LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Wake up early, gotta catch the bus
Mom's on your case, "Don't forget your lunch"
You're stuck in traffic, and you're feeling whack
Just trying to get to school, but it's taking right back 

[Chorus]
You gotta fight for your right to chill
Don't let the system get you down, stand still
You gotta fight for your right to be free
Don't let the man bring you to your knees 

[Verse 2]
Teacher's talking, but you're not listening
You're stuck in detention, and it's really glistening
Principal's breathing down your neck
But you're just trying to survive, and get respect 

[Chorus]
You gotta fight for your right to chill
Don't let the system get you down, stand still
You gotta fight for your right to be free
Don't let the man bring you to your knees 

[Bridge]
You're just trying to live your life
But everyone's trying to tell you what's right
You gotta take a stand, and make some noise
Fight for your rights, and let your voice be heard, yo! 

[Chorus]
You gotta fight for your right to chill
Don't let the system get you down, stand still
You gotta fight for your right to be free
Don't let the man bring you to your knees

You Gotta Fight

Immerse yourself in a haunting tale of disillusionment and disconnection, where the pursuit of fame and fortune has led to a suffocating sense of emptiness, and the struggle to break free from the shackles of expectation and find one's true self has become a desperate cry for escape. 

This song, explores the theme of fame, destroying one's life when a celebrity is consumed by the pressures and emptiness of celebrity life. The lyrics delve into the feelings of disconnection, suffocation, and desperation that can come with losing one's identity in the spotlight. The song's atmosphere is dark and haunting, with a focus on powerful vocals and a mix of heavy and atmospheric instrumentation, reminiscent of Evanescence's style. The "veil" represents the mask or facade that the celebrity wears, hiding their true self beneath the surface.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
In the city of angels, where dreams are made to die
A canvas of faces, with eyes that pass me by
I'm chasing the spotlight, a fleeting work of art
But in the silence, I'm losing my heart 

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm suffocating under the weight of my name
A prisoner of fortune, with no one to claim
The emptiness is echoing, through every hollowed hall
I'm searching for a refuge, from the darkness that enthralls 

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm drowning beneath the veil, of a world that's not my own
A stranger in the mirror, with a face that's turned to stone
I'm searching for a way out, from the shadows that I've made
Beneath the veil, where the darkness is my shade 

[Verse 2]
I'm a slave to the rhythm, of a beat that's not my own
A puppet on the strings, of a master that I've never known
I'm hiding behind the mask, of a persona that I've made
But in the quiet moments, I'm screaming to break free from this charade 

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm suffocating under the weight of my name
A prisoner of fortune, with no one to claim
The emptiness is echoing, through every hollowed hall
I'm searching for a refuge, from the darkness that enthralls 

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm drowning beneath the veil, of a world that's not my own
A stranger in the mirror, with a face that's turned to stone
I'm searching for a way out, from the shadows that I've made
Beneath the veil, where the darkness is my shade 

[Bridge]
Maybe in the darkness, I'll find my way back home
Where the silence is my solace, and I am not alone
But until then, I'm trapped, in this endless, sleepless night
A ghost in the machine, with no escape in sight 

[Chorus]
Oh, I'm drowning beneath the veil, of a world that's not my own
A stranger in the mirror, with a face that's turned to stone
I'm searching for a way out, from the shadows that I've made
Beneath the veil, where the darkness is my shade


[Outro]
In the fading light, I'll find my way
Through the shadows that have held me at bay
I'll rise up from the darkness, and I'll be reborn
And maybe someday, I'll find my heart, and I'll be home

Beneath the Veil

LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Fallen broken crawling in the dark
Silent screams echo, tearing me apart
Chains of fear ripping at my soul
In the shadows searching for control 

[Verse 2]
Voices whisper secrets in my ear
Shattered dreams remind me why I'm here
Bleeding heart painted on the wall
Rise from ashes hear the battle call 

[Chorus]
Stand tall rise above it all
Fight the demons, never let me fall
Broken wings learn to fly again
From the ashes I’ll be born again 

[Verse 3]
Haunted past shadows chase me still
Lonely streets, the moonlight standing still
In the darkness, I can see the light
With each heartbeat, I embrace the fight 

[Chorus]
Stand tall rise above it all
Fight the demons, never let me fall
Broken wings learn to fly again
From the ashes I’ll be born again 

[Outro]
Rising echo in the symphony of pain
Glitch and stutter pulse through every vein
In relentless beats, I find my refrain
In this chaos I’ll remain



Fight the Demons

This song is a dark, seductive, and intense exploration of desire, passion, and the all-consuming power of love. With its haunting instrumentation and captivating vocals, the song invites listeners to surrender to their deepest longings and embrace the thrill of reckless abandon.

LYRICS: 

[Instrumental Intro] 

[Chorus] 
I could be your love
Don't be scared 
Kiss your world goodbye 

[Verse 1] 
Five-four 
Let's go 
Just make the call 
Three-two One 
Let's go 
All bets are off 

[Chorus] 
I could be your love 
Do you dare? 
Kiss your world goodbye 

[Instrumental] 

[Verse 2] 
Your eyes burn black 
Undress their souls 
Such beauty 
Such cruel control 
Everlasting pleasure 
Forever falling for you 

[Bridge] 
In the shadows, we'll collide 
Our hearts beating, side by side 
The world outside will fade to black 
As we surrender, our love will attack

[Outro) 
Kiss your world goodbye 
Forever falling, we'll never deny 
The love we share, the hearts we've sold 
In this endless night, our love will unfold 

[Instrumental] 

[Bridge] 
In the shadows, we'll collide 
Our hearts beating, side by side 
The world outside will fade to black 
As we surrender, our love will attack

[Outro) 
Kiss your world goodbye 
Forever falling, we'll never deny...


I Could Be Your Love

The song is a haunting and emotional ballad that explores the pain of separation and the fear of loss that comes with loving someone who's going off to war. On the surface, it's a heartfelt tribute to the brave men and women who serve their country, and the loved ones they leave behind. However, beneath the surface, the song also touches on the emotional toll of waiting and worrying, the struggle to cope with uncertainty and danger, and the longing and yearning that remains when a loved one is away.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Clouds

Spies 

[Pre-Chorus]
And you never loved me
Sweet kisses on my enemy
Was doing fine
But laced with the enemy
Spoke cool
Meant well
About the lie that
We walked hand in hand 
like ghosts in a wasteland 

[Chorus]
I march through the front lines
I'm burning away 
the pain you left behind
Headed into the sunshine
Go on
I'm taking it all that's left of me 

[Verse 2]
(Soldier at heart)
Soldier
Head
Mind
Dead
Time
Soldier 

[Pre-Chorus]
And you never loved me
Sweet kisses on my enemy
Was doing fine
But laced with the enemy
Spoke cool
Meant well
About the lie that
We walked hand in hand 
like ghosts in a wasteland 

[Chorus]
I march through the front lines
I'm burning away 
the pain you left behind
Headed into the sunshine
Go on
I'm taking it all that's left of me

This song is a heart-wrenching exploration of betrayal, loss, and the shattered remains of a once-strong friendship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a bond broken by lies, deceit, and shattered promises, leaving only emptiness, pain, and regret in its wake. 

The song's narrative delves into the emotions of a person struggling to come to terms with the betrayal, grappling with memories of the past, and questioning whether the relationship can ever be salvaged. 

Throughout the song, the pain and anguish are palpable, with the lyrics conveying a sense of desperation, longing, and ultimately, resignation. The song's haunting melody and poignant lyrics make for a powerful and emotional listening experience.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Whispers in the dark, a friendship torn apart
Secrets shared, now scattered to the wind
Your words, once warm, now cut like sharpened shards
This betrayal, how could it begin? 

[Chorus]
Falling through the cracks of broken promises
Shadows of the past, they haunt me still
Your lies, they echo in this emptiness
A void that time may never fill 

[Verse 2]
Memories fade to gray, trust turns to dust
The bond we shared, now withered and decayed
In silence, I scream, my heart readjusts
To a world where your loyalty has strayed 

[Chorus]
Falling through the cracks of broken promises
Shadows of the past, they haunt me still
Your lies, they echo in this emptiness
A void that time may never fill 

[Verse 3]
In mirrors of regret, I see your face
A reflection of the friend I thought I knew
Now trapped within this cold, forsaken place
Where once stood faith, now only pain rings true 

[Chorus]
Falling through the cracks of broken promises
Shadows of the past, they haunt me still
Your lies, they echo in this emptiness
A void that time may never fill 

[Bridge]
Can we rebuild what's been destroyed?
Or are we lost in this emotional void?
The weight of betrayal, it crushes my soul
Leaving nothing but darkness, swallowing me whole 

[Outro]
In the end, I stand alone
Amidst the ruins of what we've known
A lesson learned in trust misplaced
A scar that time cannot erase


Shattered Trust

Broken Promises

This song is a haunting and introspective exploration of the paradox of finding oneself in a beautiful and idyllic setting, yet still feeling trapped, lost, and haunted by inner demons. The lyrics weave a complex tapestry of emotions, describing a sense of disconnection between the external world and internal turmoil. 

The song's protagonist is torn between the allure of freedom and the weight of past memories and pain, struggling to reconcile the beauty of their surroundings with the darkness that lurks within. As the song unfolds, it becomes clear that even in the most perfect and serene of settings, one's inner struggles and pain cannot be escaped. 

The result is a song that is both deeply personal and universally relatable, a powerful exploration of the human condition that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt lost, alone, or disconnected from the world around them.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Crystalline waters, a sapphire embrace
Whispers of palm trees, a tropical grace
Paradise calls me, but shadows still linger
Memories haunt me, like a phantom singer 

[Chorus]
In this Eden, I'm lost and found
Waves crash freedom, yet chains surround
Paradise binds me, in golden light
But darkness reminds me, of endless night 

[Verse 2]
Sun-kissed skin, yet my soul feels cold
Beauty surrounds me, but pain takes hold
Island of dreams, or a gilded cage?
My heart's in turmoil, on this hidden stage 

[Chorus]
In this Eden, I'm lost and found
Waves crash freedom, yet chains surround
Paradise binds me, in golden light
But darkness reminds me, of endless night 

[Verse 3]
Coconut air, with a hint of despair
Seashells and secrets, that I cannot share
Perfect horizon, blurs reality's line
Am I in heaven, or lost in my mind? 

[Chorus]
In this Eden, I'm lost and found
Waves crash freedom, yet chains surround
Paradise binds me, in golden light
But darkness reminds me, of endless night 

[Bridge]
Caught between worlds, of pleasure and pain
Tropical thunder, like tears of rain
Breaking the silence, of this perfect scene
Paradise whispers, but what does it mean? 

[Outro]
Eden's echoes, fade away
Leaving questions, of night and day
In paradise lost, or paradise found
My soul still searches, for solid ground

Nothing Matters Anymore

Songwriting has been a lifelong passion for me, dating back to elementary school when I first began crafting stories, poems, and eventually lyrics. As a former drummer in various bands, I always relied on others to bring my words to life musically. However, after a long hiatus from drumming, I decided to take the leap and learn to compose music to accompany my lyrics. Through classes and dedication, I've embarked on a new journey, breathing fresh life into old lyrics and penning new ones. You'll find a mix of older and newer works here, for the lyrics. 

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is being completely entranced by 'The Little Drummer Boy' as a very young child. There was something about the rhythm and the melody that just captivated me. I must have played it a thousand times, wearing the record out, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to be a drummer, and to create that magic for others. 

But I was too young then, and of course I couldn't afford a drum set just yet. So, I turned to writing as a way to express myself. As I mentioned above, I started with stories, then poems, and eventually, lyrics. I found that writing was not only a way to tap into my creativity, but also a way to process my emotions and experiences. 

As I grew older, my love for music only deepened. I realized that music has this incredible power to transport us to different times and places, to evoke emotions and memories that we thought were long forgotten. It's a universal language that can bring people together like nothing else can. 

For me, writing lyrics is a cathartic experience. It's a way for me to tap into my emotions, to process the world around me, and to create something that I hope will resonate with others. And when I hear my words come to life in a song, it's truly magical. It's a feeling that never gets old, and it's what keeps me coming back to music time and time again. 

I love many genres of music and artists of many genres. And if you listen to some of my songs, you will find that I like to make songs of different genres as well as mix different genres into each song. One of my all-time favorite bands is Evanescence, and I have made a lot of songs where I have tried my best to emulate that sound. 

Now, I have recently started experimenting with new sounds. I never heard of glitch beats before I took music classes, and now I'm fascinated with the sound, so I have been experimenting with glitch beats recently. 

I hope you enjoy some of my songs. And thanks so much to everyone who has been listening so far. I truly appreciate it. I welcome constructive feedback to help me grow as an artist, and I appreciate your support. ❤️
