Feelings

[AV_defender]

All of you have wonderful talents in writing lyrics…I’ve written some too, and they often show up when I’m about to fall asleep.. found that comfortable position in bed, and everything is set and clear for dreams.. and then these show up in my head and keeps me awake until I turn on the light and grab the pen.


“Mirror”

I tell you truth about reality
Always loyal and true if you rub me
Look into me, everything there is, is you, you see
Rub me again and you’ll shine

But the mirror is broken
And all the feelings unspoken
Distort your face and truth to waste
Don’t know my taste
It’s such a haste

Want to tell you the world, but I can’t
Cracks and splinters fall down in tears
Scratches your wet cheeks while you look at me
Tell you the truth, no I shan’t
Please, use some glue and make me real

Telling lies, lies, lies, lies
And those lies ten times time multiplies
Why not going and throw me away
Don’t let me betray, not when you pray
I’m such a waste, don’t hesitate

Look into me, everything you see is what I believe
And what I believe, you can’t seem to leave
Just have to announce that I’m not what I seem
Who’s the beautifullest?
Of course it’s you
Or is it??!!
I’m like a broken mirror, so get the glue




“No Importance Of Life”


A new found world, an invitation
Glows inside my mind
Little dream I’ve been working on
Without reality on side
Common you there, set me free
There’s nothing within to loose, you see
Take of your coat and common dance with me

Chorus: with no importance of life
Search me through
Living, loving, dreaming, wishing
Dancing here only to be with you
Scan me through
Radiating eyes shining, oh that must be you
And I’m glowing too
When I feel that wars are few
Happiness, come squeeze my dreams
Kiss me in those lovely streams

Time passes on and on
Until we’re gone
And ages worn
Life can be much funnier than awake
Just let your mind free
Feel free to spread your dreams and fly away
Don’t ever stop to stay
But hey!
Would you halt your journey
To end up here with me, wind caress our cheeks like sweetest sheet
When we love together
With dancing feet

In no importance of life
Keep that in mind
The dream you all utopians follow
Marvellous land you’ll find
Just one of a kind
Dreaming days away
Showing there is no important life
Just as unimportant
As shattering thoughts

..So dance with me



“Private”


Me
I need to be me
There’s nothing else, you see
Just me

Me
I need to be free
Live like I want to be
You see

Chorus: Private is what I need
Can’t you see
Think of another way
But I won’t stay
Because
Every time I dance
I feel free
That is me
Free, free
When you’re here
I’m not free
Free to dance
Or be me

Private I don’t fear
I want it near
Freedom is my art
From end to start
Try to do as me



“Somewhere In Thoughts”


You stand here beside, right next to me
Gazing over the ruins of love
I consider to touch you, you shine right through the stars
Give me hope in the middle of wars
Consider to ask you, anything
I’m sure you’d know so much, and you can sing
I want to see in through your eyes, gleaming like the sun
Would make me smile in our silence, as if you’d said something fun
What is your voice like, when you’re in this afternoon?
If you w ere in space, would you call me from the moon??
Your mouth is open, as you’re looking at today
I’m sure that you hold your breath, just to live in a different way
Your mouth I consider to kiss
If I’d make a fall into a wish
Your body I would hold
If the colour of your eyes was told
I consider to whisper:

“I consider to touch you, but I may not
You are just too beautiful, a golden spot
Shining from the stars
I’ve heard: beauty is frail
And if I would touch you, I would only fail
‘Cause you’d brake into millions of pieces of heavenly dreams

Consider to ask you, but you might cry
The pain in your eyes, I wonder why?
Maybe you’re afraid or just modest and shy
Oh, why??

I consider to kiss you
But I know I won’t
Y

awesome! hope to hear it someday! I am envious, for when I create a song... I have no way to get it past the poem. I can sing the song to myself, but have no way of really making it a song! I get ideas in my head, but don't have any software, or keyboards or any way to actually write the music.

Way to go!

well.i have my dear synth that i can trust:)
its quite strange cause when im gonna find a first tone to a melody..i stand with a raised finger and consider where i should put it down..wherever i do put it down..it always seems to be the key for the tone in the melody that im trying to find..cool..

hre's another one..i dont know if its a poem,or song lyrics..but i wrote it some time ago when i thought what i had reached in my life this far..

We might just be one of a kind, You & Me.
We’ve both got cheated by our pasts, by things we once believed in so hard, but now we’ve discovered
that they are all just lies.

I’ve said that you’re bitter
and also in secret asked You why.
Maybe You don’t act bitter;
You might not play Your life
with sarcastic and ironic jokes
when it comes to the point…
But I can see it
in Your chestnut brown eyes..
Your lovely eyes,
which keep on watching the pass of our world, which we share together,
without ever knowing it.
We watch the same sunsets;
lay awake during the nights;
trying to understand why some things are as they are.
I can see your bitter,
thoughtful gaze gleam in the highlights of the night.
You lie there awake and listen to the sound of the Berlin-cars,
while the both of your loves are sleeping deeply,
far away from You, the lonely in the night.
I wish that I could guide Your wonderings, but just as You, I will also end up bitter.
Bitter on how life has treated me this far and why in this way.
Bitter because love did never stay
or even live…
Only slipping through my fingers
when I finally thought that I’ve caught it Forever.
-“ The eyes are the mirror of Your soul”
and I can see that You are full of love,
but only so stuffed by disappointments from Your experiences from life,
that You’ve been carrying on this far.
Your eyes reflect the product of Your past.
I can see it in Your eyes that You wouldn’t say no
if You were offered to enter the light, just to avoid those lonely,
sleepless nights in Your Berlin-bed.
So alone in the dark.
There will also I be lying in the future, when You are long gone and released from the weight of Your thoughts in the night.
Maybe one night,
You will see my gleaming gaze,
glowing like stars cause of the tears which are trying to wash away the pain,
but they’ve already failed so many times.
Maybe You will understand in this moment that I need You to hold me,
so you would stretch out Your soft,
warm hand to me,
and I would grab it.

Maybe You could set me free because You caught me so many years ago.

i just wrote this one for a very special person.



"The D song"


Love kills me
softly
I can not hold you
You don't know how much I want to
have You
You
the star in the sky
the flower in the field
I wonder why
I have to love
something I can not reach
no matter how much I stretch
distance
even when You're near
right here
with Your warm knee against mine
I close my eyes
and enjoy the growing warmth
accelerates the heart

I live
and You
so near
thereI want to hold you
Miracle of life
to see Your smile
is oxygen
life
I breathe Your beauty
enormous
like universe
Your eyes
You are not like other guys
You laugh,play silly
wonderful
and never chilly
by feelings

why was I born
with a misterie
that repeats itself
and remains too long
I'm not that strong
to let it go
please show
and solve the secret spell
the curse
makes me feel worse
when I choose the wrong path
all because of You
Love
I need You so
You're an everlasting...

Hej defender, I like your lyrics the better and better the more they get! You evolve (this may sound arrogant but it isnt meant that way!)! I love the poetic metaphors like "Mirror" (this one is brilliant!) and the philosophic thoughts (like the last stanza of "D", where I also love the beautiful expressions)! In between, sometimes, I think that yoù might be still more in telling a story then writing it for music. The rhymes seem a little bit constructed, sometimes. But it`s hard to say, as I havent heard the music you wrote to it, so maybe it sounds just great this way and is an element of the singing-style...

[AV_defender]

thank you for your kind words, Romeo!!
i know that some of my lyrics may be more like stories..cause thats the way ive been writing my philosophies b4 i went over to song writing. the song D is specially made for a specific person,who i just cant get out of my mind..and one day i just wrote down some things i feel for him..he is a wonder...
mirror was written like a follow up to "D" even if i wrote mirror first.its about "the wrong path" that i mentioned in "D"...
and at that point i really felt like a mirror of some kind.

Those words have been honest,not just kind, defender:-)
When I write songs they are also mostly very personal about/inspired by people I love/wonder about/fear/worry about. So I tend to story-telling, too. But as my songs are allways very metaphoric this is no problem with rhymes as you can put they easily in a new context. When This doesnt work, I just tell a story in rapping/recitative. But as imagine your music I guess i wouldnt suit(?)
When you feel like a mirror, allways be aware of what`s behind.
One of my most-beloved lyrical parts (Its so famous, but i dont know from whom it is-I think Shakespeare?): "Der Spiegel ist gebrochen, doch das Auge reflektiert" (the mirror is broken but the eye keeps on reflecting)
