I Don't Want To Be Alone

how do you seem so laid back
yet act like your on crack
you might ignore my love
but i swear you’re from above

your hot and fun and tall and cute 
(youve never had a girlfriend too?)
your smart and nice and really cool
(there must be something wrong with you)
you’re too good to be true
its not like you never knew
that you’ve got more then a few
screws loose
i can rescrew you
i can subdue you
just so i can pursue you
and i can fix him
maybe i can convince him
to go to a restauraunt
i swear i’m gonna kiss him
when he responds

why are you doing this. you got me a hotel? you're flying me across to another country?- thats called a vacation hahaha

you might ignore me now
but one day i’ll make you proud
i’m lost, with you i’m found
someday you’ll come around

your hot and fun and tall and cute 
youve never had a girlfriend too?)
your smart and nice and really cool
there must be something wrong with you)
you’re too good to be true
its not like you never knew
that you’ve got more then a few
screws loose
i can rescrew you
i can subdue you
just so i can pursue you
and i can fix him
maybe i can convince him
to go to a restauraunt
i swear i’m gonna kiss him
but he’s already gone
for another girl
farewell so long
this happens every time
and all i can do is cry
but i can fix him!!
i can fix him
i can fix him 
i can fix him
i can fix him
i can fix him 
i can fix him
I CAN FIX HIM
I CAN FIX HIM
I CAN FIX HIM
I CAN FIX HIM
I CAN FIX HIM
I CAN FIX HIM

oh i just made it worse

I Can Fix Him

"Sometimes beauty is having no plan”

This track is the opener from the album "About The Soul" that was featured mid July 2022 by BandCamp as a new and notable release.

They described the album as "utterly bewitching electropop with sublime vocal melodies that recall the glorious theatricality of ’80s new wave"

Lyrics:
I can't believe all these things I see,
flying by my eyes in some clever disguise,
feels like I'm losing touch, or I just know too much,
either way I'll be out for lunch.

The older I get, the more I forget
The lessons I've learned, just made me dumber
These streets I walk through, I'll forget too,
with everything else I thought I knew.

I can't feel bliss, in ignorance's kiss,
there must be somethin more to this,
losing brain cells, from what I cannot tell,
tryna get to heaven, from this cruel hell.

The older I get, the more I forget,
The lessons I learned, just made me dumber,
These streets I walk through, yeah I'll forget too,
with everything else I thought I knew.

(With everything else I thought I knew.)

LYRICS ONLY STRANGER IN MY LIFE by DOUG MICHAEL ROOSSIEN 
FEEL LIKE A STRANGER IN MY LIFE    
NOT A SOUL I’D RECOGNIZE 
THIS STRANGER I DON’T KNOW IS ALL ALONE 
I LOOK IN THAT MIRROR, WE USED TO SHARE 
JUST SEE THE GHOST…OF YOU STANDING THERE 
And …THIS BED, WHERE WE USED TO LIE, …HAS GROWN SO COLD 

Till …THIS STRANGER… CAME INTO MY LIFE 
NOW HE’S THE ONLY ONE I RECOGNIZE 
I DON’T EVEN KNOW… DON’T EVEN KNOW… MY OWN SOUL 

DROVE BY OUR DINER THAT WE USED TO KNOW  
ORDERED A PIZZA FOR JUST ONE TO GO
SAT ON THAT PARK BENCH SWALLOWED MY PRIDE TILL I WAS FULL 
READ YOUR LETTER...EVERY WORD 
WHISPERED INSIDE IT’S …JUST WHAT I DESERVED 
MY TEARS, SOAKED ON EVERY WORD, YOU WROTE 

To …THIS STRANGER… Who Came into my life. 
And He’s the only … ONE I recognize. 
DON’T EVEN KNOW, DON’T EVEN KNOW,.MY OWN SOUL 
 FEEL LIKE A STRANGER….(a stranger in my life) 
FEEL LIKE A STRANGER….(a stranger in my life) 

REREAD YOUR LETTER...AGAIN EVERY WORD 
WHISPERED INSIDE … IT’S JUST WHAT I DESERVED 
AS MY TEARS, SOAKED ON EVERY WORD,  EVERY WORD YOU WROTE 
To this stranger …this stranger …in my life 
Feel like a Stranger ,… a stranger …in my life. 

I believe we are closing on an album of our songs together: (six so far) …Stranger in my life, Only Just a Picture, Tears you just can’t cry, Never Sailed Goodbye, Sad River, and Goin’ to Hell,… Thank you Johnny!!

STRANGER IN MY LIFE by Doug Roossien (production NoKillieFish)

A song about doubt, fears and holding on. 

It has been mastered by Ryan at RCD Audio. 

Lyrics:

This washed out, mid week Morning

This morning you said you loved me
Where the hell did that come from?
I’ve been waiting months for some affection 
Now this just trips off your tongue!
On this washed out, midweek morning, 
There’s hope again! 

My routine has been disrupted 
As I’m thinking about your words
For weeks I thought that it was over
But now it seems a future’s there for us  
on this washed out, midweek morning, 
Confusion grows

And doubts intrude where trusting thoughts reside
I know I can sense it
I’m sure there’s a reason
For you to have this change of mind  
On this washed out, midweek morning 
I Feel so unsure 

And I could dig a little deeper
Yeah I could really shake that tree 
But i don’t want confirmation 
Now you’ve said you love me!
On this washed out, midweek morning 
Let’s move on! 

And doubts intrude where trusting thoughts reside 
I know I can sense it
I’m sure there’s a reason 
For you to have this change of mind
On this washed out, midweek morning, 
I’ll ignore to love
