half 04:11
there's nothing along my way to ease my soul it feels like I've lost the half that made me whole surrender to the pain your love has come too late she whispers in your slumber a song you've never heard before wake up before the summer stay up until you fall in love surrender to the pain your love has come too late there's no one to hold the flame and braise my soul and I'll never be the same now that she's gone on the isle of dreams the sun is coming down and as you're falling asleep in the arms of another girl remember when love did not feel that vain and now it's time to surrender to the pain and so you feel cut in half you lose a part of yourself because there's no doubting that your love has come too late surrender to the pain there's no one else to blame there's none surrender to the pain for all has come too late you've only got yourself to blame your love has come too late

savage love 04:06
look into my eyes I know that you have been lying and then a moment opens a tear in time wipe off your sorrow wear back your beautiful smile oh baby I don't know what's getting inside of me sometimes you were the summer you brought the sun in my life light trapped in raging clouds raining dark circles again tonight you'll be fine if you say you're forever mine my darling, it's a savage love you'll be fine if you say you're forever mine tonight babe, that you'll always love me you'll be fine if you say you're forever mine come on babe, make me feel your love yeah, we'll be fine if you say you're forever mine my darling, it's a savage love

like a woman 03:35
nothing is sacred anymore you're lighting the flame to burn the lore and make me come alive a feeling that shakes me to the core what no one has made me feel before to make me come alive and angels fall from the sky as our senses unite turn the world around I'm feeling like a woman bring fire to those who claim they know and crave to dictate what's right or wrong you make me come alive there's no turning back from where we go you're stepping the pedal on the floor to make me come alive and walls fall down inside and as icons ignite bring it all down I'm feeling like a woman all it takes for somebody to be saved is to choose their own salvation I bring myself to you tonight and I set all lies aside I am here for the ride I'm feeling like a woman
4.
a storm is falling upon us I wanted more I can tell to love you again and I wanted my heart to shiver before you and I was sorry that it wasn't the same how depraved of you always trying to have me right where you want me and was it love for you? or was it all to hear you say that you loved me? singing that's when we're threw that's all I can take that's where we fall to the same old mistakes that's how we're fooled by love, I know it we've put ourselves back on the roads to nowhere I say the weight on our shoulders is more we can bear and is it clear enough to you? the roads we're walking on do not lead nowhere and now it's time to let the storm come through and blow away the promises that we've broken and so I say it that's when we're threw that's all I can take that's how we prove that all was in vain that's how we're fooled by love, I know it and I find myself back on the roads to nowhere

sirens 06:04
I know it's taking a toll calling my name it's echoing throws me a bone to chew on and takes me by my hand says you'll never be alone feels so safe so warm inside these walls and promises to always pick me up when I fall my soul is forever at home start a fire to burn down the lies oh, you're such a lovely man just ask them what you wish for it sings through the night it brings into my arms that which I crave for too long I've been lost inside this world got sucked inside its hole I long to see it all burn down I wish you to know that all I believe in is really just lying here before me she'll never believe what you say I love how you don't understand what's broken can't be whole again too late to atone for all the lost time it's so late always a part of me I can't let go it's taking over me I will never let go my soul is forever at home
6.
I've sent away angels that came cared not to fall over affection to make a name for oneself, mate kill everyone, they said, that ever loved you they hold you back from your fate I can feel the reason why you're tossing and why you're turning tonight I can feel the reason why you're holding on a burnt hope tonight no one to blame there's nothing to gain you have to feed the fire that is hidden inside you you need to swallow the pain and take a step towards fame trust when we say "they will always love you" look now where all has led me to trade love for lust bitten by mouths and stung by tongues what a way to go down I can feel the reason why you're calling in the middle of the night and I can feel the reason why you're sharpening the blade tonight no one to blame it's so hard to tame the void that grows inside cold steel that cuts through it's so much the pain I guess it is all part of the game but please remember I've always loved you
7.
look how they're gathering under the fading moon they said that time was able to sow the wound what I can never understand how all this love faded and everything we shared oh, how it comes like a waterfall down my cup of sorrow for the love I failed I'm sleeping with ghosts tonight they come to me with their arms wide open and there embrace is caving me in their clothes are made of dreams that have been broken and of what it would have been oh, I will never understand how all the flame withered and all the tears you shed oh, how they turn into rain into a waterfall into a tidal wave now as I drown in pain and sleeping with ghosts tonight the night is moving and closing down on me and my soul is crying for breaking out but there is no solace left for me
8.
I'm caught anew this frame of gloom waiting for a chance to break the circle a guillotine a photograph of the light that used to grace my room from the top of the mountain there is no way but going down consumed by sex a rush of tears a song before the curtains fall my soul's aflame I am so tired and feel ashamed I am here to say I'm lost in disarray only your love can help me find my way the floors are sucking me in I am a devil in despair without you here to follow into the night I slowly come undone on hands and knees I crawl no one's there to catch my fall my soul's aflame I feel without your love I'm fading my soul's aflame and I can't brave another day I'm here to say I'm lost in disarray help me fine my way
9.
so bright under the light of the moon and dressed in satin she walks the night like she owns the whole world on her step she's spreading silence as if she knows that they talk about her she's got to be mine listen kid, don't get your hopes too high she'll never play your way words they said are spinning in my mind she'll never play your way I love you lady of the night let me in your heart her eyes are shining like candles in the dark as her hips are sliding from side to side and I know that she's got to be my girl sorry son, you get your hopes too high she'll never play your way she only plays one way how I love you lady of the night what pain you hold inside? she looks me in the eyes a kiss as hard as a threat she shares with me a sip of the poison that makes people forget she says "leave the past behind" yeah, I want to leave it in the dark and I hear her say the words now be with me tonight yeah, I hear her say now I love you take me to the stars
10.
I watch the rising sun breaking the night and it reminds me of all those great attempts to rise above and pull myself back to the light you always were so strong and every hardship became another stone on the mountain you built to climb upon and raise your arms and touch the sky sunrise for the broken and I've been wondering since you went away aimless and trying to cope with that sense of emptiness that grows in this emptiness I drown I surely don't want want to let you down I watch the rising sun breaking the night and it reminds me of how you never gave up any hope on me I need you now and until the break of dawn you'd follow me down so brace for the fall I am trying to stay afloat for just another day I need you now be with me stay with me I need you by my side I long to meet the end but I won't let you down no, I won't let you down

about

At its core, With Ghosts Tonight is an album about regret. A collection of songs made over sleepless nights haunted by some of my darkest thoughts and memories.

Musically, the styles in the album (like in all of my works) may vary. What stays consistent though is the emotional theme of its stories. The protagonists struggle with glooming guilt for the lives they have led, the mistakes they have made, the loves they have failed. And while some are strong enough to pull themselves back to the light, others stumble under the weight of it all.

The process of making this album was not always easy. For as simple as it may be to spill my own guts, I figured that what is worse than dealing with my own personal demons is dealing with the ones I have to invent.

If you get disheartened by all this, please fear not. For demons and ghosts are repelled by melody. And I assure you that I have cast enough of it to keep even the most dreadful ones at bay and make for a rewarding listening. After all, hope is also a curse of mine.
