STREAM

This song is a haunting and introspective exploration of the human experience, delving into the complexities of desire, fear, and the search for truth. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of people chasing fleeting highs and struggling to confront the darkness within, ultimately becoming lost in the moment and drifting away from the truth. With its themes of self-discovery and the quest for redemption, this song invites listeners to reflect on their own journeys and the universal human struggle to find our way through the darkness.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1:]
Everybody's chasing the highs and the lows
Some of them want to let go, some of them want to know
The secrets of the night, the whispers in the dark
Everybody's searching for a spark

[Chorus:]
Lost in the moment, we're drifting away
Into the silence, where the truth can't stay
We're chasing the shadows, we're running from the light
Lost in the moment, we're losing the fight

[Verse 2:]
Some of them want to be free, some of them want to be tied
Some of them want to escape, some of them want to hide
The ghosts of our past, the fears that we can't face
Everybody's hiding from the truth, in a secret place

[Chorus:]
Lost in the moment, we're drifting away
Into the silence, where the truth can't stay
We're chasing the shadows, we're running from the light
Lost in the moment, we're losing the fight

[Bridge:]
Maybe we'll find our way, through the darkness and the pain
Maybe we'll learn to love, and let go of the shame
Maybe we'll find the truth, and let it set us free
Maybe we'll find our way, to a brand new destiny

[Chorus:]
Lost in the moment, we're drifting away
Into the silence, where the truth can't stay
We're chasing the shadows, we're running from the light
Lost in the moment, we're losing the fight

Lost in the Moment

This song is a haunting and introspective ballad that delves into the themes of emotional numbness, pain, and despair. The lyrics convey a sense of being frozen in a state of sorrow, with a "cold soul" that's lost its warmth and vitality. 

Throughout the song, we grapple with the darkness within, struggling to find solace or refuge from the pain. The imagery is stark and evocative, with references to icy landscapes, shattered dreams, and endless wounds. 

The song's atmospheric and introspective soundscapes provide a fitting backdrop for the emotional intensity of the lyrics. The overall mood is one of melancholic contemplation, inviting listeners to immerse themselves in the song's haunting beauty.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Ice in my veins shadows in my glare
Heart like a tundra frozen but aware
Mirror shows a ghost haunted by despair
Walking through the dark, I can't find a prayer 

[Chorus]
Cold soul no warmth inside
Through the silence we collide
Breathing frost where fire died
Cold soul we won't abide 

[Verse 2]
Whispers on the wind secrets in the rain
Memories in chains driving me insane
Eyes like hollow voids feeling only pain
Nightfall in my mind lost without refrain 

[Chorus]
Cold soul no warmth inside
Through the silence we collide
Breathing frost where fire died
Cold soul we won't abide 

[Verse 2]
Whispers on the wind secrets in the rain
Memories in chains driving me insane
Eyes like hollow voids feeling only pain
Nightfall in my mind lost without refrain 

[Chorus]
Cold soul no warmth inside
Through the silence we collide
Breathing frost where fire died
Cold soul we won't abide 

[Bridge]
Echoes call my name voices from the deep
Crimson tears I weep, in a sleepless sleep
Frozen in the time endless wounds that seep
Severed from the light, forever mine to keep 

[Verse 3]
Shattered dreams like glass cutting through the night
Lost my way too long, blinded by the fright
Lifeless in the glow, no solace in sight
Chasing shadows now fading from the light 

[Chorus]
Cold soul no warmth inside
Through the silence we collide
Breathing frost where fire died
Cold soul we won't abide 

[Outro]
In the darkness, I'll remain
A cold soul, forever in pain
The silence is my only friend
Where the shadows never end

Cold Soul

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. Especially for some of 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. ❤️

BTW if you follow me, I will ALWAYS follow back. If I like your music, I will follow you, but if you don't follow me back within a week or so I will probably unfollow. The same goes for when I see someone listening to my music, I WILL follow, however, if they don't follow me back within a week or so, I'll unfollow, because I'm at my limit of follows and I want to follow back everyone who follows me. Did not know that SoundCloud limits us to following only 2000. 😢
