This is one of the songs that actually landed in the drawer first... I kinda thought it was too "preachy" to publish it in a way.
But the other day I read another one of those "lovely" articles that informs you about how an area in Syria has been bombed again and almost 200 children were killed.
I suddenly remembered the song, played it to a close friend and decided to put it out there after all.

News?

I had  a song  To sing  So long  long ago  Held  close in  my bones
No one  Could see  it through  the fog  It kept me  Safe  from  Everyone
Every  Girl was a child once  Singing  Out on a limb
I climb up  to the broken tree  Feel my  way back to me
All this time  Waiting for what  I didn’t know ( Didn’t know)
Told myself  I was falling  but now I know  I was flying towards true  True True  Flying towards true, true, true
I’ve got horizons  I'm seeing colors  All the horizons  I'm singing colors
I am holding my ancient bones  Tell me  What do you hear
Old sound  making its way through me  New song  Drawing me near
Lost my own way for so long  didn't know what I'd find  kept me away for so long  body is sound in rewind
All this time  Waiting for what  I didn’t know ( Didn’t know)
Told myself  I was falling  but now I know  I was flying towards true  True True  Flying towards true, true, true
I’ve got horizons  I'm seeing colors  All the horizons  I'm singing colors
Waiting there to see couldn’t  Get that she was me I was
All this time  Waiting for what  I didn’t know ( Didn’t know)
Told myself  I was falling  but now I know  I was flying towards true  True True  Flying towards true, true, true
I’ve got horizons  I'm seeing colors  All the horizons  I'm singing colors

There’s a lion king in the jungle trees
I am naked with a heart that gleams
He walks to me slow with his mane glistening
Then I wake up shivering

I dream of you, it’s your desiring stare
Exotic, hypnotic, oh but baby I am scared
But you never said you wanted me, so why do I care?

Caught in fantasy
Lost in fantasy
Got to stop the feelings
Caught in fantasy
Lost in fantasy
Got to stop the feelings

You keep to yourself like it’s the law of the land
No phone calls with your line in the sand
Then you’re in my house with your voice is quivering
And your lust keeps lingering

Oh I come alive when you are near
Exotic, hypnotic, you’re an exciting fear
But you never said you wanted me, so why are you here?

Lost in fantasy
Got to stop the feelings
Caught by fantasy
Lost in fantasy
Got to stop the feelings

There’s a lion king in the jungle trees
He don’t come close though I know he is hungry
Is this one new, he might be who I need
Then he says “it’s you, you’ll see”

Caught by fantasy
Lost in fantasy
Got to stop the feelings
Caught by fantasy
Lost in fantasy
Got to stop the feelings
