Panama Paper
Just hide behind your Gucci shades
Your people will yacht you away
Another place to hide in fear
A sunny jail until another Black Monday
'Hey boss! Is that you on this page,
next to the giant skyscraper?'
It's going viral, your caviar
might topple onto this morning's Panama paper
I'm that big wall of sound
that'll rock you out of your shells
I'll be the amplifier,
and I aim my blue notes
right at the bows of your boats
Let's rock!
Yeah let's rock!
Come on!
You're locked behind these bars of gold
You pay no tax and stroke your ego
We have everything you never had
your greed is where reality goes
'Hey boss! Is that you on this page?
Thank God you're a market shaper.'
It's going viral, your caviar
might topple onto this morning's Panama paper.
When you barely pay your dues,
and then squander all your wealth.
Did you ever realize,
that you're just a child that cries.

Dreams
Her face lit up when he smiled
And when his eyebrows told her stories
Her polished nails made him giggle
When she stoke her fingers through his hair
'You are all my dreams'
They were too colourful to be grey
But they made their inner lovers play
An endless golden ballad to each other
They were living and breathing, didn't bother
Chasing their dreams
They still walked hand in hand together
Reached their heart's next destiny
She couldn't wear heels anymore
So he sweat to keep up to (her) speed
'We're living our dreams'
'We're living our dreams'
They were too colourful to be grey
But they made their inner lovers play
An endless golden ballad to each other
They were living and breathing, didn't bother
Chasing their dreams
Life can be what you want it to be
No matter how hard they tell you it's not
It's your reality you're living in
And only you can decide to live your dreams
'We're chasing our dreams'
'We're chasing our dreams'

Orion
How did I get here
right in the open field
No move seems to make any sense
Just standing here and staring
Ran away from the scorpion
Cause her twisted mind just needs
To feel my disgust
And my fear of her poison
And then I looked up to you Orion
Can you lend me your sword?
I don't know if I can take anymore
If I can take anymore..
So now I'm right here Orion
Wondering how to fight the beast
Without ending up above
Like the way you did
You were brave, I am weak,
I am sure she will find me
Fireflies leave the field
Where you're shining bright
If only we could use your sword
To reflect your brave brightness
Right into her eyes
She'll be blind and I'll survive (2x)
I can't take it anymore (3x)

Fate
I used to choose my own direction
And let that be my guide
Not a single thunderstorm
Can make me float away with the tide
I tried to seperate 'right' from 'wrong'
And those I care for will feel my drive
For them I'll sacrifice
But how will I survive?
I don't believe in fate
But certain things just seem to happen for a reason
I'm used to be in control,
'Deny the miracle', but then I was blown away
Did I ever really live my life?
Or am I scared to bleed?
Afraid but dying inside?
How can I tell what I need?
I never really lost myself
Always ran away from the unknown
But I am lonely
It feels worse than being all alone
If I believed in fate
Life wouldn't be unsure
No need for any risk to take
And even magic wouldn't be my cure

Unreachable
I just will never stop explaining
And I know I can be hard to understand
But when everybody looks..
..Like I'm talking Chinese
I'm dying for you to have a seat
I know I'll never stop complaining
Cause the world can be a jail when you try to live
But when everybody hides..
.. in their own world of lies
You will always stay.. You will always stay..
I look at you and I see a child
Fighting tears with both eyes
Sometimes I'm out of words
But you don't need a single one to read me
With the speed of reflections of light
I just will never stop wondering,
Why nobody sees me like the way you do,
I don't want to be the same..
.. but why would anybody care
You're the only one who isn't sleeping..
You stare at me and when you try to reach,
I feel your tears in my heart,
I can never run to you,
but you are everywhere around,
For me to speak without..
..using words
You're so unreachable, you travel with the speed of light,
And when I reach out for your hand, the mirror will break...
I'm so unreachable, I'm just too many planets away,
And when you reach out for my hand, the mirror will break...

DJ
You didn't know before, and you sure couldn't hide
Your eyes were filled with, happiness and pride
That expression on your face, was hard for me to forget
A cold fresh tonic, no cigarette...
DJ... We were so close and we didn't conceal
DJ... Now we're so confused, it is surreal..
DJ... If you could see us in each others arms, you'd feel an even stronger flame
DJ... And you will always hear us calling out your name
Dreams frozen into ice, a mix of wine and tears in your glass,
You were so cold outside, yellow fingertips, smoke and lighter gas.
I could tell from the look in your eyes, but I didn't know what to say,
Cause all the passion of the day before went so far away...
'We know there'll be tomorrow, the same palette but another color scheme,
Where the flame you lit will be the love to melt our dreams'

Why
I believed in your vision of life,
Of how small the world should be.
You were my teacher and I didn't know better,
I was only your perfect me.
I've been feeling so weird when I landed,
Life was so much bigger than what I was taught.
There was endless space... to define myself,
But you were scared to let me go.
I've always been yours and I'll always be.
And I still don't understand your way of seeing me
If you could look through the tears in my eyes,
...And see my pride, would you ask me why?
I let you go, because you lost me
You felt only pain whenever I was proud
We all want to be and we all should be
But seeing that was never ever allowed
Life became my own since yesterday,
Not controlled by your deepest fears
How can you ever, ever really love me?
When you're drowning in your own tears..
If you ever find out, that you're just human after all
Imperfect in everyones eyes, but just you
You need 2 know I see you, for who you are
And then please ask ME, for once please ask ME why...

MartiMedia - Mar T. Duiven, Netherlands
Creating/playing/composing/arranging music has been my passion since I was born ;-) I love singing (in harmonies as well),
play a bit on the guitar, drum a little and play some keys. I've been active in the local (dutch) pop/rock cover scene in bands as a lead singer and rhythm-guitar player. Now I record my work (and covers) on my attic studio at home.
Cheerz! Mar T.
