~~LYRICS~~
(Music and lyrics by Zoe Konez)

All I want 
Is to live
In the way 
That I want
And for that
I will fight
For us both
‘Cos I want
To choose love
I choose love
Choose love
Choose love 

I can't change 
Who I am
Not for you
Or your God
I can give 
You my love
I can live
Like I should
I choose love
I choose love 
Choose love
Choose love

Can we find a way to be together in the same room again?
I'm still the same me (underneath)
You're still the same you (underneath)
Can we fight together for somewhere in the middle we can meet?
I'm still the same me (underneath)
You're still the same you (underneath)

I don't feel 
I'm extreme
But I fear
Your beliefs 
You just need
To meet me
And my friends
‘Cos we want
To choose love
I choose love
Choose love
Choose love 

I was just
Questioning
What it means 
To be me
And I think 
You should live
And let be 
All we need is this 
I choose love
I choose love 
Choose love
Choose love

Can we find a way to be together in the same room again?
I'm still the same me (underneath)
You're still the same you (underneath)
Can we fight together for somewhere in the middle we can meet?
I'm still the same me (underneath)
You're still the same you (underneath)

I choose love 
Choose love

Living somewhere between The NeverEnding Story and The Chronicles of Narnia, “Find Me” tells the story of a youthful promise, a secret hiding place, and the years in between.

FIND ME
©2025 Brian Hazard (ASCAP) & Rainer Aschemeier (GEMA)

You know me
I’ll chase a shooting star
Even when it disappears

A childhood pact
A test of loyalty
We’ve endured for all these years

Beyond the wasteland dune
In the lair of the dragon rune
Under the mighty sea
Will you find me?

In the eye of the hurricane
In the notes of the last refrain
Inside the lion‘s den
Will you find me?

A secret place
We never said out loud
Where we vowed to meet again

I hold on tight with all my might
Somehow I still believe in magic
And reckless schemes

Far from the land where we began
Somehow I still believe in magic
And whispered dreams

walk in – you can dance a bit
and then you'll say, alright 
i don’t belong
and i'll say, you are loved you know
but dear i know you
you're always on edge

love is gone, but in your head
baby i'm with you now
and you are the one
was it real, was it wrong
baby i need you now
cause you are the one

i can’t, i can't stay with you
i'm just a memory
and you're not awake
love dear, you can't keep me here
when you're on something new
something so real

With You Now

This track is a playful take on the often elusive nature of creativity.  The track title is a riff on the opening line of The Odyssey.

LYRICS:

Every time you stare
Through the window of a blank page
You'll be looking for me

See me in the caffeine
Hear me with the cocaine
Foaming in your manic thoughts at 3am
Is where I am
You conjecture

No
Oh no no no

And we'll be holding hands when you're asleep
But when you rise I'm so long gone

I find it easy to keep
The things you want from me out of reach
And when you contemplate me
You find a country with no amnesty

And you
You're cut in two by the window
You
You're anchored to a roulette wheel
That's been fixed from the start
Place your bets and leave your money

I find it easy to keep
The things you want from me out of reach

I'm gonna get a prescription
(repeat and fade)

remember
all the good times lately
how could you forget?
do your hair
for about five hours
no it does not really look that different

yes I drove way out
oh how could you forget?
screaming at the traffic
I'm feeling lovesick
at the baja fresh
what the hell did I expect?
how could you forget?

now you act
like I'm acting funny
I can't help myself
'cause my love
is dangerous
no I cannot simply go and turn it off

yes I drove way out
oh how could you forget?
screaming at the traffic
I'm feeling lovesick
at the baja fresh
what the hell did I expect?
how could you forget?

catch your eyes
flashing in the mirror
like two midnight pools
can't believe 
I was a believer
no I will not count on you anymore

yes I drove way out
oh how could you forget?
screaming at the traffic
I'm feeling lovesick
at the baja fresh
what the fuck did I expect?
how could you forget?

Friends

The first single from Faunaphor's upcoming debut record "And There I Was"

in a library, in the summer (when I read I fall asleep)

Produced by Mike Coleman
Art by Jorge Solorzano & Jordan Stone

Found a map of a place that had been erased
By some mortar shells 100 years ago
And the town had left, and the grass had grown
And the great cathedral was scattered stone

So I made that stop on a country road
In a snowy field, where my headlights shone
Upon a great big plaque
With some dates and names
And a Latin quote about fate and grace

But it was too late - a little too late

So I sat alone on my panting hood
And I breathed and breathed until I felt good
About a world that turns in leaps and bounds
And builds great cities and flattens towns

That could lead me here back to this quiet place
A century later to think, and pace
And then return home back to my smiling world
No wiser, but a little more in awe

Dates & Names

Keys by Chris Beachy

You asked the time
We were waiting in line
I tried to speak, but I said nothing
Late in the day, when the clouds moved away
Thought of your face and your sleeping arrangements

How long has the whole world known
That you and me were not to be?
I'm trying to let you go
But you have me completely
We burned brightly but briefly

Tell me your name and the places you've been
I'll do the same
Hey, you've gotta start somewhere
And I'll crack a joke about someone we both know
And you'll crack the smile I've been waiting so long for

How long has the whole world known
What's taken me till now to see?
It's dim where it used to glow
How long has the whole world known?

Every single dream leads one place
Back to you
But it can't be true

Tell me your name

Sleeping Arrangements

That's a shitty excuse and you know it
Nevermind, then
Is it easier to hide it or show it?
Would you rather attack than defend?

Righteous living has left you exhausted
Even worse than
Feeling lonesome but also accosted
By invitations from well-meaning friends

At least you've got them
At least you've got them
When faces start warping and blurring
The nausea of being a person
Will you ever be certain again?

All this trading of content for comments
And attention
Makes you sick, you say live in the moment
But your face lights up every time you are mentioned

At least you've got them
At least you've got friends
When your fingers start cracking and curling
The nausea of being a person
I just want to feel certain again
