Song List 6 — Undertows and Afterglows

⚠ TRIGGER WARNING – SONG LIST SIX

This collection centers on departure, hesitation, and emotional fallout. These songs live in liminal spaces: trains pulling away, planes boarding, hearts half-packed, promises already breaking before the goodbye is spoken. Much of the harm here is not explosive — it's slow, deliberate, and quietly rationalized.

Themes and potential triggers include:
Emotional abandonment and unresolved goodbyes
Chronic loneliness and depersonalization (crowds, commutes, anonymity)
Romantic guilt and self-awareness without repair
Breaking someone's heart while convincing yourself it's necessary
Fear of commitment and fear of staying — simultaneously
Moral resignation ("this is just how I am")
Emotional manipulation framed as honesty
Quiet despair, numbness, and internalized shame
Spiritual emptiness and loss of direction
Age gaps, timing misalignment, and love denied by circumstance
The weight of leaving — places, people, versions of yourself
Repetition of harm without cruelty, but without courage either

Several tracks explore men who know they are hurting someone and proceed anyway, not out of malice, but inertia. Others sit with the aftermath — standing on platforms, staring through windows, realizing too late what was left behind.

There is no graphic content here — but the emotional impact is cumulative. This list may be difficult if you are sensitive to:
Being left without closure
Loving someone who chose motion over repair
Relationships where honesty replaces responsibility
Feeling interchangeable, forgotten, or "one more face"
Being promised safety by someone already halfway gone

These songs don't scream. They board quietly, take their seat, and leave without looking back. Listener discretion is advised.

(1) Dead Silence

by Justin Osowiecki & Tom Jensen
I'm just another face Here on the train We fade, no names are exchanged On the train So close, so distant Here on the train No words, no words spoken On our train Whistle blows On and off they flow Dead silence all around Empty eyes so cold Dead silence surrounds me Same suitcases, same routine Nothing seems to change Different faces, different names Still nothing changes Dead silence.... It's just another day Here on the train

(2) Now Boarding

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen
Whenever I see a sign That says "now boarding" My heart begins to ache And my body it starts hurting The people have spoken and are speaking: My oars are broken and my boat's leaking Of course the rudder's bent Fallen mast mis-shapen I hold no more reservations 'Bout myself safely escaping I lost the motor...it's a mile back under water Yet the course I steered to here It was completely chartered I'm afraid I've never been good Great or well-led in navigation My nickname at a young age was Captain Head Scratching Hesitation (haha) It's well-earned and much deserved As I waited (waded) in the water Yet never walked the shore That's when I'd go sailing inside my mind As I'd crash into icebergs every single time Sure I break things... But at least they're mine The passengers safely bail I'm the one laying it on the line My name will never be Jonah... Not afraid of being a big white whale Thus here I sit in this boat all alone With no one to share or tell this tale... Whenever I see a sign that says "now boarding" My heart begins to ache and my body it starts hurting Woo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo ooh hoo hoo

(3) Leaving California

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen
This man from California Said son, I've got to warn ya This man from California Said son, I've got to warn ya I've ridden fast cars and even faster girls I mined for diamonds but only got fake pearls I tried to make it on my own But this is a crazy world And there's an X on the map Marking this as the place To find either fame and fortune Or else pain and disgrace Sometimes even both When everything's laid on the line I could rent it or lease it But it could never be mine It'll never be all mine He said he's leaving California Leaving in the morning He told me I should follow He said son, "This is my only warning" Whoo hoo hoo hoo hoo And there's an X on the map Marking this as the place To find either fame and fortune Or else pain and disgrace Sometimes even both When everything's laid on the line I could rent it or lease it But it could never be mine It'll never be all mine... He said he's leaving California Leaving in the morning He told me I should follow He said son, "This is my only warning" And I'm leaving California And I'm leaving California And I'm leaving California Yes, I'm leaving California

(4) Butterfly

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen
You're my butterfly In this cocoon you're encased And I wish for nothing but to release you from this maze And from this place, yeah With all my heart I wish for you to become what you were born to be someday As I wait for you to fly away I'd love to see that day Because you're my butterfly I long to watch you gently glide See you go gracefully floating by It would be no lie that I'd be so mesmerized by Your beauty and your grace That would put such a smile On my face, yeah What else could I say? I'd love to see that day Because you're my butterfly In this cocoon you're encased And I wish for nothing but to release you from this maze and from this place

(5) Nature of Man

by Justin Justice & Tom Jensen
You set her up for a fall And she wasn't ready to be let down You left her feeling so small She felt like she got put down For soon she sees It was never meant to be As so painfully She finds out about your history It's not a name It's not a face It's not a time It's not a place It's just the nature of man She could never understand It's not a game and no one's to blame But she feels the shame and carries the weight It's just the nature of man She could never understand It's just the primal urge It's the way of the earth A thrill can come in many forms And you can get it just about anywhere When you go looking for fun You just might find that fun someone if you really don't care And soon she will see It was never meant to be As so painfully She finds out about your ways and means It's not a name It's not a face It's not a time It's not a place It's just the nature of man She could never understand It's not a game and no one's to blame But she feels the shame and carries the weight It's just the nature of man She could never understand It's just the primal urge It's the way of the earth

(6) Melody of Sorrow

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen
I just found an old poem That I once wrote for you I'll add it to the rest of the pile Of dreams that never came true To be without love is a lonely place But it's not worth waking up With someone in the morning Just to see someone else's face She said either she's too old Or I'm too young When I told her she was the one So our song of love was never sung And now this melody of sorrow I softly hum Age is just a number That should come second to your heart's hunger She told me I was born too late When she asked me about my age I asked her about fate Just snap your fingers Say the word And I'll give my life to you You've seen my eyes and felt my love You know these words I speak are true I've walked a winding road To find the light ahead I've done all that I can do I've offered you my heart Poured my soul on the ground The rest is up to you And if you tell me no I will write once again As I will be happy if you just be my friend Captured in rhyme your memory will live on As you will be remembered long after you're gone With or without you I will have to be strong If it is not meant to be This will just be a song And now this melody of sorrow I softly hum

(7) Come For a Ride

by Bryan Magsayo & Tom Jensen
Hey baby, Come for a ride and I'll take you home But then I'll have to leave you on your own I can never be the one for you Sometime, somewhere you'll see it too I tried to stay as long as I can But you'll find another to be your man Someone to love you like I couldn't do One who brings candy and roses, too Hey baby, Come for a ride and I'll take you home But then I'll have to leave you on your own I can never be the one for you I could never promise my love was true I tried to stay as long as I can But I cannot change the man I am I won't lead you on It's too weary for the heart I should have seen it coming Right from the start Hey baby, Come for a ride and I'll take you home But then I'll have to leave you on your own I can never be the one for you Sometime, somewhere you'll see it too I tried to stay as long as I can You'll find another to be your man Someone to love you like I couldn't do One who brings candy and roses, too Hey baby, Come for a ride and I'll take you home But then I'll have to leave you all alone

(8) Where I Am From

by Klaus Bluetner & Tom Jensen
Twenty years ago... A young mother gave birth to a beautiful baby girl Somewhere down east of San Juan and west of Santo Domingo All of the gold of the world is what she was worth Once born it was said that angels would follow her wherever she would go Together they sailed up the North Atlantic Ocean And far across the Sargasso Sea As the ocean winds were blowing They were blowing straight towards me For a brand new start the sea did part As the angels prayed for her return While sitting in the dark awaiting a change of heart Inside the church the candles still burned When the angels tried to follow They searched for but could not find her At least that is how the story is told On top of Pico Duarte the people still speak Of their great sorrow How great things once were What they once had yet could not hold Someone told me that if you listen by the ocean You can hear the island cry As if reminiscing a final parting Without ever saying goodbye Still others say that when the shores get windy Down along the coast of the West Indies The sky is calling for her to come home It's been said that when the waves begin crashing It is the island's way of asking Why did this magical child ever leave her all alone? Yet where I am from we often say That your loss can be another's gain Here it is sunny while somewhere there is rain Let the winds cry Let the ocean sigh Let the angels fly Let the island say goodbye For they will never have this girl Some may point to me and say I steal Given time their pain will heal Love knows no bounds... Fate became sealed I will always know just how I feel... I wouldn't change it for the world

(9) How Can You

by Bryan Magsayo & Tom Jensen
How can you live with yourself? Do you pretend to be someone else? When you wake up in the morning and you're lying in bed What do you feel, what goes on in your head? Do you bury your conscience down below? Please tell me because I need to know How can you live with yourself? You took my heart in your hands and you tore it in two How can you sleep after the things that you do? I loved you so much and did whatever you asked When you told me you loved me you were wearing a mask How can you live with yourself? Do you pretend to be someone else? Lying in bed your nightgown covered in lace When you told me you were leaving I never saw your face After all we been through you probably never even cried And if you did your tears quickly dried I'll never know because your face you hide With every I love you another lie How can you live with yourself? Do you pretend to be someone else?

(10) Rainy Day Sunshine

by Justin Justice & Tom Jensen
My life it would have been your shrine If my ways had been refined Before I looked into your big brown eyes I never knew I was blind 'Twas you who coulda seen me through Over the only mountain that I'd yet to climb I have only one path to take... Try to walk a straight line this time And it is you I'm still trying to find My rainy day sunshine Without you I may be just fine But with you I'd be so much better It's you, my rainy day sunshine Who's my every day valentine The only one who could ever have changed Both the seasons and the weather I hope I'll be all right in time I'm praying someday I'm gonna find You again and you'll fill all this emptiness inside We'll rebuild this broken mind of mine So now…it's you I am trying to find My rainy day sunshine Without you I may be just fine But with you I'd be so much better Yeah with you I'd be so much better

(11) Breaking Her Heart

by Justin Justice & Tom Jensen
Your heart breaks with every tender touch You think to yourself You don't love her all that much The moon and the stars She'd give them all to you So with a tear in your eye you continue… Skin so soft and light brown hair She stares into your eyes without a single care You have become her shelter from the rain Yet while she's filled with love you're filled with pain... Reality screams into your ear So you try to collect yourself You try and calm your fears How long can you play this game? How much longer can you simply hold your shame? Life is anything but a fairy tale And before you pass sometimes you fail They say it's better to have loved and to have lost Then never have played so we pay the cost Every passing day you sink in sand Becomes even harder when she holds onto your hand You can't be the one who shatters her dreams So you make her believe everything is as it seems It's never easy when the time has come It's never easy but you had your fun Do not feel sorry for what you've done For after the rain soon comes the sun Life is anything but a fairy tale And before you pass sometimes you fail They say it's better to have loved and to have lost Then never have played so we pay the cost

This sixth song list explores themes of emotional turmoil, longing, and personal introspection. It delves into the pain of unfulfilled love, self-doubt, and the complexity of relationships, using vivid imagery.
