Alone With Myself is a lyric about feeling comfortable in your own skin, within your thoughts.

Destinations is a mysterious lyric about life, death, consciousness. Open to interpretation.

Time for a hero is a lyric about the world in crisis. Will anyone step forward to save us? Can we do it ourselves, together and strong?

Topic(s): It works in a team/relationship, even if sometimes it looks like giving up on our own selves. Permanent self doubts ending in harmonic optimism. Atmosphere: fast, happy, euphoric, to pogo or dance on, breaking through, pushing forward, eventually scream, loud, wild Genre/Style I was thinking of: Indi-Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Indi-Electronic, Alternative, Alternative Rock Artist(s) I was thinking of: Friska Viljor, Phil Might Leave, Mando Diao, Kings of Leon, Ezra Furman, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Milky Chance... Comments: Typical pop structure. Pre-Chorus & Outro. Outro can come fluently after the chorus & can be repeated multiple times, so that phrases will sound the opposite way around: It works out if we believe, in same rhythms, that we breathe..... So, it can end on "breathe".

This lyric is a dreamy lyric about someone looking for the answer, or the proverbial pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. They had a dream that they were sliding down the rainbow, and in it they hoped that there would be a part of gold at the end of it. But when they woke up, the we're just looking out a window, in a daydream state. They know that there's got to be something out there better than what they're going through. They're hopeful that one day they'll find it, and maybe it'll be at the end of a rainbow.
