Chop Down Those Trees

(Brian Hendrix)

A song about encouragement, more than anything. The idea is that there are always going to be things in your way, blocking your path, so when you're in a good enough place in life and able to swing your axe, go on and grab it and chop down those trees in your way.

Breathing is living Living is passing time And time can't be measured, 'cept for broken memories Then upon a day When some dust is settled It comes the time to grab your axe and take a swing (Chorus) Chop down those trees that are in your way Just keep on at it, they'll be gone now any day Then you get to choose your path To go where you need and not look back Go be happy, babe, and go be free Hold your axe with both hands, girl And chop down those trees Nothing is easy And easy does it 'Cause anything done right is hard and so drawn out And the job seems tough That's because it is Work in shifts and spurts 'til enough of them fall down (Chorus) (Bridge) All moments are priceless All moments are brief All moments are blended up 'Tween pain and some relief So... (Chorus)

Every Time I Sit and Write A Song

By Brian Hendrix


A song written about a songwriter who finds that every single song they end up writing, it really just brings up a ton of negative emotions and life experiences. The idea is that these things become the song, and then those feelings go away, but they still come back every time he sits to write a song.

Shadow of Myself

By Brian Hendrix


This song is about someone who's in love with someone else who's already in a relationship. So despite all the times he's daydreamed about being with her, they're still only daydreams. The idea of dancing with his own shadow isn't just literal; it's also metaphorical in the sense that these feelings make him feel like a shadow of his former self.

Maybe Not

By Brian Hendrix


This is a song about Homer Joy - a criminally underrated songwriter in the country-music genre, who wrote the hit song "Streets of Bakersfield," and a whole lot of other songs. Though it's also generally about a man who led a troubled life and tried hard to walk a straight and narrow path. Like so many of us, sometimes he stayed on it, sometimes he veered off.

No is an answer

By Howard Aronson


This is a weird lyric I'm not even sure the real meaning of it. I just know that for so many years I turned to drugs to find peace which is an oxymoron. I never took the word no for an answer in just about everything I did. I only wanted to hear yes, or thought that I could do anything. I realized today that no is an answer, and some things are just out of my reach. I definitely realize today that drugs was not the answer and I should have said no.

Will-O'-the-Wisp

By Melanie Thompson


Happy Halloween. This October has had some very scary days. We have mass shootings. We have war. We have in-fighting amongst the populous. Everyone seems to have a bone to pick. When I was little, I enjoyed Halloween. The costumes. The free candy. The decorations. It was fun. This Halloween not so much. Will-o'-the-Wisp is a deceiver. He is an evil that seems to be everywhere. These lyrics unmask him.
