about

What i like most about this track is that it is very ironic. Because music is actually very fun to sing and cute. However if you read the lyrics without listening the music you might think it's a mellow, slow song. I love it! I wrote this song in a night bus. I was on my way to my grandma. Everybody was sleeping, i was bored and all alone. I had 10 hours to kill. So i opened my ipad, put my headphones on to listen the draft record of the song and finished it in that bus. I was only 17 at the time. I was so happy with the song. Even tough I had many songs by then none of them were as catchy as this one.

lyrics

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
