Draft of song "This Time"

Lyrics:

Verse

Always thinking

Always moving

Trying to create

While running away

Chorus

Too much time sometimes

Not enough at times

Not always the special place

Needed to think

To help bring me to create

Verse

Sometimes I have the thought

The idea I need to create

Don't have the warm spot

To think to put it into words

Too much noise, shouting, conflict

To get anything done

Chorus

I'm always shuffling left and right

It seems

Can't seem to find the right direction

right words, even the emotion gets scrambled 

Verse

Why do I have to feel like this

So many times

When the time should be right

When something comes to my mind

Always dark, scary moments come to light before my eyes

Right when I don't need it most

Chorus

I think I've found the moment 

One more time

The perfect place where I lose my mind

Banging on the walls

Imaginating all

Lost in the darkest and lightest

Places at the same time

Creating magic that's mine

I think I've found the place

Needed for this moment

This space, this time 

needed in my life

Too much time 

Always on my mind

Not enough space to recreate

Dooo doo doo

The end.

Watch for "Worried" coming out April 24th, or so on thereafter, as a remastered copy and 
"Simplicity" some time this month as a remaster as well.

Living In a Pretend World #newsong #unplugged #podcast #alternativelifestyle #singersongwriter #lorijeanfinnila #survivor

I did this song from a stance of standing up to an abuser. I'm sharing my alternative lifestyle focusing on the this theme in this week's podcast.

Lyrics:

Verse

I'm mysterious

Maybe not

What you're looking for, me

What you think I am

You may be sick

Too much 

of what you believe 

to be too big or 

it's just you

Is that too nice to say

Even coming from me

 

Chorus

your world 

it is just as a part of us 

as you

Your world

Your world

 

Verse

Your distaste in life

Or even your choices

Show vulgar acts

Don't touch me 

one more time

Though if I say

It doesn't matter anyway

You think you are it all

But you are just as small

As your beliefs

 

Chorus

your world it is just 

as a part of us 

as you

Your world

Your world

 

Verse

Come here baby

You lost little lamb

I will coat you with sugar

All over and put you to bed

 Bridge

And when you have bad dreams

You will sink into the walls 

you've made for all of us

So don't fear 

 

Your world

Your World

 

Chorus

your world

it is just 

as a part of us 

as you

Your world

Your world

 

Your world

Your world

One Woman

Lyrics:

Verse

I knew one woman 

Her story 

Could be told

From the heart

Another one was

To her son

Though there were two 

They were just as fine as the other

Chorus

One woman 

Was bright and bold

The others would all fall

So faultlessly

Verse

My story was too dark

To be told

Though I was scared

I looked on and listened to others

Chorus

One woman 

Was bright and bold

The others would all fall

So faultlessly

Verse

One had might

You might have seen

One missed her plight 

but perfection to whom she was

was her grandacious  deed

Bridge

The other would trip and fall

And although not her fault

She would have been this way

Anyway.    

 Chorus

One woman 

Was bright and bold

The others would all fall

So faultlessly

Verse

Please listen to me

Try to feed the homeless

And those in need

I'm on a journey

Maybe obnoxiously

But you stayed by my side

For all of it

Chorus

One woman 

Was bright and bold

The others would all fall

So faultlessly

We are one woman

You'll always be to me

One day, one dream 

in my life that will last forever

One woman

As sweet as can be 

you are virtually life forever 

One dream

Life forever

Repeat

This song is about a victim turning it around onto the abuser, whatever that might be......

Don't Breathe: I Want to Control You #lovesong #lorijeanfinnila #femalerockartist

 Don't Breathe: I Want To Control You

I know you like me

But at the same time

I know you're terrified

Don't let me fright you

Don't be afraid if I bite you

I know you're going to love it

Don't move away from me

Just sit tight where I'll be

I'll move into you

Where you won't survive

Don't seem like you're not hear

I can see you're eyes

See right through me

I know that you want me

You can't tell me any more 

And when its over

You'll want to die

in my arms

You'll never want to leave

Your strength lost

will make it worse

You'll sometimes

Wish you never met me

But the misery

Will be worth it

Begging For Your Mind

 Begging For Your Mind

If there's not a storyline 

or a man wanting to be

in our minds 

we can't get into sex.  

A woman thinks 

about every move she'll make 

to a man seeing this

How much I want you to know

My arms trestled over my pillow

My serene face begging your mind

For what leads up to this

Before my face

Where I'm in the place

For your move, your moves

Into me as I beg you to see

I'm waiting for you

My arms trestled over my pillow

For a song 

Leading to this

Begging for your mind

The End

Pleading For Help

 I had felt lonely and desperate to connect physical and emotional abuse to autoimmune diseases. A group I joined, with a doctor in charge, I had been sharing my personal story feeling the connection. I have seen the threads open up since then with the many beautifully shared stories from women to the same connection solidifying my thoughts bringing comfort sealing the statistics. I remember pleading for help when I could feel what the poisons had done to me with a reply 'Why do you want to do something with this' feeling devastation. #autoimmunedisease #abuse #lorijeanfinnila
