I met this girl down the river 
I saw the sunset in her brown eyes 
She said she´s waiting for her father 
She said they call him the fisherman 

Would you be a fisherman like my father 
Would you be patient until the end 
Would you endure the cold to feed your children
Would you give them a love that never ends

God wants your certainty in him 
All that hard work is just a reason 
If it wasn’t for him
You could get nothing in return 

The more she said the more I learnt
Could she be an angel sent from heaven 
Or a special human with solid faith 
Your life could change in a random place 

I met this girl down the river 
I saw the sunset in her brown eyes 
She said she ´s waiting for her father 
She said they call him the fisherman 

I said can I be your fisherman
I’ll build our house upon the rock 
I’ll fight your fears and earn your love 
You’ll be my star in the sky above 

As we walked through the valley of life 
I learnt how to be her fisherman 
I stumbled down the road 
But I kept pushing until the very end

Her laughs, her cheers, her grace, her face
Will stay engraved upon my heart 
And here I am telling our story 
As I came back down the river all alone 

I met this girl down the river 
I saw the sunset in her brown eyes 
She said she ´s waiting for her father 
She said they call him the fisherman

The right time

By Rihab Forsi

Sometimes it’s just not the right time for a romance to take place, some people split apart, not because of a fight or a big problem, some just lose each other because they haven’t met at the right time, and the question remains, would they pull it off if they met in a different time and different circumstances? Or is it just not meant to be? The song describes the feeling of a broken heart who has been through this situation.

Demons in the night

By Rihab Forsi

We all have been in a dark place, sometimes it takes so long that we think that we belong there. As a matter of fact, darkness and sadness is empowering to devils not humans, so we should extract what empowers us from that darkness and bring ourselves back to light. Being in the right path takes sacrifices, you should stay strong, fight every bad spirit that crosses your way. Life is a battle between good and bad, make sure you stick by the right path.

Heal yourself

By Rihab Forsi

Healing is a one-way process, there is no going back, either you take every step of it, ups and downs, bitter and sweet, There’s no going back. Or you never take that train. We all should understand that healing is not a short or medium-long process. It takes a lot of time, energy, commitment, perseverance and persistence. This is why most of people start their healing and once they get a little better, they think they’ve gone all the way, therefore, they burry a big part of their problems without realizing that. This song is a call to every single person to put more energy and effort in their healing, it gives hope to each one of us to get out of that dark zone they hide in for so long. It’s time to be real!

Thorn in my side

By Howard Aronson

Cleric is about a relationship gone bad. All it's become is painful, and leaving a person feeling foolish and used. They're fed up, with all the lies and deceit, and tell them that It's Time to say goodbye, you can go do this to another guy. When you had enough in a relationship it becomes like a thorn in your side, it's always there pricking you. It makes you insane, and sometimes it makes people want to commit suicide. I had a friend who did that very thing.

Pain Potion

By Yeni Cuff

When you realize that this love brings more pain than pleasure then it is time to walk away. You lose the longer you stay around trying to fix what cannot be fixed. These lyrics capture just that; a sum of all the reasons it is best to walk away especially when the other person enjoys making you bleed out emotionally.
