Sounds Like
An all consuming night that
chills you to the bone but
you’re too drunk to feel it.
Countless attempts of writing something that makes sense later I’ll just go with what comes to my mind this time. Huh.
I’m damaged goods. I experienced all the shit you go through when someone who is close to you has cancer for years. And ultimately I experienced loss. It’s a little uncomfortable to share this so plainly but that’s like my deepest root and this doesn’t work without it. My music is sort of a therapy for me. The writing. The singing. The playing. And I hope that the sharing helps as well since I’m coping rather poorly and maybe it helps others too and they enjoy what I do. Especially the last part would be nice.
Besides that I believe that my songs are open for interpretation, that they can speak to you in many different ways and that my lyrics are relatable in a relatively big variety of situations. I mostly have certain moments in my mind while I write a song but I would love to hear if they mean something to you.
Apart from the music I also like to do other ‘artsy’ things like drawing or painting. Or taking photos with my craptastic camera. You’ll get to see some of the results. It’s something I do just out of fun since I’m lacking talent but oh well.
Lastly I want to get to know people through myspace. It’s really fascinating to me how you can communicate with people all over the world and I don’t know… I’m curious. And after I finished my last year of school I plan to travel across the USA so it would be nice to know somebody every now and then. But of course I’m glad about every form of contact, please don’t be shy (that’s already my part).
