about

Recording "Sideways" was such fun that I decided to do another 90s indie shoegaze song, but somehow it started reminding me of Emo. Which is why I added emo lyrics. Like many of this year's FAWM I had the idea during our morning conference call, where I turn my mic off at some point and start strumming my little travel guitar. It's where and when I have the best ideas. Bless home office.

lyrics

Not you again
I had hoped to see somebody happy
smiling
Not you again
Wasn't there somebody with a passion
striving

Can I be any different
I wanna see myself
and be confronted with someone I like
Can you make me any different
I am disengaged
From the person that I used to like
Disengaged
I am disengaged
From myself

Take me back
To the days when all the roads were open
But I lost track
And ended off far from where I was hoping
Moping

Can I be any different
I wanna see myself
and be confronted with someone I like
Can you make me any different
I am disengaged
From the person that I used to like
Disengaged
I am disengaged
From myself

I had it in my hands
Gave it away again
You don't know what you got until it's drained
I chose security
Til it got the best of me
And an empty shell is all that now remains
Disengaged
I am disengaged
From myself

about

ampersandman Berlin, Germany

I put my pants on just like the rest of you -- one leg at a time. Except, once my pants are on, I make songs that no one cares about.
