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

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
Here
I watch the seasons change too early
We wait
Impatient for no reason
And wait for you

[Verse 2]
Well
It's
Not like you're in a rush for nothing
And it's
No more full of life than living
I'm here for you

[Chorus]
So cannot you see?
I'm waiting for you
While you're there without me
I'm here with the cats

[Verse 3]
And now
Come and lead me up the garden path
And
With your rocks and your flowerwort
I'm waiting here with them

[Verse 4]
When it's
Too late to say goodbye
I know you're
Far away tonight
You're there without me

[Chorus]
So cannot you see?
I'm waiting for you
While you're there without me
I'm here with the cats
Can you not see?
I'm waiting for you
'Cause you're there without me
I'm here with the cats
I'm here with the cats

[Verse 3]
And now
Come and lead me up the garden path
And
With your rocks and your flowerwort
I'm waiting here with them
Yeah

[Verse 4]
When it's
Too late to say goodbye
I know you're
Far away tonight
You're there without me

[Outro]
I'm here with the cats
I'm here with the cats

I'm here with the cats

[Verse 1]
In my quiet little world, I find my peaceful place
Surrounded by furry friends, who bring a smile to my face
Their purrs and snuggles, they chase my blues away
And in their loving eyes, I see a brighter day 

[Chorus]
My cats, they are my everything
Furry angels, who bring me joy that clings
In their company, I find my happy place
Where loneliness and sadness, can't erase

But my feline friends, they know just what to say
They curl up tight, and purr away my fears

Furry angels, who bring me joy that clings
In their company, I find my happy place
Where loneliness and sadness, can't erase

I don't need the world outside, to make me whole
My cats, they are my family, my heart and soul
I'll cherish every moment, we share and play
And in their love, I'll find my way

My cats, they are my everything
Furry angels, who bring me joy that clings
In their company, I find my happy place
Where loneliness and sadness, can't erase

So I'll hold them close, and never let them go
My furry angels, who bring me love and show
That even in the darkest night, there's still a shining light
And that's the love of my cats, that guides me through the night.

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
Shadows stretch where the light won’t tread
A whisper calls from the void ahead
I was lost in a maze of my own mind
Then your voice became the thread to find

[Verse 2]
Your eyes are storms
I’m caught in the tide
Drowning deep but I don’t want to hide
Every scar I’ve worn
You see them clear
And suddenly the silence isn’t what I fear

[Chorus]
I’m falling into you
Like the night into the sky
No ground beneath me
No need to ask why
The gravity of your soul pulls me whole
I’m falling into you
You’re the piece that makes me full

[Bridge]
The walls I built crumble at your touch
Stone by stone
I never knew this much
You break the chains I thought would bind
And free the heart I’d left behind

[Verse 3]
Echoes fade where your laughter sings
A melody that pulls on fragile strings
Every note is stitched into my veins
I’m alive in the beauty of your pain

[Chorus X2]
I’m falling into you
Like the night into the sky
No ground beneath me
No need to ask why
The gravity of your soul pulls me whole
I’m falling into you
You’re the piece that makes me full

Kevin Wall is a Worcester-based professional with experience in education, civic programming, youth development, and nonprofit community outreach.

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.
