Graphic Art | The Nasty Side of Life
























Graphic Art | The Nasty Side of Life

























The tremors start, and my hands begin to shake,
A battle I didn’t choose, but it’s mine to face.
The world moves faster, but I can’t keep up,
I’m trying to hold on, but I’m losing touch.
Every step I take feels like I’m sinking deep,
A fight with my own body, can’t find relief.
But I won’t surrender, I won’t give in,
This fight is mine, and I’ll fight till the end.
I want to be still. I want to be free.
I don’t like this thing controlling me.
Not ready for angels.
To fly me high in the sky.
Gotta keep on fighting.
Till the day I die.
I want to be still.
The days grow longer, but I’m standing tall,
Even when the darkness tries to make me fall.
I might stumble, but I’ll rise again,
The warrior inside me will never bend.
The shakes may come, and the pain might stay,
But I won’t let this disease take me away.
In every moment, I’ll find my strength,
I’ll fight for my life, no matter the length.
I want to be still. I want to be free.
I don’t like this thing controlling me.
Not ready for angels.
To fly me high in the sky.
Gotta keep on fighting.
Till the day I die.
I want to be still.
There’s no giving up, though it feels so hard,
I’ll hold on to hope, no matter how scarred.
Through every struggle, through every tear,
I’ll keep on moving forward, with no fear.
I want to be still. I want to be free.
I don’t like this thing controlling me.
Not ready for angels.
To fly me high in the sky.
Gotta keep on fighting.
Till the day I die.
I want to be still.
Still…
I want to be still.
I’ll keep on fighting.
I want to be still.

One of the tracks is mine. It is called „Park You Too“. I was approached by Gerald Ganglbauer to see if I would like to include „Park You Too“ in this album, but there was one condition.
I had to convert the track to a DUET where one person has Parkinsons and the other doesn’t.
Well I knew which one I was, so I needed to find someone that did not have Parkinson’s.
Julia Jockelson came to the rescue and our new version of „Park You Too“ was added to the album called „Gerald Ganglbauer’s Parkinsong Duets“.
If you would like to buy this CD [in the UK], please message me.
Thanks for listening.
