LYRICS + track
THORNS
You want to get to know me but I am so different
From what you think that I could be
I keep my secrets in my glass bell so that no one could see
And I make the same mistake
In you I see my reflection
This thorns ain’t keeping me safe
And I make the same mistake
My walls are starting to break
This thorns ain’t keeping me safe
Give me the time to fix my brokenness
So no one else could see it

DANCE OF LIFE
THE SINGLE IS OUT NOW!
06.06.2025
I would do anything
For this moment to last an eternity
Is not enough to know
What tomorrow holds
I would do anything to go back in time and maybe
To the better days there are yet to come
Can’ t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to be born, a time to die
This is the dance of life
Can’t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to love m, a time to cry
This is the dance of life
I would do anything
To live again this memories
That’s all I’ve got
When the rest is gone
I would do anything to go back in time and maybe
To the better days there are yet to come
Can’ t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to hold, a time to let go
This is the dance of life
Can’t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to search, a time to give up
This is the dance of life
Good times, bad times, nothing is forever but
Treasure every moment while you can (x2)
Can’ t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to be born a time to die
This is the dance of life
Can’t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to love a time to cry
This is the dance of life
Can’t you see, there is a time for everything
A time to love a time to cry
This is the dance of life

'BEHIND THE SCENE'
I have never felt so far away
Please help me find my way
I don’t think I can fit it
I don’t feel comfortable in my own skin
I’m barely breathing
To make you believe
That my life is better than a dream
Behind the Scenes
There’s another part of me
Behind the Scenes,
There is more than you can see
I have also learned in my life
There is that smiley face that is often a mask
Life is a stage where we act
We need to to our best to play our part
In the end the cortains closed
That’s all you’ve seen,
That’s all I want you to believe

'THORNS'
You want to get to know me but I am so different
From what you think that I could be
I keep my secrets in my glass bell so that no one could see
And I make the same mistake
In you I see my reflection
This thorns ain’t keeping me safe
And I make the same mistake
My walls are starting to break
This thorns ain’t keeping me safe
Give me the time to fix my brokenness
So no one else could see it
