Say what you mean If you get it wrong just try again for me If I play along then we won't be alone We've come this far you had time for me and I became your friend You were kind to me when I was so alone I am scared I feel fake But you are someone I won't turn away I am unhappy And you are too We're not perfect And I need you Don't let me hide When you come inside oh I feel so alive If you stay inside then we won't be alone I am scared I feel fake But you are someone I won't turn away I am unhappy And you are too We're not perfect And I need you

The Movies 05:22
playing you back like a movie life will appear in the face on the screen all that I want is emotion let me give in to the pain on the face like a clown writing you songs isn’t easy words should appear but they don’t when you’re near spending my time with the lonely feelings I get when you turn off the light to lie down what I show you about me I show you in my songs as you tell me your bad dreams I sing every one playing you back like a movie watching the scenes of the people you’ve been seeing the change in your motion every move is a step toward feeling the ground hiding my heart like a monster making my pact with the face on the screen the movie will show you I love you follow the plot as I turn off my light to lie down what I show you about me I show you in my songs as we act in our movie I sing every one

Starlight 03:14
I don’t know why we are born and we die you and I I feel your eyes looking down from the sky in the night starlight I know you are so far away just help me come home no one knows you but you’re pure and you’re true and you shine oh don’t feel blue that your light isn’t bright we’d go blind starlight I know you are so far away just help me come home
4.
now your mom is gone she let go in your arms and it’s alright, yeah yeah as you let her go I want you to know we love you, yeah yeah it’s alright, it’s alright she went down the mountain a light in a red sunrise like an eye, yeah yeah now your fear is gone and I want to be with you to say goodnight, yeah yeah it's alright, it's alright
5.
I will love you forever how I want you to stay curious and clever enjoy yourself this way enjoy yourself this way I was born in September and you in January every month is a pleasure enjoy this love with me enjoy this love with me when the leaves fall onto your shoulders when the snow pushes you when the wind comes to blow me over will I always mean what I meant to you? will I always mean what I meant to you? I will love you forever how I know what you are radiant like the moon glows enjoy this light, from all the stars enjoy this light, from all the stars as the sun hits your shoulder as it shines on your hair on a day in November enjoy this love, and I’ll be there enjoy this love, and I’ll be there when the leaves fall onto your shoulders when the snow pushes you when the wind comes to blow me over will I always mean what I meant to you? will I always mean what I meant to you?

What I Meant 04:09
I’m not having fun here I’m just on my own no one ever comes around no one that I know you say someone saw me but I don’t think they did I’m not who you think I am I’m not what I said I wish I had told you what was going on something that I’d hoped for now has gone so wrong love it when you come here that was what I said I am all alone here that was what I meant

I wanna sing to a room full of strangers just for fun, oh what could be stranger? but what I really want is your trust and this singing, I hope it’s enough ‘cause I don’t know what I am doing doing, doing, doing and I hope, that you don’t think it’s strange, it’s strange, it’s strange, it’s strange I know I seem insane for acting like a clown I seem out of my mind but I won’t let you down I wanna sing to a room full of drunks for their applause, oh what have I done ‘cause what I really want is your love and this applause I hope it’s enough I don’t know what I am doing doing, doing, doing and I hope, that you don’t think it’s strange, it’s strange, it’s strange, it’s strange I know I seem insane for acting like a clown I seem out of my mind but I won’t let you down

about

This is a small collection of songs that were written at different times over the last two years. Some of them were written during the same time as Are You Alone? but did not end up on that album for one reason or another. Others were written and recorded for fun last summer.
I want to release all these songs because I like them a lot and since I am working on new music, my attention will inevitably go to that new music and these songs will be forgotten, and forgotten songs are sad.

So this isn't an album, and it isn't an album of "new music", but it's a collection of older songs that I like and that I feel deserve to be released.

Note: The recordings might sound a bit rough, I mixed and mastered it myself and am in the process of learning how to be better at that...
