Soko Leipzig
01 Sound Track
This track is made for this German TV drama called 'Soko Leipzig'(English title - Leipzig Homicide).
It was on Season 22, Episode 03. around 23 min. Lyrics were written by Kate Northrop.
Compose by George Kochbeck.
​I made the melody and sang with what these masterminds made.
​
This time Kate wrote lyrics first and I put the melody. This is rare to me as normally I make a melody thinking what is the right word for this flow. ​ But it came out perfectly with no doubt.
The story of these lyrics also resonates with me or resonated.
I could feel a helpless feeling.
Which gave me more strength to overcome that feeling.
but next second,
It disappears.
Only this song will grab that feeling. ​
Here are the result and lyrics. Hope you enjoy it.

03 Lyrics
Broken Faith
George Kochbeck, Kate Northrop, Sera Eke
​
Verse 1 0:21
Spring bends close and whispers promise
Smell the blossoms in the air
Then frost returns and lies upon us
I'm numb beyond repair
​
Pre-chorus 1:10
Cuz I lowered my walls
(Lowered my walls)
Let us become-- us
I kept letting them fall
(Letting them fall)
Then you threw away-- trust
​
Chorus 1:44
Broken faith
Pieces fall, scattered through it all
Fall from grace
And there's nothing left to say
Altered shape
Chipped and cracked we can't change it back
Empty space
As I watch you walk away
​
Verse 2 2:14
Thunder rumbles in desert skies
Waitin', waitin' for the rain to come
Clouds pass by and leave me dry
And the hot wind leaves me burning in the sun
​
Pre-chorus 3:01
Cuz I lowered my walls
(Lowered my walls)
Let us become-- us
I kept letting them fall
(Letting them fall)
Then you threw away-- trust
​
Chorus 2x 3:41
Broken faith
Pieces fall, scattered through it all
Fall from grace
And there's nothing left to say
Altered shape
Chipped and cracked, we can't change it back
Empty space
As I watch you walk away
​
Outro 4:28
Broken faith…
Empty space…
Broken…
Empty space…
Broken faith…
Oooo…
