It’s tender, ethereal, and comforting — like a whispered embrace in the dark.

In the Spotlight

Neon Kisses

Forest of Stone is a heartfelt folk ballad woven with orchestral warmth and poetic imagery. Through gentle verses and a soaring chorus, it reflects on memory, loss, and hope — walking among monuments of the past while holding onto the dream that love and souls will one day reunite. Both tender and powerful, it’s a meditation on remembrance and the passage of time.

Forest of Stone

A soft piano opens, weaving delicate melodies that evoke vulnerability. Gradually, drums and soaring synths join, creating an uplifting anthem

I ve heard your dreams

In the empty room of days that have no name,
I feel so weary, and my heart is lost, perplexed.
The exits are all closing, so many voices fade,
And disappointment clothes me in winter's fabric.

There is no remedy to quell this chill inside,
No stack of bills can ever pay the soul's high price,
Just a handful of true friends who never leave my side,
And an outstretched hand that crowns me with its peace.

And I cling, my God, to Your light,
even if the world turns its back on me,
even if everything rusts and the night burns,
I still sing, I still hope,
for the shadow is not the master
of my final path.
Only You are there, my God,
with Your light watching over my sleepless nights.

The newscasters sell promises of empty smoke,
While faith is auctioned in mad markets of dust and gold,
And yet, I still imagine a tomorrow of my own,
Like a child who sows stars in the barren void.

Because I've learned that hope is not a luxury,
That despite the ruins, it grows, born from the fright,
And though my voice may tremble, and my heart may bleed,
I know that one day, all deceptions will turn true.

And I cling, my God, to Your light,
even if the world turns its back on me,
even if everything rusts and the night burns,
I still sing, I still hope,
for the shadow is not the master
of my final path.
Only You are there, my God,
with Your light watching over my sleepless nights.

Do not take my hope from me…
It's the only thing that shines as I walk among the shadows,
The only thing that burns
When everything else goes dark.
My Hope that Your light in me will never be extinguished,
And that Your gentle hand is the one that comes to save me,
Every single night, when the pain in my chest
Burns, aches, and nearly takes my life.

And I cling, my God, to Your light,
even if the world turns its back on me,
even if everything rusts and the night burns,
I still sing, I still hope,
for the shadow is not the master
of my final path.
Only You are there, my God,
with Your light watching over my sleepless nights.

And I cling, my God, to Your light,
even if the world turns its back on me,
even if everything rusts and the night burns,
I still sing, I still hope,
for the shadow is not the master
of my final path.
Only You are there, my God,
with Your light watching over my sleepless nights.


My God, I Hold On to Your Light When the World Turns Away

Sometimes I make a sidestep of my ceremonial sounds.
Beneath the sound of distant thunder lies the echo of loss, not only the passing of our parents, but the silent knowing that one day our own children will face the same storm.
This piece moves between grief and grace, between the lightning of memory and the calm that follows the rain.
It is a meditation on love that never leaves, on the circle that keeps turning, and on the thunder that reminds us we were once small, and still are, inside.

Still Time

With "Undo," I wanted to write about that universal feeling of regret right after you've said something careless to someone you love. The entire production is built around the idea of reversing time—multiple guitar riffs are played backwards, the main vocal hook is chopped and glitched like a broken memory, and old-fashioned tape rewinding reels kick in at various points. The verses are quiet and full of tension, but the chorus explodes into this huge, emotional drop because that feeling of desperation is massive. It's an apology and a fantasy, a song for anyone who's ever wished they could just hit a button and take it all back.

Lyrics: [Verse 1]
Silence in the car, feels so cold tonight
Drivin' through the city but I'm runnin' from the light
Of the words I said, hangin' in the air
I see 'em in the way you're starin' out of there
I'm tryna find a road that can take us back in time
To the moment right before I crossed the line
'Cause every mile we're drivin' is a mile we're far apart
And I'm lookin' for a button I can press to restart...
I just wish that I could hit undo
Erase the last five minutes, take 'em back from you
Oh, I'd rewind the tape, I would change the scene
And swallow all the words that were careless and mean
Can we just undo?
Pretend it wasn't true?
I know that I can't fix it, but I'm askin' you
Can we just undo?

[Verse 2]
I see your reflection in the window glass
A perfect thing I shattered, hopin' it would pass
Now I'm countin' all the pieces, hopin' I can save
This love that you so freely, so honestly gave
And I hate the man I was for a minute on that clock
The one who had the key and then went and broke the lock
'Cause every word is playin' on a loop inside my head
And I'd give anything to say something else instead...
I just wish that I could hit undo
Erase the last five minutes, take 'em back from you
Oh, I'd rewind the tape, I would change the scene
And swallow all the words that were careless and mean
Can we just undo?
Pretend it wasn't true?
I know that I can't fix it, but I'm askin' you
Can we just undo?
Is it too late to take it back?
Is there a way to get on track?
'Cause you're the only thing that's ever felt like home...
Don't wanna do this all alone.
I just wish that I could hit undo
Erase the last five minutes, take 'em back from you
Oh, I'd rewind the tape, I would change the scene
And swallow all the words that were careless and mean
Can we just undo?
Pretend it wasn't true?
I know that I can't fix it, but I'm askin' you
Can we just undo?

Undo

(Verse 1)
We built a rocket out of milk crates and dreams,
Painted stars on the fence where the grass meets the seams.
The world felt endless past that wooden line,
Our galaxy fit in a night that was mine.

(Pre-Chorus)
We didn’t need no satellites,
Just porch light planets in the night—
Every whisper, every laugh,
Felt like a comet burning fast.

(Chorus)
In our backyard universe,
We owned the stars, for what it’s worth.
Old lawn chairs became our thrones,
We were gods of the great unknown.
In our backyard universe,
Everything felt unrehearsed.
You were the sun, and I was cursed,
Orbiting you forever.

(Verse 2)
Your dad’s old speakers played Bowie too loud,
We danced in pajamas, invisible crowd.
Talked about leaving this town someday,
But part of me still hopes we’ll stay.

(Pre-Chorus)
Constellations in your eyes,
Mapped the roads I’d never find—
Every moment, every spark,
Was our whole world in the dark.

(Chorus)
In our backyard universe,
We owned the stars, for what it’s worth.
Old lawn chairs became our thrones,
We were gods of the great unknown.
In our backyard universe,
Everything felt unrehearsed.
You were the sun, and I was cursed,
Orbiting you forever.

(Bridge)
Now the grass grew tall, the lights are gone,
But I still hear our favorite song.
If I close my eyes, I see that sky—
We never really said goodbye.

(Final Chorus)
In our backyard universe,
Where time and truth both reversed.
You were the sun, and I was cursed,
Still orbiting you forever.
Yeah, our backyard universe—
I still see you there,
In every star that burns.

(Outro)
Our backyard universe…
Still spinning somewhere.

Backyard Universe

Verse 1]
Still running on fumes, but the speedometer’s lied
I’m pushing past the redline, nowhere left to hide
This engine’s a pulse, it’s the beat of the memory
Driving faster just to stop what you did to me
The city is screaming, but all I hear is the fade
A phantom broadcast from the promises we made
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands locked tight at ten and two, eyes glued to the pane
Searching for your signal through the concrete rain
Can’t stop, won’t quit, gotta peel back the night
Your memory’s a fix, blinding out the light
[Chorus]
The Ghost in the Static, yeah, you’re the feedback I crave
A beautiful prison that I'm addicted to save
The world is a blur, but your face is so clear
Push the pedal down just to keep you near
Ooh, I'm spinning out, caught in the rhythm of your lies
Chasing a signal that only fades as the sun begins to rise
[Verse 2]
I tried to tune out, hit the button for the radio silence
But your voice cuts through every storm, every night of violence
This high-speed trance is the only way I can cope
A desperate prayer whispered at the end of the rope
I know I'm chasing a dead line, a number I can't call
But I'll hit every wall just to prove I can fall
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands locked tight at ten and two, eyes glued to the pane
Searching for your signal through the concrete rain
Can’t stop, won’t quit, gotta peel back the night
Your memory’s a fix, blinding out the light
[Chorus]
The Ghost in the Static, yeah, you’re the feedback I crave
A beautiful prison that I'm addicted to save
The world is a blur, but your face is so clear
Push the pedal down just to keep you near
Ooh, I'm spinning out, caught in the rhythm of your lies
Chasing a signal that only fades as the sun begins to rise
[Bridge]
The dashboard lights flicker like a heart attack beat
My sin is the speed, my fear is the slow down, I repeat
You’re not here, you’re just a frequency in the air
But I need that sound, I need that magnetic despair.
[Chorus]
The Ghost in the Static, yeah, you’re the feedback I crave
A beautiful prison that I'm addicted to save
The world is a blur, but your face is so clear
Push the pedal down just to keep you near
Ooh, I'm spinning out, caught in the rhythm of your lies
Chasing a signal that only fades as the sun begins to rise
