Kill the Dog (2024 mix) 02:13
lyrics

Noises upstairs Drive me crazy all the time Don’t know what they’re doing But I’m sure that it’s a crime Scraping of the chairs Bouncing on the floor Fighting on the balcony I can’t take it anymore Though I can’t kill them Something must be done It’s going on too long now I’ve been waiting way too long I will put my plan to work I need action now, not talk Each limit has been crossed now It’s time to kill the dog His snoring in the evening Her annoying voice And maybe worst of all Their sorrow bedroom noise Though I can’t kill them Something must be done It’s going on too long now I’ve been waiting way too long I will put my plan to work I need action now, not talk Each limit has been crossed now It’s time to kill the dog Kick it off the stairs Feed it cyanide Poisoned meat perhaps Or maybe I should bite Strangle with its leash Cut it with a knife I don’t really care But it won’t survive I will put my plan to work I need action now, not talk Each limit has been crossed now It’s time to kill the dog

I'm Here in the Fridge (2024 mix) 02:09
lyrics

I’m here in the fridge I’m waiting for you To open the door Please let me out A bottle of milk And a lump cheese Are here in the fridge Together with me You need some distance and some time, that’s fine with me So ‘though it’s not the ideal place for me to be: I’m here in the fridge I’m waiting for you To open the door Please let me out It’s cold in here So cold, cold, cold It’s cold in here The bottle of milk Smells sourly now I need you here To open the door The lump of cheese Is walking away Chasing the mice That won’t stay in here So how much more time do you need to let me out Did you forget about me, do I have to shout? I’m here in the fridge I’m waiting for you To open the door Please let me out It’s cold in here I need you here So cold, cold, cold So cold in here

I Will Never (2024 mix) 02:51
lyrics

It’s dark outside And even darker inside Life’s raining on your parade again And the burden you carry Shows its marks everywhere Sometimes it’s just too hard on your own But I will never let you down I will always be a home And whatever problems you are facing You will never face them on your own ‘Cause I will never let you down I will always be a home And whatever problems you are facing You will never ever face them alone ‘Cause I will never let you down I will always be your home And whatever problems you are facing You will never ever face them alone ‘Cause I will never let you down I will always be your home And whatever problems you are facing You will never again face them alone

Stronger (2024 mix) 03:21

Now the wind is getting stronger Soon the storm it will be here Setting sail now, I am leaving With my destination so unclear Burn my bridges behind me and the harbor too Don’t know where I’m going But I know what I must do Never felt stronger than when I’m down Never felt stronger than when I’m down Never felt stronger than when I’m down Feeling so strong now and yet so down Storm is raging all around me Tidal waves they rave and roar Leaving shore now must be crazy But I just can’t stay here anymore Burn my bridges behind me and the harbor too Don’t know where I’m going But I know what I must do I’m surrounded here by darkness No horizon I can see Is that a light there in the distance? Or is it just my fantasy Burn my bridges behind me and the harbor too Don’t know where I’m going But I know what I must do Never felt stronger than when I’m down Never felt stronger than when I’m down Never felt stronger than when I’m down Feeling so strong now and yet so down Feeling so strong now and yet so down

Yo-Yo Man 03:01
lyrics

I can imagine It’s hard for you too But do you consider When you do what you do You make me go Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, And down & up again Like a yoyo man You pull me closer Then you push me away You’re begging me to leave you While you’re asking me to stay Make me go Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, And down & up again Like a yoyo man You let me dangle, (you let me dangle) you let me twirl (you let me twirl) Every time we’re together My head’s in whirl (my head’s in a whirl) But as I have the same (but as I have the same) effect on you too (effect on you too) It seems for now it’s the only thing to do Solo Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, And down & up again Like a yoyo man When we’re together When we’re apart It doesn’t matter ‘cause It spins just as hard Make me go Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, Up & down, And up & down, And down & up again Like a yoyo man

Take my Hand (2024 mix) 02:51
lyrics

Caught in a storm with no way out No shelter and no place to hide Gotta keep up standing, keep your head up straight Is it the wind that blows a tear in your eye? Is it the wind that blows tears in your eyes? And there is nothing that I can do Except to be with you Except to be with you Take my hand, I got your back We will get through I will stay with you I will stay with you Words become empty when solutions fail When nothing helps, when nothing can be done Gotta keep up standing, keep your head up straight Is it the wind that blows tears in your eyes? Is it the wind that blows a tear in your eye? And there is nothing that I can do Except to be with you Except to be with you Take my hand, I got your back We will get through I will stay with you I will stay with you Too much feelings, too much worries Too much fears you cannot blow away When life’s raising its ugly head again, just know That I will stay And there is nothing that I can do Except to be with you Except to be with you Take my hand, I got your back We will get through I will stay with you I will never leave you

about

In 2021 I released my first songs, which I recorded and produced all by myself. Meanwhile I have learned more on recording and producing and I thought some of those early songs deserved a new version, Hence the title "Growing Up in Public". And I added on previously unreleased song as well - one that was ready, but I forgot to release it...
