights
He might as wellav used a gun
                                 
I called his bluff
But he held justice in his hand
While the sheriff and his minions
Did dirty deeds, for the man

Take me home
Tuck me into bed
Fluff the pillow 
Up under my head, cuz
I don’t take it easy getting shucked like that
And tomorrow yeah, ill be raging back
Whiskey me up to talk me down
Cause I keep washing his clown face off
And he keeps painting back frowns

I’ve been down this road before
Taking clowns on at the top
Last time I was a winner
This time, got my head chopped

Take me home
Tuck me into bed
Fluff the pillow 
Up under my head, cuz
I don’t take it easy getting shucked like that
And tomorrow yeah, ill be raging back
Whiskey me up to talk me down
Cause I keep washing his clown face off
And he keeps painting back frowns

I’ve been down this road before
Taking clowns on at the top
Last time I was a winner
This time got my head chopped

Take me home
Tuck me into bed
Fluff the pillow 
Up under my head, cuz
I don’t take it easy getting shucked like that
And tomorrow yeah, ill be raging back
Whiskey me up to talk me down
Cause I keep washing his clown face off
And he keeps painting back frowns

Painting Back Frowns

I've danced
With my demons in my bones
Asking "is it time to come home?"
I think pretty sure'd you know
My heart's not made of gold

You saw me
With my jaw chained to my bed
You took the crown off of my head
Replaced it with your hands instead
Then you said

"When you go
Bury me in your wedding dress
Call me your missus
You're fresh out of bone
You'll like me
You latch onto every word I've said
My skin's made out of your formal breath
I'm your wife
I'm the deep love of a death"

That scarlet woman
I didn't see her coming
Tempted me down from Hell
Singing
Took one look into her eyes
Heaven's soon to realize
My heart was a mistake she was worth making
But we're saying

"When you go
Bury me in your wedding dress
Call me your missus
You're fresh out of bone
You'll like me
You latch onto every word I've said
My skin's made out of your formal breath
I'm your wife
I'm the deep love of a death"

Good Luck

Jag hittade min första scifi bok och sedan var jag fast. Sedan dess har jag läst och sett allt jag kommer över i den genren. Texten följer här nedan:

I found my first sci-fi book and I was hooked. Since then I have read and watched everything I can come across in that genre. The text follows below:

[Verse]
I dreamed of stars, in distant space
Comets through, the void I'd chase 
Fly to planets, past our sight
Strange worlds, in radiant light

[Verse 2]
I read of futures, bright and bold
Unheard stories, that were told
A heros tale, not yet unfold
Forever drawn, to a star of gold

[Chorus]
And I'm flying flying, flying free
Far beyond, the sun you see
And I'm flying flying, flying free
finding worlds, new to me
in a nebula,  vast crimson sky
C-beams glitter, in my eye
Use the force, you got to try
Board the ship, lift of and fly 
(Just fly) (Just fly)

[Verse 3]
looking out, at starry might
When I warp, they all go white
In a wormhole, time bends tight
Engines roar and win the fight

[Bridge]
A voyage starting, at the gates of Mars 
Exploring clusters, of newborn stars 
Hunting matter, faster than light
all alone, in this unending night

[Outro]
[acapella]
(Open the pod bay doors, Hal.)
(fortytwo is the answer)
(Fear is the little death)
(Doors and Corners, kid.)
(May the Force be with you)
(oh my God - it’s full of stars)
[end]
