Quirky echoes of my childhood, skipping through my brain
Daylight games and midnight books, dancing in the rain
Balancing the odds and ends, where passions entertain
Quirky echoes of my childhood, where dreams and life explain
Reflecting back, I see a trail, a bit eccentric, sure
Chasing melodies, yet fitting in, an artful, awkward tour
Played the games, joined the fun, to blend in with the crew
But come the night, with secret lights, my books and I were true
In the day, I'd jest and play, a social masquerade
In the night, I'd dive in deep, where my real world was made
Quirky echoes of my childhood, skipping through my brain
Daylight games and midnight books, dancing in the rain
Balancing the odds and ends, where passions entertain
Quirky echoes of my childhood, where dreams and life explain
Before I read, I clutched those tomes, tasting knowledge raw
Books were my companions, my silent, secret awe
Studying by moonlight, stealthy scholar's pride
Persistence was my teacher, with passion as my guide
It's hard to trace if these quirks paved my way
But whispers of those nights still guide me today
Quirky echoes of my childhood, skipping through my brain
Daylight games and midnight books, dancing in the rain
Balancing the odds and ends, where passions entertain
Quirky echoes of my childhood, where dreams and life explain
Books and dreams, a blend so quaint
In their pages, no restraint
Burnout faded, love reborn
In the written word, I'm sworn
Quirky echoes of my childhood, skipping through my brain
Daylight games and midnight books, dancing in the rain
Balancing the odds and ends, where passions entertain
Quirky echoes of my childhood, where dreams and life explain
Books and dreams, a blend so quaint
In their pages, no restraint
Burnout faded, love reborn
In the written word, I'm sworn
Quirky echoes of my childhood, skipping through my brain
Daylight games and midnight books, dancing in the rain
Balancing the odds and ends, where passions entertain
Quirky echoes of my childhood, where dreams and life explain
Quirky echoes of my youth, in my heart they gleam
Shaping who I am today, each memory a dream
With every book and every tune, that spark ignites again
Quirky echoes of my childhood, my guide through thick and thin

Quirky Echoes
Barking Beats
"I always felt a little different. But I didn't want anyone to think I was 'weird,' so I played 'normal' by day."
But the night was mine.
Only the heroes in my books and the sounds I listened to under the covers truly understood me.
Two versions of myself - day and night.
Those quiet hours shaped who I am today.
"Quirky Echoes" is a track about the journey of embracing the 'quirky' sides we all carry inside.
"Is this really okay?"
In the moments I felt like breaking, the person I used to be smiles back at me.
