Wegbeschreibung / Directions

There is no demo for this song.

Liner Notes

Going back to my roots I start this FAWM with just lyrics. Plus my mic broke down on Friday evening so I am not able to record anything today. Things happen for a reason - that's why I decided to post lyrics only and not to wait till next week. i set these lyrics free for any kind of collab! Maybe I come back and add them to some music but I would be glad, if somebody works with them, too!

About the topic: being confident is an act of rebellion in times where people focus on the bad. It's also an act of self-discipline for somebody like me who struggles with depression in these depressing times. It helps me to get up in the morning, to work, to talk with people, to work with people. Being confident is a political act because it is different vieuw. And it can change something!

Lyrics

Wegbeschreibung

Geh los, wenn der leise Zweifel lauter wird. Durch den Wald der Fragen, am Horizont der Angst wartet der Mut, etwas zu wagen. Etwas, wovon Du nicht weißt, ob Du es kannst!

Geh weiter mit kleinen Schritten. Folge dem Weg, der ohne Schilder ist und tritt sanft auf die alten Fragen - sei Dir sicher, dass sie Dich tragen, solange Dein Herz offen ist!

Wähle den leisesten Weg! Vertrauen macht Dich kühn! Überquere die Brücke aus „Trotzdem“ Halte inne, dann geh durch das Tal, in dem Fehler wie Blumen blühen!

Besteige den Berg aus Unsicherheit! Mutig setze jeden Schritt! Dort, wo Dein Herz langsam schlägt; Dort, wo Dein Atem ruhiger geht; wo Deine Schultern leichter sind - bist Du im Raum der Zuversicht!

Lyrics by Andrea Campanile

Directions

Go forth, when the quiet doubt grows louder. Through the forest of questions, on the horizon of fear, courage awaits, to dare something.

Something you don't know if you can do!

Continue with small steps. Follow the path without signs and tread gently on the old questions - be certain that they will carry you, as long as your heart is open!

Choose the quietest path!

Trust makes you bold!

Cross the bridge of "Nevertheless." Pause, then walk through the valley, where mistakes bloom like flowers!

Climb the mountain of uncertainty!

Take each step bravely!

Where your heart beats slowly; Where your breath becomes calmer; where your shoulders are lighter - you are in the realm of confidence!

Danke, daß hilft im Moment wo wir passen durch eine schwere Zeit mit unserem Haus. Wie sagt man frozen pipes auf Deutsch - gefrorene Rohren???

Oh, das tut mir leid! Ist es so kalt gerade bei euch?! Aber es freut mich, wenn meine Worte Dir helfen! 🤗

As always, poetic and insightful, with some really tasty phrases ("Mistakes bloom like flowers," "the forest of questions"). Can't wait until your new mic arrives!

Go forth, when the quiet doubt grows louder

There is something beautifully evocative about this. When quiet doubt grows louder, then you're going the right way. Lovely work!
