2 New Song Releases for Nov. 20, 2024 "I'm Thinking Again" and "8 Hours I Wait" #lorijeanfinnila #songreleases #singer
I have two songs going out through Symphonic Distribution this year around Thanksgiving, Nov. 20, 2024. "I'm Thinking Again" about domestic violence and "8 Hours I Wait" about human trafficking. Please see video clips of these songs here on this blog not too far off from this post.
8 hours I wait
for someone to see me crawl
I want to breathe again
I wait to breathe again
28 more days for this fortune
to take place
that I’m so destined to right now
without anyone
8 hours I wait
for someone to take me from this place
to see where I’ve fallen
where I’ve done no wrong
8 hours I wait
8 hours I wait
for you to take me from this place
so dark so dreary no thought
no choice to this theory
8 I wait
8 hours I wait
for someone to take me from this place
to see where I’ve fallen
where I’ve done no wrong
hours I wait
8 hours I wait
from this place
that took me so far
from this time with lace
that hurt me so badly
29, 28 days more
to this haven supposed brazen
to be brought upon me
8 hours I wait for my fate
to my next place
of no one seeing me for who I am
just a runaway
with no rhyme no reason
is what they tell me I am
So I’ll set here 8 more hours
29 more days then 28 where I’m safe
though the mats are hard
there’s peace and quiet in my mind
8 hours I wait
for someone to take me from this place
to see where I’ve fallen
where I’ve done no wrong
hours I wait
8 hours I wait
for someone to take me from this place
that took me so far
from this time with lace
8 I wait
8 hours I wait
8 hours I wait for someone to take me from this place
“I’m Thinking Again”
Don’t know why I’m thinking
It’s sick if you really think of it
It’s mad for me to stop
And waste so much time
Thinking about you
You left me bruised
You left me torn
I had nowhere to turn
I had nowhere to run
You kept me down
So all alone
I shouldn’t even be
thinking about you
I sit here on the couch
Sad with tears
Alone in my place
I drink when
there’s no reason
I’m all alone in this place
You left me bruised
You left me torn
I had nowhere to turn
I had nowhere to run
I shouldn’t be thinking about you
When I see you
I shouldn't want you
But somehow
my heart aches
Even though you are
standing here right in front of me
Putting me down the same old way
I know pain is only temporary
My heart would heal someday
I just needs to take a chance
Take a breath and walk away
You left me bruised
You left me torn
I had nowhere to turn
I had nowhere to run
You kept me down
So all alone
Maybe I've learned
Finally one more time
Not turn around
When you make you way toward me
I’m thinking again
Again and again and again
I’m thinking again
I’m thinking again
I’m thinking again

Panty Party #newlyrics #lorijeanfinnila #singer #lyrcist
Photo from pexels-carlos-santiago-421908853-19276104. Song in video Putting Up a Brand New Trajectory by Lori Jan Finnila.
Panty Party
Verse
I don’t want to feel bad
From you telling me what to do
Cry from you hitting me
Feeling bad for doing something for me
Chorus
I’d rather be dancing in my panties
With nobody beside me
All alone
It’s my time
It’s a party
Verse
I don’t want to clean for you
I don’t want to cook for you
Wash your clothes, especially you’re underwear
Be your slave like in a Nazi camp
Verse
You can’t touch me if I tell you no
Rape me in that cold day
Take advantage of my tears
Tell me you love me when you don’t
Bridge
I don’t have to fight your wars
Just because I think you should
Half the time you don’t know
What you’re talking about
Chorus
I’d rather be dancing in my panties
With nobody beside me
All alone
It’s my time
It’s a party
Panty party
No men invited

Mom’s Immigrant Abuse #lorijeanfinnila #sexualabuse #westfordma #immigrants

Photo from Women’s Health.gov.
My mother was told while I was tied to our cellar stairs as a toddler that it would be good for her to spend time with, a cop and his friend by them in our small town of Westford, MA in the 60’s. She was an illiterate Portuguese woman with a 4th grade education and with only a green card and sexually abused at 14 in Portugal by her uncle being tied to a chair. Imagine.

Beginning To Feel the Flow Again #lorijeanfinnila #hope #healingjourney #selfphysicaltherapy
You know abuse might have taken away my hands to write long, my body to move as gracefully in my dance, my mind slow to remember at times, but my body is beginning to feel the flow again: there is hope.

This is a book of poetry through domestic violence that shows the difference in meaning as it entwines all abuse. It brings on a new meaning of domestic violence as it has been portrayed in the past and portrayed at all. It brings in new forms of crime used as retaliation to a women making choices on her own and for innocent children that are dragged into it.

Homeless Theme Flowers in the Dark #flowersinthedark #thegreatestgiftofall #lorijeanfinnila #womenauthor #literature
| Photo by Lori Jean Finnila |
I was given the greatest gift of all
I don't smug appearance
Or feel crude or disgust in my mind
When I see a wandering homeless
I was just given the greatest gift of all
Thank you Lord
For taking away my sins
For judging those
Who have less than us
I was just given the greatest gift of all
I can see a human
so great inside
And not fear
with judgment from my soul
I was just given the greatest gift of all
He can walk by me
Sit and eat with me
Live and sleep in my streets
I was just given the greatest gift of all
