Daydreaming

I've been giving my best Thinking that day is on rest She will come back Wearing a throne on her head Not so sure anymore There's no hope, no more I need voices to pull me I need hands to push me Or so I think Do I really need? Would I want my head to sold out to them I have kinda heart toward it You'd think It's moth to flame Yearning to be burned, It's tame Though I think Do I really need? So I go falling into her arms So I go falling into her arms ... -2017

Daydreaming 03:50
In the past when I was a little girl They kept me from outside And devils from people's sides I've never known what evil means Never need to know what mean means Everywhere was pure I've never needed dreams Daydreaming, I'm daydreaming Looking for those eyes to pull me alive Daydreaming now I'm daydreaming Looking for my past Looking for those eyes and smiles I heard everyone said you can't Go forward if you stuck in your past Pasts are not trash They are my compass to Be out of the cycle of my life I'm holding tight my past to not Return the places I've been before Now just close your eyes for a while Don't go to sleep there's something waiting to be solved With some time you'll see Daydreaming, I'm daydreaming Looking for those eyes to pull me alive Daydreaming now I'm daydreaming Looking for my past Looking for those eyes and smiles -2014

Forest 06:49
Forest There are underneath us all Fighting But there is no ending to this war Because it's people, they never stop bleeding But I'm dying And I'm sick of all these lives with their jokes That goes running inside, dying but never stops And there is no change in the air but there is no life neither Oh soon he'll be down Oh so soon they'll be down "Can't you see all these mistakes that put us through?" I say "Can't you see all the ignorance made us do?" you say There's no other way she could throw it away No other way she could throw it all away She keeps calling but there is no one to hear She keeps crawling but there is no one to hold on to Just tonight be silent Or lie back on your back watch the sky Could be our only way to get out of this hell She could cry all she wants but there's no way to go faster She knows it well Someday there'll be a ghost of me choking them out Someday there will be a ghost of me I'll never stop waiting Some other day we will scream long and loud There will be a time when we can build our own lives But for now, we just have to wait and listen We just have to wait and listen What if you were gone I'd have no home You'll be sleeping under the sky What if you were gone I'd have no home You'll be sleeping under the sky Where would I go? Where would I go? Do you hear them walking in your forest? There is no other way to reach him but under the surface -2017

Own Spirit 04:21
Life will get away as long as you try to catch it Your world will crumble as you try to fix it Said my mama, once we survived Hope, such a funny little thing I've got no money in my pocket No picture in my locket That's the life as we know it Burning from the horizon But there's no lie in it I'm alone in my own Own spirit Try to hold on to full sides of this life Take your wishes with yourself 'till the end Said the old man once he survived Fate, such a funny unknown thing I've got no money in my pocket No picture in my locket That's the life as we know it Burning from the horizon But there's no lie in it I'm alone in my own Own spirit -2014

Do you see all these battles we live in and try to breathe in? Do you think now the stars will collapse? Do you think all these movies we watch will be branded into our minds? Do they really make us happy or give fake hope? So I'll be gone waiting for a long farewell You see it's not a dream it's just people's make And we will be waiting for them to come and smash away our clouds of dreams Down again Down my fingertips, I feel I don't know how to get these all out of my head Oh my god I don't know how to get lost and I'm tired of feeling Feeling everything Feeling anything Do you think all these people you see will take your side when you are the one that have power? So you'll see Do you think everyone is the same? So they will brush you aside when they have no fright from you So I'll be gone waiting for a long farewell You see it's not a dream It's just one step away We will be waiting for them to come and smash away our clouds of beliefs Down again Down my fingertips, I feel I don't know how to get these all out of my head Breathing still, I don't know how to get lost and I'm tired of feeling Feeling everything Feeling anything -2016

Ball of Lies 03:50
Lights Lights in everywhere but I I can't seem to make them mine Every life in that street is full of foggy souls Don't wanna be one of them Don't wanna hide from my reality There's no way but going forward There's a smile in the sky Waiting for a long drawn out lullaby Just like me looking for her friends everywhere But no need There's always sky and stars to look For the times you've got nothing left to say In this ball of lies I can't see No, I can't see clearly What's next ahead of me I know you feel alone Turning around the same cycle makes you think What you do in your life to make a difference Thinking deeply no I'm not I'm not gonna be a product Of these sick hands of desire Sky is there for you to realize you worth living There's always stars to shine on you to make you see the lights but sometimes you might say In this ball of lies I can't see No, I can't see clearly What's next ahead of me -2014

So You Cry 07:06
Come now and break all these walls To tell me what is going on You are dying underneath the sky To calm me down, to calm me down You tell me Journeys of your soul But hold the stories you have tight Even they're not enough They will worth What's been right in front of our eyes Are now fixed into our minds Tell me how would we bring our lives up Is that in your dreams that you hide? You hide So today You see Some are going under the shore You grow in your hate But it will make you cautious, they say So you pray You fake as everybody expects And you try your own best Then you cry You cry and cry For separated loves And you wait and wait for the right time So they can chew up all their lies You just wish to see him once more again So we will seek We will feel Don't you see We grow stronger by time We grow stronger by time Time So you say all in your chest And you take what they took from you And you pray for the days you get to see Then you cry For the mess that they left behind -2016

about

Thank you endlessly to my big brother who has always been my biggest supporter. None of these would have happened if it weren't for your never-ending support and trust in me. Thank you to my parents and my little sisters for never complaining about me having little concerts of mine in my room for years. And never once complaining about being quiet while I was recording in my bedroom. And lastly, thank you to everybody who has been with me for years. Every soul I came across in my life that has reached my heart, you are all in this record.
I wrote these songs at different times in the variety of different places, cities between the years 2014-2017. I recorded all of them in the corner of my bedroom. I have put my heart and soul into this record while making my dream come true. It's finally out there!
