She arrived with an empty suitcase

(Adrian Mallinson)

A young runaway decides to go back home. When she arrives she realises that she should never have left in the first place because all she needs is right there. She has had a rough time on her own and is feeling let down by what she thought would be a new adventure full of possibilities.

She arrived with an empty suitcase With nothing to put inside Six guitar strings but no guitar She’d beed taken for a ride But now she’s found her way back home It took a long time but it’s all so fine She’s been travelling light but it feels so right And without a guitar she can still go far She arrived with an empty suitcase With nothing to put inside Now she’s where she wants to be No need to run and hide The sweet fragrance of vermilion roses Grass so green and the air so clean The birds are singing and the sun is bright No need to think about where she’s been She arrived with an empty suitcase With nothing to put inside

Melomedic

By JOEL


A fast and up beat song with a particularly melodic chorus in which the lyrical I promises a second person to be their cure and to make them lose their worries and doubts. The song is intended as a fast pop song that is intended to put the listener in a good mood.

Mr. Cool

By Andrea Pflüger


Diese Situation kennen wahrscheinlich viele Menschen. Man streitet sich oder trennt sich gar und es fällt einem dann schwer, auf den anderen zuzugehen, sich zu entschuldigen oder miteinander zu reden. Nach außen hin will man sich seine Gefühle/Leiden nicht anmerken lassen, da man Angst hat, dass dies ein Zeichen von Schwäche wäre. Doch oftmals ist es es einfach wert, über seinen Schatten zu springen. Dies gilt auch für die Mrs. Cool.
