All Alone 02:46
I'm feeling blue all the time Can't remember the day I started to feel I'm feeling suicidal all the time Can't remember the day I started to live Come back, I need you so much tonight Come back, I need you so much tonight You know you left me all alone You know that I am all alone And every time my eyes start shining When I see your portrait on the wall I remember that I'm all alone, all alone thanks to you I see you from afar Are you coming home? I think you are Is it a mirage? is it real life? Are you coming home? I think you are You know you left me all alone You know that I am all alone And every time my eyes start shining When I see your portrait on the wall I remember that I'm all alone, all alone thanks to you You're back... But promise me that you won't go Promise me that you won't go away Let me rise up from my bed of roses And take me into your arms Let me rise up from my bed of roses And take me into your

Some Of You 02:41
Waterfall is hypnotizing This time of the year I see no sun rising I just see you in my tears I am lying down I'm showing myself to you So you would show me babe Some of you Some of you Open up to me I can't stand you being so closed, so closed of mind Tell me how you feel I can't stand you being so cold, so cold tonight Tonight, tomorrow, forever Tonight, tomorrow, forever Don't give me excuses I've already heard Let me count the bruises You left me there Here in my heart I am lying down I'm showing myself to you So you would show me babe Some of you Some of you Open up to me I can't stand you being so closed, so closed of mind Tell me how you feel I can't stand you being so cold, so cold tonight Tonight, tomorrow, forever Tonight, tomorrow, forever Tonight, tomorrow, forever Tonight, tomorrow, forever

I know, it was a matter of time The sun goes out The lights fade out It was a matter of time

Woke up I see your silhouette waving goodbye Hang up There is not time to waste why are we talking to each other let's just see. What is the best thing you could be doing right now And why aren't you doing that? Our shadows come together, they bond Why can't our voices bond like they do And if you're insecure, let me get something clear I will never leave you, even If I fear Look at me Your silhouette is paying attention, she stopped waving goodbye Open your eyes and see This is what we build up together, it's not much but it will last What is the best thing you could be doing right now And why aren't you doing that? Our shadows come together, they bond Why can't our voices bond like they do And if you're insecure, let me get something clear I will never leave you, even If I fear What is the best thing you could be doing right now And why aren't you doing that? I am, I'm watching you go But I'll never leave your side

Vitamin 03:07
Your eyes are open wide, tonight You try to get up but you fall So you push me down And I fall, I fall, I fall Down Pink skies fill your soul With excitement for a new life For a new life, for a new life Technicolour people tell you to live your own life Your own life, your own life Don't mess with the others' Don't mess with the others' You talk to me, I ignore you once again But then you tell me not to shake my head And all your sensibilities crush me When I try to get up, when I try to get up I fall down Pink skies fill your soul With excitement for a new life For a new life, for a new life Technicolour people tell you to live your own life Your own life, your own life Don't mess with the others' Don't mess with the others' Your smile's like a vitamin Your eyes keep shining, shining Your voice's like a melody, a melody I repeat it again and again, again and again Again and again, while I fall down Pink skies fill your soul With excitement for a new life For a new life, for a new life Technicolour people tell you to live your own life Your own life, your own life Don't mess with the others' Don't mess with the others' Don't mess with the others' Don't mess with the others'

You lie You lie Don't say you love me I know you're lying Don't say you love me I know you're lying And now you say goodbye And leave me breathless And now you say goodbye And leave me lifeless

Withering 03:06
Don't touch me I'm fragile like a mirrored glass Don't see me Your eyes are sharp like two knives And everyone else is asking What is going on with me And everyone else is asking Except for you Every time I see you up there You look like a mirage, like a mirage Everytime I touch your face It's like a mirror, a reflection that I want to break Like a mirage, like a mirage A reflection that I want to break I'm withering, reflecting every thought in you Leave now, I'm begging you You won't stop me from going down Leave now, I'm begging you Don't say you'll die to keep me safe And everyone else is asking What is going on with me And everyone else is asking Except for you Every time I see you up there You look like a mirage, like a mirage Everytime I touch your face It's like a mirror, a reflection that I want to break Like a mirage, like a mirage A reflection that I want to break I'm withering, reflecting every thought in you Don't touch me Don't touch me Don't touch me Or I'll break down Don't touch me Don't touch me Don't touch me Or I'll break down forever. Every time I see you up there You look like a mirage, like a mirage Everytime I touch your face It's like a mirror, a reflection that I want to break Like a mirage, like a mirage A reflection that I want to break I'm withering, reflecting every thought in you

Demons 03:07
Don't say goodbye when you don't want to I can see you smiling I can see you smiling But I know you don't want to Don't speak I know your problems Don't cry I know you suffer a lot Don't tell I know what you're thinking Don't run There is no time to escape Take another sip of your juice And let catharsis begin I know you need it, I know you need it But you don't ever want to talk about your problems, I don't know why Don't speak I know your problems Don't cry I know you suffer a lot Don't tell I know what you're thinking Don't run There is no time to escape I'll carry you somewhere else if you need it We can go far away if you need it But we'll have to come back You must face your demons We must face your demons Don't speak I know your problems Don't cry I know you suffer a lot Don't tell I know what you're thinking Don't run There is no time to escape Face your demons Face your demons Face your demons

My soul is hurt, and you don't care. My heart is broken, you don't care. The only time we spent alone, Is now in the past, forgotten. Now I'm alone, and you don't care. You don't care.

Games 02:59
I'm tired of following you Following you everywhere you go I'm not made for this I'm just made to love I'm tired of watching you playing all your games Playing little tricks on everyone else And me I won't pretend I love you I know I'm not pretending I don't know why I want you Guess it's another game of yours I need somebody to love And that somebody isn't you. Move your lips and tangle them I know they like it Bat your eyes and tangle them I know they love it I'm tired of watching you playing all your games Playing little tricks on everyone else And me I won't pretend I love you I know I'm not pretending I don't know why I want you Guess it's another game of yours I need somebody to love And that somebody isn't you. I need somebody to love And that somebody isn't you I need somebody to love And that somebody isn't you I need somebody to love And that somebody isn't you

Paradise 03:10
Do not tell me how to feel It's pretty late to do it Do not tell me nothing's real It's really late to do it But I wanna know But I wanna know But I wanna know Either way Don't tell me how to feel Or how to act Don't tell me who to be Or to believe your lies You won with a kiss But that's not gonna work again You won with a kiss But now you're out of luck People's watching over you They care so much, I don't know why It's like you won them with your heart A wink of an eye, a devious smile But I wanna know But I wanna know But I wanna know Either way Don't tell me how to feel Or how to act Don't tell me who to be Or to believe your lies You won with a kiss But that's not gonna work again You won with a kiss But now you're out of luck Is this paradise? I feel your touch Is this paradise? I feel your fake love But I'm not faking who I am or how I feel My wounded soul is tired of you If you don't love me I rather let go Don't tell me how to feel Or how to act Don't tell me who to be Or to believe your lies You won with a kiss But that's not gonna work again You won with a kiss But now you're out of luck Is this paradise? Is this paradise? Is this paradise? Is this paradise? I feel your touch I feel your fake love My wounded soul is tired of you I rather let go

about

This album is about how we can feel alone and hurt sometimes and we search for a safe haven in another person, and the way we love him or her so much that we may even adore that person as our saviour.
It's about how we feel that near that person we're safer, or happier.
How a person, a heart, a soul, can seem like paradise, when maybe it's just a mirage.
"Is This Paradise?" is my debut album, I worked really hard on it and I'm very thrilled for it.
Thanks to all the people that supported me on this journey. I couldn't make it this far if it wasn't for you.
Thanks to all my friends, family, and my significant other. You're the most important beings in my life.
Thanks to love, if it wasn't for its existence, this album wouldn't exist.
Being it good or bad, my experiences in it and in life shaped me and made me who I am now.
I hope you like it.
Is this paradise?
We'll have to find out.

x, Ivo.
