I describe my ongoing lyrics writing projects. Where I get my ideas, how I match my words with other people's music, which little helpers I use...

yet another rewrite for "Hold on"

Okay, okay - that was not how Craig envisioned the song. I had thought as much. I reshaped my 2nd version of "Hold on" slightly by shifting the second 'pre-chorus' to its appropriate place. And I will write yet another version with verses, prechoruses,...

Re-writing "Hold on"

Craig is working on another version for "Hold on", the original version originating from MotorPlanet. He requires two additional parts. But he also interprets the different song parts quite differently from me, so maybe my suggestions may not meet his...

shed my skin - I

While watching a beautiful young swimmer at the public pool this morning I remembered that I used to envy a classmate in my school days. He was beautiful, he was a great athlete, he was everybody's darling - he seemed to have everything that I lacked....

secret door (was: solipsistic creations)

I've put down another verse: when you left I felt something you might call a sense of liberation but after weeks and months had passed I made a disturbing observation I wasted time with heavy drinking, brooding, and procrastination sitting here and feeling...

solipsistic creations

Don't worry, the title of my next project will NOT be "solipsistic creations". This expression sprang to my mind for no particular reason during my lunch break yesterday. Out of a sudden there was that thought "I should write some text containing the...

in the wink of an eye - finished
