THANK YOU
💫to Yero Richard for going the extra mile on the production of this song. You are a sound WIZARD! Without you, this song wouldn’t have been possible in this way. You edited, produced, and mixed this beast, showing me sonic finesses I could never have dreamt of!! 💫

THANK YOU
✨to Guillermo Klein and Aydin Esen for encouraging and guiding my songwriting attempts during our regular Skype lessons at Jazzcampus Basel. So much respect for these two incredible MAESTROS! ✨

💙 I hope the song reminds you that we always have a choice in love, even if our mind can get very ONE-tracked!💙

lyrics:
Aimless, I walked a lonely way,
rejected in my emptiness.
That day, I learned
she never flew away.
She's a queen of lies.
She's a queen of lies.

My steps they brought me to a railroad track,
everything seemed indifferent to me.
She said she'd leave
and never would be back.
She's a queen of lies.
She's a queen of lies.

Playing a game,
if love gets close,
away she goes,
she's in fear
for her independence.

Those trains were rolling, unstoppable.
For a moment. I stood there hesitating.
It ‘d be so easy
and so despicable.
She's a queen of lies.
She's a queen of lies.

Playing a game,
if love gets close,
away she goes,
she's in fear
for her independence.

She's a queen of my life.
