The first song I ever wrote from A-Z. I was living in Brussels, in my first very own apartment and I was finally starting to overcome the critic inside, thus making room for creativity.

Lyrics
RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW
I left the hurt at home alone
The day I built a house of my own
I left the past behind
The day I freed my mind of my doubts and fears and of the phrase
"I don't want to be alone"
And all I want to be right here right now is who I am
In this room on this hardwood floor
And all I want to be right here right now is who I am
With my instrument and this song
I let everything go
That was holding me back, let it melt like snow
Now watch my spirit soar
To where it can see that I can be me much more
And I can finally be alone
And all I want to be right here right now is who I am
In this room on this hardwood floor
And all I want to be right here right now is who I am
With my instrument and this song
I am alone but I am alive
And I am here now
I am alone but I am alive
And I am here now
And all I want to be right here right now is who I am
In this room on this hardwood floor
And all I want to be right here right now is who I am
With my instrument and this song
That’s been with me all along
That I've started to write a million times before
And it keeps coming back for a million more
THE STORY BEHIND THE SONG
My own personal mantra. In a way inspired by Eckhart Tolle’s “The Power of Now”, a very powerful book though admittedly not always easy to put into practice.

A song about realizing that rock bottom wasn’t rock bottom at all. About dependency and wanting to get out. Hope vs. despair.
