A song about those kind of nights when you drink a bit too much and start re-evaluating your life.

And I walked through the woods
Evening traffic roars behind like wolves in the night
Would things change if I could?
Conversations in my mind

Just a few steps more
Killed by the calm in your voice
Just a few steps more
Drowned in the depths of your eyes
Just a few steps more
Ripples on the stream
Guided by the autumn leaves

And I get lost in the noise
Just following your voice
Questions on the breeze
Guided by the autumn leaves

Easy like one, two, three
Was it something you did to me?
Your presence unseen takes me from behind
Ask me your questions
Get the same answers each time.

Just a few steps more
Killed by the calm in your voice
Just a few steps more
Drowned in the depths of your eyes
Just a few steps more
Ripples on the stream
Guided by the autumn leaves

Through The Woods

I had this guitar lick kicking around for ages and ages. I didn't really know what to do with it until my friend Lucoline (https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/GAJYT) had a go at it and we came up with this.

Lyrics:
The moon looks sharp tonight
cutting through the atmosphere
dark shadows pierce the light
so lonely and austere

my breath fogs up like ice
but all my thoughts are crystal clear
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here

Sharp footsteps pound behind
stirring up my hopes and fears
your voice rings clear and bright
it echoes in my ears

Such force and eloquence
that every word is insincere
I won't let you break my stride
I am getting out of here

What do you take me for?
You don't love me anymore
and I'm not the girl to stick around 
just to numb your pain
Your broken and wounded soul
it only keeps you in control
but I realized and it's hit me like
a bullet to my brain

Getting Out (feat. Lucoline)

Riding on a train
Breathe in, don't pay it any mind
If the patterns of your thought 
Seem to lack design
Fall short of the line

My baby keeps the time
He beats the life into my troubled mind
And I see it all align
In my sheltered mind
We are just fine
Until I fly too near the moon 
Tonight

Can I be the stitch that you feel
When you sleep, the flicker of the sheets 
And the gleam that you see 
Some nights between your dreams

Riding on a train – I know we're gonna be there sometime
But my baby needs the time
He needs more time 
Just to keep the beat alive

Look me in the eye tonight
Guarantees are hard to find
But you see the tell-tale signs
Life is a train passing by
A waiting room, another ride
We will be all right

And you will be the stitch that I feel
When I sleep, the flicker of the sheets 
And the gleam that I see 
Some nights between my dreams

And there will be a distant gleam
It is so faint you cannot see it in the day
But it will come to find you at night

Between Your Dreams

Second Dance

Thunder in the morning
What a way to start the day
I can feel it please believe it
These longing deep inside

All things they say must pass
While I cry for you through the glass
Is it true time is gone like tears in the rain?

Always I have known it
Some things are meant to be
So let's find the thing we search for
True love is worth fighting for

If you say you love me too
I know we'll find our way through
Is it true love is forever in your eyes?

I have always thought
That our fears are much too strong
But our feelings are now seeded
With towers yet to show
With time they'll grow and grow
It's a second dance I'm yours if you want to

Second Dance - Acoustic

A practice take of my first live set as mutinaa. The show was at Pyöräpaja's Komponenttikirppis event on April 20th, 2024.

Komponenttikirppis live set (a practice take)

Lyrics:

I was looking out the window 
The morning light was pretty on the meadow
But I was feeling only sorrow 
'Cos you would leave me tomorrow

I don't feel well I said
I need your sunshine in my bed
Won’t you stay with me instead 
Working is good but I like you too honey

Keep it going you said
Don’t think what other might think
Do it don’t hesitate
Liberation’s on the other side of the fear

I was feeling kinda lonely
You went away with my bucket
Had a monkey wrench in my hand
It was time to think more lightly in my head

Go! Do what you wish for
Liberation is in my own hands
Birds are singing in the tree
Im gonna do my work as good as I can

Keep it going you said
Don’t think what other might think
Do it don’t hesitate
Joy is the work that you love doing

Keep it going you said
Don’t think what other might think
Do it don’t hesitate
Liberation on the other side of the fear
And generation Dream street is what we are honey

I met a girl, so I wrote this song. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My favorite song of all time, since childhood. Hope this lo-fi one-take cover does it justice...

Faller

Took some two years, but back to exploring songwriting. This one still needs some lyrics and maybe proper intro and transitions. Also need to sing less out of pitch on some parts... Recorded on a mobile phone.

Lyrics:

Fates

You know, if I left you today
The things we said, forever they will stay
But it really don't matter to me
What has gone is in the past, I believe

So let's go, our own way
Life would be easy, once again
Please believe me, when I say
Our fates will cross again

You said things would be better, if we tried
But one can only try, so many times

So let's go, our own way
How many times can we play this game?
It all won't even matter, in the end
Our fates will cross again

Between Your Dreams
