She Wanted To Forget
she wanted to forget all she had seen
the mem�ries wouldn�t go away
she wanted to forget where she had been
erase the path that led astray
to reinterpret what it seemed to mean
to return color to the gray

a distant motion
a childhood dream returning
a secret fantasy
empathic interplay

she wanted to forget all she had known
her thoughts had brought her to this place
she wanted to forget she was alone
no path behind her to retrace
this darkness mocking thoughts that she had grown
her failure reaching saving grace

somewhere a light
somewhere the sunshine falling
melt away darkness
obscuring the view

somewhere a sound
somewhere a voice is calling
calling a name
calling to you

she wants to be aware of what she knows
when outer darkness melts away
regain the innocence that instinct shows
beyond the doubts in light of day
a place beyond this life where wonder grows
into the here & now to stay

a distant motion
a childhood dream returning
a secret fantasy
empathic interplay

Alice Cooper in Wonderfultown said, "I wanted to forget sometbing so I listened to this piece, and apparently it worked because I forget what it is I was trying to forget."

cystem said, "this is a beautifully haunting mix! seriously stellar arrangement, great musicianship, the lyrics and vocals... it all goes together so well! a spectacular Tapegerm debut! welcome and bravo! "

Don Campau said, "Incorporating the classic KC sound with the Germ is a marriage made in synthpop heaven. Ken, you are an american original. "

nickcalvert said, "A sweet track! Good lyrics, vocals aned production. I generally worry about 7 min pop songs but this works really well. More please! :)"

heuristicsinc said, "I really like the use of my loops here; very original. Good downtempo synthpop, or whatever this is :) I like the mood!"

davefuglewicz said, "This is a wonderful mix all around. It\'s darkly beautiful. Welcome to Tapegerm Ken."

Bj�rn Eriksson said, "Really like this track! Nice lyrics, song and music! What more to say? Hmmm... Welcome to Tapegerm!"

buzzsaw said, "And Salieri again curdled up into a bent and twisted posture of envy and resentment as another newcomer was promoted by Emperor Joseph, one Ken Clinger with this masterful construction of vocal against a background sugared. Salieri sought an ally in Orsini-Rosenburg, but he too was captured by the new mix, a condition rapidly spreading. I, too am captured and sing its praise, even in German as the issue was at last settled by Joseph. Supremo, Ken! More, I beg."

ith said, "Nice to hear a tune with vocal among all these instrumentals at Tapegerm. Reminds me of early UK 80:s underground. Good vocal and fine melancholic lyrics. More of these please!"

Mental Anguish said, "Enjoying your debut TG tune, nice to see you here Ken & welcome aboard."
