[Verse 1]
Half a step from where I stood
Said I might, never said I would
Traced your name across the glass
Watched the moment slowly pass

[Pre-Chorus]
Too much doubt, too little to say
You moved on while I looked away

[Chorus]
Took the long way from maybe
Drew a line, then looked away
Held my breath while you were waiting
Now there’s nothing left to say
You were steady, I was slow
Now I walk this road alone

[Verse 2]
Called your name, then changed my mind
Hoped you’d read between the lines
Told myself it’s not too late
But fear will always hesitate

[Pre-Chorus]
Held back words I thought you’d understand
Now they’re ashes in my hands
[Chorus]
Took the long way from maybe
Let it drift, then walked away
Built a wall instead of meaning
Now there’s nothing I can say
You were ready, I said no
Now I walk this road alone

[Bridge]
Built a home on ifs and when
Closed the door, then asked again
Watched you leave without a sound
Now I’m stuck on this battleground

[Final Chorus]
Took the long way from maybe
Truth was there, I looked away
Spoke too soft and far too slowly
Now there’s nothing left to say
You were sure, and I was slow
Now I walk this road alone

[Outro]
The signs were clear, I looked away
Now it’s just me and yesterday

Long Way From Maybe

Welcome to my artist page!

Music is more than just sound—it's emotion, experience, and storytelling. Through my compositions, I strive to give melodies a voice that speaks of the moments, memories, and feelings that move me. Each piece is a reflection of my journey, a way to capture and share the depth of emotions that words alone cannot express.

My greatest wish is to create music that resonates with you, that evokes emotions, and that perhaps even becomes part of your own story. Whether it's a feeling of nostalgia, peace, or inspiration, I hope my sounds accompany you on your path and bring you beautiful, meaningful moments.

If you enjoy my work and would like to support me, I’d truly appreciate it. You can find all the relevant links below.

Thank you for being here, for listening, and for sharing this journey with me.

With love and music,
Reýem

An Epic Novel. A Sonic Universe. One True Story.

Welcome to the sonic universe of "Behind Us The Land" (Hinter uns das Land). What began as a soundtrack for an epic historical novel has evolved into a global, cross-genre music phenomenon, celebrated by millions of listeners and a worldwide community of artists.

Discover the different worlds within this project:

The official soundtrack to the 80-year true story of the Feyerabend family.

The epic progressive metal of the virtual band Adelheide's Wisdom.

The chart-topping indie pop of the virtual artist Ulla F.

Helmed by author, producer, and lifelong music curator Frank Talmon l'Armée, this project is the result of a deep-seated passion for music and storytelling. As the human visionary, he employs a hybrid method of traditional songwriting and the pioneering use of AI tools as his "orchestra" to bring this monumental saga to life.

This is a place for deep listeners, for fans of epic stories and genre-defying music. Dive in, explore the albums and playlists, and become part of a story that connects the past with the future.

At its heart, 'Behind Us The Land' is more than just the 80-year story of one German family. It's a universal parable about loss, resilience, and the unbreakable will to build a new home from the ruins – a story that repeats itself tens of thousands of times every single day, all over the world. Our music aims to give a voice to this universal experience and to inspire courage.

OUR VISION & MISSION

Our Vision: We believe that resilience can make even the deepest wounds bearable.

Our Mission: This project is dedicated to a profoundly human, true story to achieve two things:

To Bear Witness: To show what war does to ordinary people and how its scars echo for generations.

To Give Courage: To strengthen and inspire anyone who has suffered loss or lived through difficult times.

This is music as a testament. A story that repeats itself every day.

Ein Romanepos. Ein Klanguniversum. Eine wahre Geschichte.

Willkommen im Klang-Universum von "Hinter uns das Land". Was als Soundtrack zu einem epischen historischen Roman begann, hat sich zu einem globalen, genre-übergreifenden Musikphänomen entwickelt, das von Millionen von Hörern und einer weltweiten Community von Künstlern gefeiert wird.

Entdecken Sie die verschiedenen Welten innerhalb dieses Projekts:

Den offiziellen Soundtrack zur 80-jährigen, wahren Saga der Familie Feyerabend.

Den epischen Progressive Metal der virtuellen Band Adelheide's Wisdom.

Den chartstürmenden Indie-Pop der virtuellen Künstlerin Ulla F.

Geführt von Autor, Produzent und Musik-Kurator Frank Talmon l'Armée, ist dieses Projekt das Ergebnis einer lebenslangen Leidenschaft für Musik und das Erzählen von Geschichten. Als menschlicher Visionär nutzt er eine hybride Methode aus traditionellem Songwriting und dem wegweisenden Einsatz von KI-Werkzeugen als sein "Orchester", um diese monumentale Saga zum Leben zu erwecken.

Dies ist ein Ort für anspruchsvolle Hörer, für Fans von epischen Geschichten und genre-sprengender Musik. Tauchen Sie ein, erforschen Sie die Alben und Playlists und werden Sie Teil einer Geschichte, die die Vergangenheit mit der Zukunft verbindet.

Im Herzen ist 'Hinter uns das Land' mehr als nur die 80-jährige Geschichte einer deutschen Familie. Es ist eine universelle Parabel über Verlust, Widerstandsfähigkeit und den unzerbrechlichen Willen, aus den Trümmern eine neue Heimat zu schaffen – eine Geschichte, die sich täglich zigtausendfach auf der ganzen Welt wiederholt. Unsere Musik soll dieser universellen Erfahrung eine Stimme geben und Mut machen.

UNSERE VISION & MISSION

Unsere Vision: Wir glauben daran, dass Resilienz selbst die tiefsten Wunden erträglich machen kann.

Unsere Mission: Dieses Projekt widmet sich einer zutiefst menschlichen, wahren Geschichte, um zwei Dinge zu erreichen:

Zeugnis ablegen: Zu zeigen, was Krieg mit normalen Menschen macht und wie seine Narben über Generationen nachhallen.

Mut machen: Jeden zu stärken und zu inspirieren, der Verlust erlitten oder schwere Zeiten durchlebt hat.

Das ist Musik als Vermächtnis. Eine Geschichte, die sich täglich wiederholt.

Ein Projekt von Beyond & Before Music.
