⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING — SONG LIST NINE (9) — BETWEEN US AND LOVE Lead Rating: PG | GX Points: 15 | 12 Tracks This collection contains emotionally potent content. While wrapped in poetic structure and accessible imagery, these songs deal directly with the hollow spaces between human connection, spiritual absence, and emotional entrapment. Beneath the acoustic warmth and lyrical subtlety, there's an undercurrent of quiet devastation. THEMES AND POTENTIAL TRIGGERS: - Emotional neglect, marital collapse, and years of repressed resentment - Alcoholism, addiction, and dissociation within domestic settings - Long-term loneliness and the false comfort of spiritual platitudes - Quiet suicidal ideation masked as poetic detachment - Subtle religious trauma, disillusionment with organized belief systems - Estrangement from one's homeland, one's partner, and ultimately oneself - Grief, abandonment, and the lingering scent of someone who stopped loving you - The conflict between creative expression and real-world decay - Identity fragmentation, fractured dreams, and futile prayer - The ache of needing something that has already decided not to need you back NOTABLE CONTENT NOTES: There's no graphic violence or sexual explicitness here — but this set is dangerously soft. If you've ever wept at a doorway after someone left you for the last time, if you've ever prayed with no belief left in your mouth, if you've ever stared at your own reflection and didn't recognize who stuck around... this album might cut deeper than you expect. Listener discretion is advised. Especially if you've been holding it together too long. You won't find salvation here. Just the truth.

Rocking the World — by Lai Youttitham & Tom Jensen (1) FOURTH CHAKRA by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen It is evening back where I came from But it is early in the morning here As I am caught between two worlds On two sides of the ocean to be clear The only life I ever knew Was what I left far away and behind And since then the change in me Transcends both place and time The wisdom I have gained and gathered Which I shall now share with you... Is that your heart must lead the way In all you are, where you go and what you do Sure, logic has its purpose Common sense is always in demand So many feelings and emotions Will lead you to certain paths and plans As many signs they shall try to tell you Both who you are and where to go That's when I just close my eyes Pause and take a deep, long sigh... As I pack my clothes I know: Home is where the heart is No matter where you started So pay no attention to your origins If and when it is time to begin again Close the door on the past Close the door on the past Choose to open up a new window If it lets the light of love in As family is as family does For sometimes strangers gain your trust Believe in that and believe in them So just pack your clothes and go Believe in that and believe in them So just pack your clothes and go (2) COLOR OF LOVE by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen A girl who was quite dear to me Once asked me what was... the color of love I responded that for her it was Whatever color... it appeared to be It could be as white as the wings of a dove Or the North Star and its light... That she can now see shining bright above The true answer cannot be found by the eyes Only discovered by one's feelings inside Because we know colors can often disguise As surely white is not always so saintly purified The proof of love which you seek Can only be found in the truth that I speak In saying that the heart never lies For all these words All these colors and these shapes Only act as distortions And distractions from what's inside... The fire that burns alive Be it learned or innate A girl who was quite dear to me Once asked me what was... the color of love I responded that For her it was Whatever color... it appeared to be Or perhaps it's not even a color You're thinking of... (3) PRAYER FOR LIFE'S MEANING by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen The faces of God for He has not just one Can be seen in waterfalls and the summer sun In laughing children and a passing cloud He can be there, too… it is allowed His hand wipes the tears that widows weep He rocks your loved one until they fall asleep To each he's different yet the same to all You need no phone to hear his call In family and friends He is in them, too I see him in the eyes belonging to you For religion is just a name much like a rose A bud inside with petals closed An epiphany of knowledge of great power Watering us all from seed to flower (4) FLOW by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen Get ready... Let the words flow like a river of love You're all welcome in my boat if you feel free to stand up! Yeah, we'll sure be rocking when we get stuck in the mud If we all paddle together we'll escape the flood The tidal wave that's coming is a metaphor for fear, yeah A simile that once got the best of me - now I can hardly hear, yeah Let the words flow like a river of love You're all welcome in my boat if you feel free to stand up! Yeah, we'll sure be rocking when we get stuck in the mud If we all paddle together we'll escape the flood I listened to that voice inside Saying I can rise above it all, yeah Though very few let their mind try to climb Simply because they're too afraid to fall, yeah Let the words flow like a river of love You're all welcome in my boat if you feel free to stand up! Yeah, we'll sure be rocking when we get stuck in the mud If we all paddle together we'll escape the flood Come on! And what no longer matters is what's in the past What we got right here are two different paths One where we become one And arm-in-arm all join together, yeah Take a look within ourselves And then the world and make it better, yeah Let the words flow like a river of love You're all welcome in my boat if you feel free to stand up! Yeah, we'll sure be rocking when we get stuck in the mud If we all paddle together we'll escape the flood Let the words flow... Let the words flow... Let the words flow... All right (5) THUNDERSTORMS by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen So you never believed that a slow death still means you're dying Yet now you realize when you look into your eyes There is no more denying You thought all was lost when your smile turned to a frown Never thought you'd feel the warmth of the sun Or the heat from a flame of fire With all this dirty rain falling down So your head hangs low yet you say you feel relieved That thunderstorms never last forever As so tightly you hold onto this seed Hoping someday it shall become a flower That'll give you hope amongst the weeds As you find yourself born into a creed Where you're told to follow when they lead Yet their roots remain so shallow And the leaves are showing signs of disease When everything seems barren and hollow You seek to find safety beneath a tree Now you're starting to believe that the candle would burn again As you now realize that this is now and that was then As you simply seek to run for cover To try to stay warm and dry in the rain (6) SURE SHORE by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen I've never treaded water quite like this before I've always been a swimmer With at least one eye to the shore Shore, shore Yet this time the current I find It has carried me away For now I float in the open waters Without a single light house left To guide or help me find my way It's an uneasy feeling... To be out here all alone Such an easy feeling... To finally be So fully (soulfully) free To drift...To wallow...To roam (mad laughing) Sure, sometimes I don't mind rolling with the tide Other times I don't mind leaving it all behind (leaving it all behind) Yet when the night air chills or my arms and legs grow tired I am willing to give in to the more tender side of life And the most basic of human desires: I long to see a candle in the window Take in the soft glow of a freshly stoked fire A new spark brings new life A fresh face like bright lights Sure, Sure Sure, Shore Sure, Shore Shore, Shore A ghost town Reborn it thrives As people follow We start changing lives As lives are changed Perceptions are too What started as one Soon grew to two Two to three And three to four When the next person came We'd say: "Sure, there's room for one more..." Sure, there's room for one more (7) GOLDEN ARCHER by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen Now I don't get stressed Yes in fact I feel quite relieved To be able to carry you Now with that weight off my chest That's been pressing down on me For I am the fortunate one Who has seen the light And now I glow inside So I just let the clouds keep rolling by Knowing they'll burn up and haze So I just sit back and relax Growing stronger as I ponder Rather than go wandering or wait For I make the most of my time And I've seen the light And so I glow inside While I just let the clouds keep rolling by I take my arrow and aim at the next big red bulls eye And I will try again if I miss I am what I am I will be what I will be I feel tall when I stand Because my soul Has been set free Now I don't get stressed Yes in fact I feel quite relieved To be able to carry you Now with that weight off my chest pressing down on me For I am the fortunate one Who has seen the light And now I glow inside So I just let the clouds Keep rolling by I let the clouds keep rolling by I let the clouds keep rolling by (8) SUMMER'S THE TIME by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen Summer's the time just to let the sun shine To relax and unwind To be worry free and leave the past behind What do you see up there in the clouds? I see a rocket ship that's never coming down What do you see in the sky? I marvel at the beauty of a blue jay in midflight right before my eyes Summer's the time Grab a friend and come along Forget what went wrong Spend a day filled with laughter and song Tell me how does it feel? Like the troubles of the world Are so far away they're gone? I'm glad you took my advice But what took you so long? Summer's the time To find some peace of mind It's the year's new dawn A time to renew your strength So you can carry on... So come on! So come on... So come on... So come on... So come on... So come on... So come on... So come on... Come on! (9) WITHIN REACH by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen How long have you been sleeping? How long have your eyes been closed? I only drift away when I'm in safekeeping The only time I'll leave myself exposed Do you... Oh, do you love me? Is there anything or anyone above me? Am I within reach of almost all I aspire? Will it be smooth sailing Where the straits were once dire? Do you... Oh, do you need me? Will you take some time Some time to teach me... What I've left to learn — Can we stop playing with fire? Because I'm getting sick and tired of gettin' burned Within reach…Within reach Within reach…Within reach Losing all self-control And not knowing which way to go As I've been learning more about myself I've been yearning for someone else Do you? Love me? Is there anything or anyone above me? Do you... Oh, do you love me? Is there anything or anyone above me? Am I within reach of almost all I aspire? Will it be smooth sailing Where the straits were once dire? Within reach…Within reach (10) SMELL THE FLOWERS by Rebekah Ann Curtis & Tom Jensen Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers For time is so precious after it is gone Why not sit and admire the road you are on? Why not stop and smell a rose? Before you walk along Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers This world is not a race Go ahead and slow down your pace Why not smell the apple trees? Before they lose all of their leaves Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers Why not gaze at the clouds overhead Ever wonder if they are really angels' beds? Why not sit and admire the sunset? Before the sun makes way to the man in the moon instead Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers Feel the cool rain before you run for cover See the spark of lightning Hear the roar of thunder Why not sit puzzled in mystery? Before everything has been discovered Oh Claridalia... stop and smell the flowers Autumn's moon is rising up ahead Our earth and winter's frost will soon be wed Why not stop and smell the flowers Before you have forgotten all that I've said (11) LYRICAL GROOM AND MUSICAL BRIDE by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen Her thoughts hidden within her music His mind occupied by rhyme Alone they've both forsaken So many pleasing times She knew the reason she wasn't happy By herself and guitar by her side Hiding within her music Just as he hid behind his rhyme Lyrical groom…Musical bride An unfulfilled life… An unfulfilled life Lyrical groom…Musical bride An unfulfilled life… An unfulfilled life There she sat in an empty room Far away he did, too Each creating worlds inside their minds Yet each shared in their solitude And then one day he asked her If she would sing and make him a song So that day she read his poem And then started to strum and hum along Lyrical groom…Musical bride An unfulfilled life… An unfulfilled life Lyrical groom…Musical bride An unfulfilled life… An unfulfilled life Now they're only happy being together... This wordsmith husband and his songwriting wife Singing, laughing, dancing Neighbors think what a wonderful life Now they're only happy being together... This wordsmith husband and his songwriting wife Singing, laughing, dancing Neighbors think what a wonderful life Wordsmith husband… Songwriting wife What a wonderful life… A wonderful life Wordsmith husband… Songwriting wife... (12) ROCKING THE WORLD by Lai Youttitham & Tom Jensen Stadium full of screaming teens Hot young things in cut-off jeans You're on the front page of magazines And you find yourself... Driving the media machine A hot shot on the social scene This reality was once just a dream Status whore… such a libertine When you find yourself... in the back seat of limousines Everywhere you go... it always seems as though... Everybody knows your face and name... They call you a rock n' roller Because you're rocking the world You're stopping traffic Without crossing streets Smiling face on everyone you meet Full house with no empty seats People pay you money Just to hear you speak
