about
Joakim Lykke is a mature artist who, over the course of his life, got used to a world where the outlook of people around us and the pressure of social media dominates the everyday life.
Joakim thinks things through, and nothing is random - neither in the recorded songs nor the music video for his first single "Born Naked". So when you see Joakim's bare belly skin in the picture, it's because Joakim has the perfectly clear attitude, that we should all dare to be ugly - and give each other the space and the chance to be ugly!, even when life, friends, family or social media forces us to think that we shouldn’t. It is of no use always having to strive for the perfect, in all areas of life. It simply doesn't make sense not to stand by oneself, and that's one of the things that the first single "Born Naked" is all about ...
lyrics
BORN NAKED
Running scared, running wild
Calming down as you smileGoing in, breaking down
Stormin’ out as you frowned
Follow me, I’ll follow you
If you do, I will pull thru
Faceless truth, a faceless light
Going in to win the fight
I don’t know why my heart is, how my heart is (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling, like I’m fallingI don’t know why my heart is, how my heart is (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling, like I’m falling
Growing older every day
Hunting chance, a bird of prey
Breaking down an easy task
When you removed your mask
I don’t know why my heart is, how my heart is (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling, like I’m falling
I don’t know why my heart is, how my heart is (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling, like I’m falling
Born Naked, Still I AmBorn Naked, Still I AmBorn Alone, Still I AmBorn Naked, Here I Am
I don’t know why my heart is, how my heart is (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling, like I’m falling
I don’t know why my heart is, how my heart is (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling, like I’m falling
I don’t know why I’m falling (Falling)
And I don’t know why I’m falling (Falling)
Don’t know why I’m falling (Falling)
I don’t know why I’m falling
