Outbound
By The Graaf 

A song I recorded 4 years ago, that i now sneakily released here on Soundcloud. 

Lyrics:
Occupy the one deemed distant for us to see
An enemy of time 
Bound since the laughing jackass sang from the eucalyptus tree 
At dawn jack cut everything down
Mutated meat beings are roaming now
Pushing fragile lines of conventions into a flight outbound

I will fly high here 
I will fly to anywhere
Just to find a faith
That was not planted here 
That was not planted anywhere
Just to find my, just to find my, just to find my faith 

Philosuffocate to seek 
As we gaze upon what it left of thee 
One´s friendship occupied
Once lost but now found hunted 
To the steep edged corner in our common cage  
That greed and hatred build 
With abstractions that lacks self-control, LOL
How lowly birds are frying now
Burning away from balanced life circles
Into a Noah’s ark like outbound
 
I will fly high here 
I will fly to anywhere
Just to find a faith
That was not planted here 
That was not planted anywhere
Just to find my, just to find my, just to find my faith 

All the lessons learned from our descent 
Poached, thrown out and leaved stained 
I only found the days that sends the one outbound
I will never sell all the flowers the stains impaled
All the dreams that it instilled 
Only found the days that sends the one outbound

I will fly high here 
I will fly to anywhere
Just to find a faith
That was not planted here 
That was not planted anywhere
Just to find my, just to find my, just to find my faith 

All the lessons learned from our descent 
Poached, thrown out and leaved stained 
I only found the days that sends the one outbound
I will never sell all the flowers the stains impaled
All the dreams that it instilled 
But I only found the days that sends the one outbound

I will never hail all the verses that we  
Inhale again, inhale again
About that we all stand alone 
No, I say no! 
Oh, fight for love
Fight for the one
To come back to where we belong

Outbound

I am a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Copenhagen, Denmark. My mission is to create personal and honest music, that invites the listener to dive into; dreams, nostalgias, passions, acceptance, vibrations, hope, presence, and, last but not least; life!

Besides having this Solo project called The GRAAF, I am also the Drummer of the Copenhagen based rock band called; Raw Umbra (https://www.facebook.com/rawumbra ) and I was part of the duo project called Seven Millimeters  (https://soundcloud.com/user-440242066 ).

My passion is to create music and express my thoughts, experiences, dreams, emotions, past, present, and future within these pieces of art. The creations here on Soundcloud are recorded in my amateur home studio in Copenhagen or in my hay-loft studio on the Island of Bornholm, where I grew up on the rugged countryside. To get as close to a personal expression in the creations as possible, I decided to play all instruments, record, and mix everything all by myself.
 
Alternative rock and metal, Grunge, Post-punk Shoegaze and Dream-pop are the music-genres that mainly “hits me” and inspires me in my own music making. But years of playing classical music on my Accordion and the fact that I have a very broad music taste, influences the music and expressions as well. 

Best regards,
Alexander, a.k.a. The Graaf
