Shirt Off My Back

The Dark Afterglow is an art project which was founded in 2011 by the austrian musician Alexander Herzog, born 1991. He writes, records and designs everything on his own as a one-man-factory. His songwriting is very spontaneous and instinctive. All tracks are written and recorded at his home with the most minimal equipment you could find to keep the truth of music at the highest point.

Lyrics in Dutch and  under in English  : 

" Mijn wereld "

Ik neem je mee naar mijn wereld
Die soms koud is en soms kil
Waarin ik afstand neem, waarin ik hard ben
En soms niet praten wil
Met woorden kan ik niet zeggen
Wat mijn hartje zeggen wil
Dit liedje moet je voelen
Van dit liedje......word je stil

Mijn familie op deze wereld
Ze zijn koud en ze zijn kil
Ze nemen afstand willen niet praten
Sluiten me buiten, blijven stil
Met woorden kan ik niet zeggen
Wat mijn hartje zeggen wil
Dit liedje moet je voelen
Van dit liedje.....word je stil

Ooohooo luister goed hoe ik kan huilen
Niet met tranen, maar met dit liedje
Want mijn wereld is mijn wereld
Voor mij familie geldt dit niet.

=========================================

"My world"

I'm taking you to my world
Sometimes cold and sometimes cold
In which I distance myself, in which I am hard
And sometimes don't want to talk
I cannot say with words
What my heart wants to say
You should feel this song
This song ...... makes you silent

My family in this world
They are cold and they are chilly
They don't want to talk
Close me out, keep quiet
I cannot say with words
What my heart wants to say
You should feel this song
This song ..... makes you silent

Ooohooo listen carefully how I can cry
Not with tears, but with this song
Because my world is my world
This does not apply to my family.

Mijn Wereld 💧  ( Mirjam Keijnemans .  prod pb )

All time stopped
Visions gone
Time ceases to exist
Your Inner world More Important
Than the outside world Surrounding you

All Time Stopped

Trouble

Cover of Phil Collins "In The Air Tonight".

I heard State Azure's amazing ambient cover of "In the Air Tonight" https://soundcloud.com/state-azure/phil-collins-in-the-air-tonight-state-azure-cover and as happens to me I couldn't resist adding a vocal. Pat was kind enough to allow me to publish this joint version.

IN THE AIR TONIGHT

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight? Oh Lord, oh Lord

Well, if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before, my friend, but I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did, I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off that grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
Well, I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord, oh Lord

Well, I remember, I remember, don't worry, how could I ever forget?
It's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no, you don't fool me
Well, the hurt doesn't show, but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you and me

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight? Oh Lord, oh Lord

PREUVES D’AMOUR

Envie d’amour, ton corps accourt
Petit animal d’impatience
Ton désir dit : je suis pour
Mais le toujours a plus d’exigences.

Refrain :
Garde tes paroles, elles sont belles
Mais s’envolent
Oublie un peu tous tes « je t’aime »
Donne-moi des preuves d’amour

Si tu ne penses qu’à ton désir
Regarde-toi dans le miroir.
Il est là pour te faire plaisir,
Tu verras Narcisse, même dans le noir

Et pour que tout soit clair
Voici ma recette
Sans prise de tête :

J’aime les romantiques qui ne sont pas en toc
Quand la main sur le cœur, ils ne font pas semblant
Et plus don que Juan, quand ils brisent leur roc
Quand l’amant animal se transforme en aimant.
(refrain)

Alors si tu n’as pas peur
Lève-toi, je n’attends que toi
Tu sais le prix de mon cœur
Si c’est trop dur, bah ! tant pis pour toi
Mais
(refrain)

PROOF OF LOVE

Craving love, your body comes running
Little animal of impatience
Your desire says: I am for
But always has more demands.

Chorus:
Keep your words, they’re beautiful
But fly away
Forget all your “I love you”
Give me proof of love

If you only think of your desire
Look in the mirror.
He’s here to make you happy,
You’ll see Narcissus, even in the dark

And to make it clear
Here is my recipe
Without a headache:

I like a romantic who’s not in the mood
When the hand on the heart, they don’t pretend
And more gifted than Juan, when they break their rock
When the animal lover turns into a magnet.
(chorus)

So if you’re not scared
Get up, I’m waiting for you
You know the price of my heart
If it’s too hard, well! Too bad for you
But
(chorus)

Together with Karin-Maria Brunner

Preuves d'amour

This is the second song going back in time.

The year 2017 was not a musically productive year for me.

It was difficult for me to compose something decent, from my point of view, of course.

The songs they were thinking of were beyond my ability and knowledge to make music and that was frustrating for me. Today I have some sketches from that time that I have not developed yet.

However, I did my first song where I combined piano and electronics in a way that I have unconsciously and slowly developed to this day.

This song is called "Hurted in silence", which was released in 2018, but performed in late 2017.

Although it is dynamic and has a certain rhythm, it really is sad and dramatic. I draw on memories and experiences of people I met who taught me how cruel some people can be to others for no reason, just for the sake of feeling superior, when in reality we all have abilities that make us unique and worth knowing and respecting. .

It is possible that he was thinking of helpless people. I have a close case that will affect me my whole life.

Hurted in silence.
