[Intro]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Oooh

I am the ghost
The voice inside of your head when you're all alone (Umm)
When you wake up between the sheets
There's nothing you should fear
I'm just someone to love (Ooh) (oooh)

Ooh
Ooh
Oooh

You can think I'm strange
And you can think I'm odd
But don't fear the ghost
I'm just someone to love

[Post-Chorus]
Someone to love
Someone to love

[Bridge]
And you can think I'm strange
(I'm just someone to love)
And you can think I'm strange
You can think I'm odd
But don't fear the ghost
I'm just someone to love

[Chorus X4]
You can think I'm strange
And you can think I'm odd
But don't fear the ghost
I'm just someone to love (Oooh)

In the shadows I reside
A gentle presence by your side
When doubts creep in and fears arise
I'll be your strength, your lullaby
I'm just someone to love (Ooh)

Ooh
Ooooh

[Chorus]
You can think I'm strange
And you can think I'm odd
But don't fear the ghost
I'm just someone to love

Through the veil, I reach for you
A spectral touch, a love so true
In whispers soft and breezes light
I'll guard your dreams throughout the night
I'm just someone to love (Ooh)

[Chorus]
You can think I'm strange
And you can think I'm odd
But don't fear the ghost

(Ooh) Don't push away
(Ooh) The ghost you see
Is love set free
I'm just someone to love

Someone to Love

Welcome to a very personal and intimate song, one that I'm sharing with you from a deeply vulnerable place. This song is a reflection of my own childhood memories, growing up in a family that was far from perfect.

Through the lyrics, I'm sharing with you my own experiences of finding solace in the simple joys of family camping trips, while also navigating the pain and complexity of a dysfunctional family dynamic.

This song is my own story, my own truth, and I'm honored to share it with you. It's a song about resilience, about finding hope in the darkest of places, and about the power of memories to shape us into who we are today.


LYRICS:

[Verse 1:]
Father's temper flared like a wildfire's spark
Mother's words cut deep, a wound that left its mark
We'd pretend it was okay, but the pain would remain
Our house, a battleground, where love was hard to obtain

[Chorus:]
But then we'd pack up the car, and head for the open road
Our yearly camping trip, a chance to escape, to let go
We'd find some peace in the woods, a sense of freedom and release
Our family's dysfunction, temporarily out of reach

[Verse 2:]
S'mores and campfires, laughter and fun
For a week, we'd forget, the battles we'd begun
But the memories lingered, like the smell of smoke and pine
A bittersweet reminder, of the love we left behind

[Chorus:]
But then we'd pack up the car, and head for the open road
Our yearly camping trip, a chance to escape, to let go
We'd find some peace in the woods, a sense of freedom and release
Our family's dysfunction, temporarily out of reach

[Bridge:]
Looking back, I see the scars, but also the love we shared
A complicated legacy, of joy and pain, intertwined
Our family's story, a messy tapestry, woven with threads of strife
But in the woods, we found a fleeting sense of life

[Chorus:]
For then we'd pack up the car, and head for the open road
Our yearly camping trip, a chance to escape, to let go
We'd find some peace in the woods, a sense of freedom and release
Our family's dysfunction, temporarily out of reach

Temporary Escape

This song is a mesmerizing and introspective journey that explores the liberation of embracing one's true self. It's a hauntingly beautiful tale of breaking free from the constraints of fear and finding solace in the shadows.

It's an ode to the transformative power of self-discovery and the freedom that comes with embracing the unknown.


LYRICS: 

[Verse 1]
Whispers in twilight echo loud
Moonlight piercing through the shroud
Dancing shadows on the ground
Silence broken by the sound 

[Verse 2]
Fireflies light up the night
Eyes that glimmer burning bright
In the darkness searching sight
Lost and found in pure delight 

[Chorus]
In the shadows we dance
Breaking free from this trance
Heartbeats sync in our veins
No more fear no more chains 

[Bridge]
Echoes of past lives collide
In this moment worlds untied
Far from dawn but not far wide
In this dream we will confide 

[Verse 3]
Through the thorns and broken glass
Finding peace that will outlast
In this dream our shadows cast
Moments slipping from the past 

[Chorus]
In the shadows we dance
Breaking free from this trance
Heartbeats sync in our veins
No more fear no more chains

[Verse 3]
Through the thorns and broken glass
Finding peace that will outlast
In this dream our shadows cast
Moments slipping from the past 

[Chorus]
In the shadows we dance
Breaking free from this trance
Heartbeats sync in our veins
No more fear no more chains

Whispers in Twilight

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. 😢

VickStiX's Artist Manifesto
*******************

I am the static between truth and noise.
A pulse that cracks the silence open.
When the world forgets its conscience,
I remind it — one beat, one lyric, one spark.

I don’t shout to divide; I sing to awaken.
I don’t chase fame; I chase clarity.
My art is not a weapon — it’s a flare in the dark.
A signal to every soul that still believes in better.

Let the trolls rage, let the cowards hide.
They can’t drown out a voice that’s tuned to truth.
I will paint their lies in sound and light
until justice has a melody again.

Because protest is not anger — it’s hope with a megaphone.
And I was born to be loud.

🎶 VickStiX — Truth. Rhythm. Revolution.
