een ruimte
vol sterren
steeds ouder
en verder
een tijd vol
planeten
weet jij wel
hoe ze heten
weet jij hoe
we draaien
in rondjes
voor altijd
een avond
in utrecht
ik luister naar
je adem

en altijd
een avond
een park met
een bankje
en altijd
verwachting
we lopen
de nacht in
het licht in
je ogen
gevonden
fotonen
op een ochtend
in utrecht
ik luister naar
je adem

Music, mix & lyrics by @Guiville
Vocals by Libby
--
This track is inspired by one of the very first instrumental pieces I uploaded over 12 years ago. Huge thanks to Libby for bringing my lyrics to life with her beautiful vocals.

The original acoustic version can be found here: https://soundcloud.com/guiville/tess-be-kind 

The music itself was originally inspired by the 1956 film Tea and Sympathy, particularly the poignant line: "Years from now, when you talk about this, and you will be kind."

This song captures the hollow feeling of landing the job you thought you wanted, only to find it slowly draining your spirit. The lyrics take a poetic, sideways look at modern work life, fluorescent lights, endless paperwork, and the quiet grief of trading your dreams for a steady paycheque. It’s about the tension between freedom and security, and the way routine can feel like a cage, even when you’ve built it yourself.

I signed my name,
With trembling hand,
To a promise that pays,
But does not understand.

The clock strikes nine,
A funeral chime,
For the boy who once
Believed in rhyme.

The boss smiles thin,
Like a priest at sin,
And says, "Well done, you’ve made it."
But my soul stays vacant.

And I type, and I type,
'Til my fingers lose their fight,
In a room with no view,
Where the daylight feels untrue.

The vending machine,
Is my only friend,
It hums like mercy,
But eats my spend.

The laughter rings,
Like broken glass,
While my dreams are filed
Under “Never Ask.”

And I sign, and I sign,
On the dotted, cursed line,
While the ceiling caves in,
With fluorescent sin.

Oh, freedom is a coat
I wore when I was young,
Now moths and memories
Have chewed it undone.

So I leave at five,
But I’m never free,
This desk, this job,
It works for me.
It works for me.
Oh, it works on me.

Lately I've been feeling down, no one to blame
That's all I know but it feels so strange
The little things, they just don't feel the same
No, they don't feel like anything..

I'm feeling like my heart's been busted
And all the shiny parts got rusted
Don't feel like I can be trusted
Have I always felt like this? Well I must have 

And I couldn't forget even though I tried..


I want to sit in your shadow
and watch you shine
I want your love
but you don't want mine
It hit me like a wall
Struck me where I lie
Damn I miss the days
Where my mind was really mine 

And I couldn't forget even though I tried..

couldn't forget (with Seafoam Sweater Girl)

Oh yeah my life burn
Yeah that fucking happens when i get hurt 
Oh yeah my life burn
Yeah that fucking happens when i get hurt 

Oh yeah, time to move 
No i cannot think of a hoe 
Try to forget but i cannot stay strong 

Yeah i’m so cold
Can you pick up?
Can’t take no more
O-Only want drugs 
Can you pick up?
Can’t take no more
(Can’t take no)

Oh yeah, time to move 
No i cannot think-
Only want drugs 
Can you pick up?
Can’t take no more
(Only want)

Oh yeah my life burn
Yeah that fucking happens when i get hurt 
Oh yeah, time to move 
No i cannot think of a hoe 
Try to forget but i cannot stay strong 

Yeah i’m so cold
Can you pick up?
Can’t take no more

(O-Only want drugs)
(Can you pick up?)
(Can’t take no more)
(Can’t take no)
(Oh yeah, time to move)
(No i cannot think-)
(Only want drugs)
(Can you pick up?)
(Can’t take no more)
(Only want)

Lyrics:
Play pretend
Say we're friends
Odds and ends
Strange dividends

Stabbed in the back
A weak attack
Insomniac
Of the Zodiac

Crucify
This Goodbye
A battle cry
On standby

Say no more
Close the door
Forevermore
On this metaphor

I wish you well
In sweet pastel
An infadel
On the carousel

Heart breaker
