"The Veil of Light" #newsong #recording #lorijeanfinnila #singersongwriter #alternativelifestyle #podcast

 

 I was inspired to this after listening to a meditation from life coach Gabby Bernstein connecting with our angel guides. Let's hope this song reaches others where needed. The song will be in a pending release in the fall once Love the Right Way is approved for July 18, 2023 with Amuse.io. I have to wait a bit after that for a free release to be uploaded.

Lyrics:

Verse

I now write for your love

Your safety

I can’t be any closer to you

Than what’s in my mind

Chorus

I want to veil you

Hold you

Protect you

The beauty you bring to the world

Is so much more 

than I can compare to

Verse

I keep telling myself

As I lift the veil to see the world

To see the sky

Before I run to someone stronger

Chorus

Verse

I’m lost for words

I feel the light

I can see its presence 

Through the corner of my eyes

Bridge

I feel disturbances, forcefulness, rudeness, disrespect

Hiding in the veil of the light

Hold me in

Hold me safe

I’m once again

Hiding in the veil of the light

Chorus

 I now write for your love

Your safety

I can’t be any closer to you

I keep telling myself

As I lift the veil to see the world

To see the sky

Before I run to someone stronger

I’m lost for words

I feel the light

I can see its presence 

Through the corner of my eyes

I feel disturbances, forcefulness, rudeness, disrespect

Hiding in the veil of the light

Hold me in

Hold me safe

I’m once again

Hiding in the veil of the light

Updated lyrics to the song:

"Like a Road Map"

Verse

My marks bother me

My arms on my elbows

Lost their muscle - all I see is bone

My eyes puff and have dark marks

One hangs where 

I was beat up I was thrown

Into the cupboard corner

Doctor sewed me up 

with his eyes looking down

Chorus

Please don’t mind me

From my brain injury

It’s really not that bad

Not compared to 

what’s on my body

like a road map

Verse

I have lumps 

That look like humps

On one inside of my leg

The other one has an indent

They’re all from abuse

My brain doesn’t function as well

From a crack on my skull

It wasn’t enough to look at

I only felt it with my hand mostly 

After I woke up with a cracked eye

On the same side

The pharmacist looked at me to blame

Shamefully shaking his head

Chorus

Verse

I tried to send faxes to the governor 

Of my black and blue arms

Now thinking as I write 

When I can separate 

the timing of the standstill 

In our world

Never heard anything back

But thought to put it out, the word anyway

Maybe I can change it for the rest

Chorus

I’m still here 

I can make change

As long as I can walk 

And talk

For someone else

“Like a Road Map” #newsong #lorijeanfinnila #singersongwriter

 I wish I could walk more today to bring more magic to this writing, but I think I have the idea down. Let’s see what I do with it for the June 16 podcast.

“Like a Road Map”

Verse

I have an ache in my eyes

Bothers me frequently 

My marks bother me

My arms on my elbows

Lost their muscle - all I see is bone

My eyes puff and have dark marks

One hangs where I was beat up

The lid looks not as nice 

As the one on the left

But it’s the one too anyway 

From another abuse when I was thrown

Into the cupboard corner

Doctor sewed me up with his eyes looking down

Chorus

Please don’t mind me

From my brain injury

It’s really not that bad

Not compared to what’s on my body

like a road map

Verse

I have lumps 

That look like humps

On one inside of my leg

The other one has an indent

They’re all from abuse

My brain doesn’t function as well

From a crack on my skull

It wasn’t enough to look at

I only felt it with my hand mostly 

It doesn’t think as well

After I woke up with a cracked eye

On the same side

The pharmacist looked at me to blame

Shamefully shaking his head

Chorus

Verse

I tried to send faxes to the governor 

Of my black and blue arms

Now thinking as I write

When I can separate the timing of the standstill 

In our world

Never heard anything back

But thought to put it out, the word anyway

Maybe I can change it for the rest

I’m still here 

I can make change

As long as I can walk 

And talk

For someone else

Chorus

Updated "I'm Lovely" #newsong #war #doubt #lorijeanfinnila #singersongwriter #podcast #alternativelifestyle

 I updated this song where a lot of people are feeling doubt and wars.

I found a way to make life longer by walking around the park where I live even though at times I struggle physically to walk. This is where this song came from.

"I'm Lovely" song lyrics

Verse

My long dress falls to the ground 

Dragging on the dirt 

I'm still part of the the earth, the land

Grime on my face 

light around me dim, 

Unfortunately dark my every day

For now maybe, just…..

Chorus

Goodbye long hanging ugly limbs 

That almost touch me in my every step 

Even though I'm blowing thru the wind like leaves 

The sun fights it's way to me

Telling me how lovely I am

Verse

You can sit here someone says to me

Sound waves come thru the cars to my ears

Petals on the ground all around in my view 

I can tell by the people around me

there’s no more than this right now

Chorus

Goodbye long hanging ugly limbs 

That almost touch me in my every step 

Even though I'm blowing thru the wind like leaves 

The sun fights it's way thru the trees 

Telling me how lovely I am

Verse

The oak tree twists my mind 

Bright colors take my attention 

Stars sparkle above 

Though I don’t feel it

Bridge 

I walk under a bridge bowing to me 

above my head as I walk thru

dark, Mucky my world

That almost touches me

In my every step

Chorus

Goodbye long hanging ugly limbs 

That almost touch me 

In my every step 

Even though I'm blowing thru 

The wind like leaves 

The sun fights it's way thru the trees 

Telling me how lovely I am

I’m lovely

I’m lovely

ooooooooo

oooooooo

"I'm Fading Away" Lyrics

It's all dying down now

narrowing,

it's all quieting

in my body

Chorus

I'm fading away into obsolescence

into the cosmos

of the totality of me

I ache as I stretch

as far as I can

from this agony within

misery is never too far

Verse

I wake up with the sting again

waiting for tenderness

I find myself on my back

looking up at the ceiling

I feel my body elevating

Chorus

Verse

Is there any stature to this

Am I now prestigious

A different caliber, quality

I've turned into macrocosmos

Bridge

Is there any dignity in this

will I die in grace

mortality

my extinction from annihilation

Chorus

I'm fading away into obsolescence

into the cosmos

of the totality of me

I ache as I stretch

as far as I can

from this agony within

misery is never too far

I’m fading away

ooooooo

repeat
