Publicity for "I Don't Live There Anymore" by Dean Mueller

Dean Mueller's new single, "I Don't Live There Anymore," is a heartfelt reflection on change, loss, and moving forward. Inspired by his move to Bend, Oregon, amid the pandemic and personal upheaval, the song encapsulates the emotional journey of leaving behind a cherished home and the memories it held.

Dean shares, "My move to Bend was driven by significant life changes—a long-term relationship breakup, the passing of my father, and an overwhelming need for a fresh start. The pandemic made my existing situation unbearable, constantly reminding me of the past."

Excerpt from Dean:
"I sold my mid-century modern house in Portland, a place I poured my heart, soul, and money into. When I visited a year later, it was gutted to the studs. It was so upsetting to see. But then I thought, 'They destroyed my work, but I don't live there anymore.' That realization became the core of this song."

"I Don't Live There Anymore" is a poignant reminder of the resilience required to move forward. It's about accepting the past, embracing change, and finding hope in new beginnings.

Quotes from Dean:

"It was really a pivotal moment for me to not be mad, sad, or angry and think, 'They destroyed my work and the spirit of the house, but hey—I don't live there anymore.'"

"Whenever emotions like that come around, I figure it's a good time to write a song."
Lyrics Highlight:

"There was a place that I lived for awhile Two cars in the driveway, two doggies in the yard Livin' a dream in a Rockwell kinda way That melted in the rain

I don't live there anymore I’m standing all alone I feel sadness that's for sure There ain't no magic cure But I don't live there anymore"

"I Don't Live There Anymore" captures the bittersweet nature of letting go and the hope that comes with new dreams. Listen to Dean Mueller's new single and experience the journey of moving on and finding a brighter path.

Lyrics:-

Intro

Someone please fill the void 
Which is in my heart
And wash away the scars
From the falling star
And if you can't
Then let me go back to my canvas
Cause I guess
It's time to restart
It's time to restart
It's time to restart
It's time to restart

Verse 1

Back to the basic
Jab tumhe aaye na samajh
Ki kya ho raha hai galat
Back to the basic
Jab bawajood dene ke efforts
Aaye na result
Back to the basic
Jab tum ek loop me gaye ho fas 
Aur bahar ka raasta aaye na nazar
Back to the basic

Easier said than done 
Jab kissi cheez me lag jaaye man
Aur usse karke dafan
Dusre ke sahaare vyateet karna pade jeevan
I know it's hard  to admit
Ki jiske khwaab hai aap ne bunne
Uske liye ho hi na aap banne 
Par kuch cheezen karni padti hai rakhke dil pe pathar
Nahi toh woh dil pathar ka bana deti hain
Jinhe samjhte the aap umeed ki door
Wohi faansi ke phande chadha deti hain
Ye zindagi ka khel bhi bada nirala hai
Jo waqt deta hai har cheez ka jawaab
Usse ameeron ne apni kalai pe baandha hai
Agar hai koi upar jo likhta hai sabka hisaab
Toh kabhi dekhna daftar me, kitni file'n pe laga jala hai
Mein kal hi gaya tha dilaane apni kaabiliyat ko insaaf
Pata chala ye vakaalat, katghara, adaalat sab chalawa hai
Isse toh behtar kholo ek nayi kitaab
Aur bolo mere saath

Verse 2 

Log kehte hai shuruaat karna hota hai aasaan
Anjaam dena hai badi baat
Par ye pucho usse jise ek naye sire se dekhne the saare khwaab
Aur hisse me aa gaya aasmaan
Mein jaanta hoon mushkil hai sab peeche chodhkar aana
Jis par karke naaz sir pe phera tha haath
Uska apne haathon se gala dabana 
Par ye zaruri hai ki tumhe ho ehsaas
Ki ye zindagi chahe de ya na de tumhe dusra chance
Par tumhe har haar ke baad karni padti hai ek nayi shuruaat
Bhai hoti toh sabko hai manzil ki firaaq
Lekin uske saath safar ki kadar bhi toh zaruri hai
Uske bina toh ye zindagi hi adhuri hai
Aur ek ke na hone se dusre ke maaine thodi na khatam ho jaate hai
Is duniya me kuch zaaya nahi hota
Agar kahi paani bhi giraate hai toh apni maa ki pyaas toh bhujaate hai
Toh kis baat pe ho maayoos
Aao ek naya ghar banate hai
Usme umeed ke diye jalate hai
Usse khushiyon se sajate hai
Aao phir ek baar shunya se ittihaas banate hai

It fell apart
For good reason
It fell apart
It was my season

For the life to tumble
For the life to fall
For the life, I dreamt
For the life I called

Me
But, it wasn't me
It was to rot for
Someone I was not

I lived a life
For someone, I thought
Cared for my dreams
Cared for my loss

I started to build it back up
When someone who cared
When someone loved
When someone was there

They came into my life
It was great
They came into my life
I'm back to the same

Old self
Old soul
Old dreams
Old gold

It's time, it's time
To take back what is mine
It's time, it's time

Relax
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold

Starting New

🔥 Sandman – Song Insight & Lyrics 🔥

🔻 Sandman – Song Insight
Some nightmares don’t come in the dark. They come in the quiet moments, in the weight of choices we never got to make.

"Sandman" is a song about being trapped in a life set in motion without your consent. It’s about feeling like a passenger in a story written by someone else, forced to rebuild from the wreckage of a fate you never asked for. It explores the pain of being left behind, the questions that linger long after someone walks away, and the silent battle of finding yourself in the ruins they left behind.

With haunting verses, a chorus that echoes resignation, and a bridge that questions trust itself, Sandman embodies the struggle of moving forward while feeling chained to the past.

This is for the ones forced to pick up the pieces.
For the ones left standing at a crossroads with no map, no answers—
And for the ones who refuse to let the past define them.

This is "Sandman."

🔻 Sandman – Lyrics

Opening
"I can’t help but eel like it was all a dream.
Standing at the crossroads, waiting to be seen.
Trapped in a space where the past won’t shift,
A version of my life I’m too scared to admit."

Verse 1
"But the weight on my chest keeps dragging me low,
Pulling me under where the light won’t show."

Chorus
"This is my existence, the world set for me.
I never asked for this, but there’s no way to leave.
A decision I couldn’t make, and yet,
I'm stuck to rebuild again, this life that you left me with."

Verse 2
"The path was carved without my say,
Twisting my soul in a storm of grey.
I gave you my heart, but you let it divide,
Now I’m left to gather this silence inside."

Pre-Chorus
"But the fractures within refuse to mend,
The trace of the past that will never end."

Chorus
"This is my existence, the world set for me.
I never asked for this, but there’s no way to leave.
A decision I couldn’t make, and yet,
I'm stuck to rebuild again, this life that you left me with."

Bridge
"Why would I ever let someone close?
Why take the risk when it all turns to ghosts?"

Final Chorus
"This is my existence, the world set for me.
I never asked for this, but there’s no way to leave.
A decision I couldn’t make, and yet,
I'm stuck to rebuild again, this life that you left me with."

Outro
"I can’t help but feel like this is all that’s left,
A constant cycle with no way out.
A passenger in a story lost at sea,
Still holding the weight of your name in me."

🔻 A Fate Not Chosen
Some choices are made in an instant. Others are made for us, set in motion long before we ever had a say.

"Sandman" is for those who never got to decide.
For those left rebuilding from the wreckage of someone else’s decisions.
For those forced to find their own way when the road was carved without their consent.

This song is a fight against fate—a battle to reclaim what was stolen.

episode 1: starting over

Stranger to Myself is the first single from Aynsley Saxe's sophomore album A Thousand Stars set for release in Fall 2025.  Wading into acoustic and folk territory, this song explores the themes of isolation and starting over amidst confusion.  

Stranger to Myself

[Verse]
I fell down hard but I'm on my feet
A broken road under me complete
The cracks they whisper lessons untold
In the dirt I find my heart of gold

[Chorus]
I'm starting over with the sun on my face
Chasing the shadows I’m ready to embrace
Every stumble every scar is my friend
This is the moment I rise again

[Verse 2]
The mirror laughs but I don't look away
A thousand pieces but I'm here to stay
Built from the rubble of who I once was
Standing stronger now just because

[Chorus]
I'm starting over with the sun on my face
Chasing the shadows I’m ready to embrace
Every stumble every scar is my friend
This is the moment I rise again

[Bridge]
The world keeps spinning it doesn’t wait
But I’m not late I’m shaping my fate
The winds are wild but I’ll sail this sea
Failure’s just another way to be free

[Chorus]
I'm starting over with the sun on my face
Chasing the shadows I’m ready to embrace
Every stumble every scar is my friend
This is the moment I rise again

Episode 8: Meet Shelton Wilder I The Wilder Life: Sobriety, Success & Starting Over

“The Interlude” is a stripped-down ballad that moves like a memory — tender, haunting, and quietly defiant. Built on sparse piano, layered vocal textures, and ambient echoes, it captures the emotional weight of transition: the space after betrayal, before becoming.

Lyrically, the song unfolds like a journal left open. It explores fractured friendships, broken trust, and the quiet rebuild that follows a public fall. The hook doesn’t shout — it hums. With falsetto breaks, whispered refrains, and slow-burning verses, the track leans into vulnerability without needing to resolve it.

This isn’t a revenge song — it’s what happens after. “The Interlude” holds space for grief, growth, and the soft power of moving on without needing permission.

The Interlude

Jamdemic band is based in the Southern NH area and mixes up Classic “Deep Cut” tunes from Classic Rock, Blues, Funk, Country Rock & Jamband genres. We also create tasty jammy originals while continuing to perform amazing cover songs from AC/DC, Bob Seger, David Bowie, Joe Walsh, Grateful Dead, Tom Petty, Blues Brothers, Marshall Tucker Band, Pink Floyd, the Band The Who, and many many more!

Xak Stahl: Alchemist of Sound, Architect of Emotion

Xak Stahl is a genre-blurring music artist, sonic storyteller, and relentless experimenter. Every track he creates is a new world—a kaleidoscope of indie folk, alt-pop, electronica, and global flavors—infused with raw emotion and boundless curiosity. Xak’s music isn’t just heard; it’s felt.

From Shadow to Spotlight

For Xak, music is metamorphosis. His journey began in the shadows, transmuting heartbreak and struggle into songs that glow with hope. Early anthems like “Neon Dreams” and “Rising Through the Darkness” invite listeners to find their own light. His newest project, Major Arcana, channels the mysteries of the Tarot—each song an archetype, each lyric a step along the path from the Fool’s first leap to the wisdom of The World.

More Than Music: A Multisensory Universe

But Xak isn’t confined to sound. As a visual artist and writer, he crafts immersive stories that spill across genres and languages—sometimes haunting, sometimes playful, always honest. Whether he’s conjuring lush soundscapes, weaving bilingual lyrics, or creating striking visuals, Xak’s art dares you to feel deeper and dream wilder.

An Invitation to Transformation

Join Xak Stahl on a sonic odyssey that blurs borders—between genres, between artforms, between you and the music. Each release is an invitation to explore, to heal, to become. For Xak, every song is a spell, every album a universe. The only question is: are you ready to step inside?

"If it didn’t matter, it wouldn’t hurt. Pain is the gift of knowing you’re alive."

4Me2BeFree is more than music—it’s my story, my scars, and my survival. Every song is a piece of me, a raw melody of love, heartbreak, and resilience. I blend AI-generated vocals and instruments with real emotions, turning my experiences—especially from an LGBTQ+ perspective—into something that speaks to anyone who's ever felt lost, broken, or just searching for something real.

Breakup songs? Yeah, they hit different. Music carries us through the worst of it, and every generation finds their own anthems of love, loss, and getting back up. Heartache doesn’t care about age, gender, or where you come from—music connects us all.

I make music because I’ve been there. The pain, the anger, the hope—it's all in these songs. If something here hits home for you, let it. If you feel something, let me know. That’s the connection that keeps this alive.
