Time Is

(Brian Hendrix)

Was just feeling creative one night in Notepad. The chorus would be the one line between verses. I think it's a decently written song. It's quite descriptive.

Time is a woman, soft and warm And when she leaves, she don't come back Makes you feel loved when she's in the mood Though you can't direct her track She'll hurt you more the longer you stay Try to slow it all down, and she'll still slip away Time is an old beating heart Time is a sunset, makes the sky glow In shades of magenta and orange You can view it from pictures, can't replay the sky You feel it cooling down as you long The night sets in and the clouds turn to gray In a while you can't see what's in front of your face Time is the ember; it fades Time is the ocean, the waves they move Never settle, they ripple and swell Deep or the shallows, the warm and the cold A dichotomy heaven and hell You can't drink it in but you'd think that you could Doesn't belong to you, except for to look Time is the salt in the brine Time is the wind and it blows past you Sometimes you don't notice at all A cooling embrace in your summer of life Chills you to the bone come the fall In the winter it all feels too cold to stand But before you can warm it's blown right on past Time is a dandelion on the breeze Time is a ghost some say don't exist And you can't separate it from space An illusion that keeps us all trapped in its arms Though a reality we all must face It won't wait for you, imagined or real It don't care if you notice nor care how you feel Time is the beginning of light

Lies We Tell Ourselves

By Brian Hendrix

In my Drive folder I have an entire folder titled "Semi," which contains dozens of songs I've half-written over the years. I browsed around through it and finished a couple I added here already. This song just had one line: "Like an old worn book that sits there on the shelf, full of the lies we tell ourselves." I couldn't remember if that was just part of a verse, or the hook and title. So I just wrote around it, a song about some of the lies many of us tell ourselves. Although it sorta just poured onto the page without me paying much attention, that last verse really gets me. "I'll get right to it, when I get a chance. And when the next slow song plays, that's when I'll dance." I guess something was burning in my mind, as that really hits close to home for me - the metaphorical nature of putting something off with a bargain, and then never doing it.

What Gave Her Away

By Brian Hendrix

With all the love songs that have ever been written about the people we love, it's a stretch to imagine that anything's truly original. It might really all just be one giant song, just reworded and reworked every time. Well, if that's the case, here's another version of the "love song" from me, which is pretty catchy. The verse bleeds directly into the chorus, for more of an upbeat track, not a slow ballad. Pronounce "every" as "ev-er-ry" in the chorus and I think you'll be able to pick up what I intended with this one. I think the third verse is the strongest, perhaps of any song I've written for a while now, but it will be X'd out unless someone buys. My suggestion: Pick up a lower license, then come back for the exclusive rights once you see how strong that last verse is.

Call on Wishes

By Brian Hendrix

We live in a world where even those who claim to be charitable can be among the most greedy. As a kid, I remember hearing the story of Robert Johnson, King of the Delta Blues, and how he sold his soul to the Devil at a southern crossroads for fame and fortune. I used to sit around and wonder if other rich and powerful, greedy people made similar deals to step on the rest of us as they climb up the golden ladders of their ivory towers. This song is about the Devil speaking to these people to whom he's given Earthly wealth, before he ultimately collects. Is it all worth it? Well, if you don't have a soul...

I Wanna Do it All

By Brian Hendrix

Just the way we feel sometimes in love. All the lifetime full of things we can do, we're eager to just do them right away. Everyone has likely felt love with that new-penny shine. This is about that. Someone who wants to do it all with the person they love. I really love the way this chorus came out; it's so catchy yet not derivative.

Nichts Besseres

By Jones Lyrics

Á la Feine Sahne Fischfilet ... Eignet sich perfekt für einen deutschen Punkrock Song. Jeder der Feine Sahne Fischfilet kennt weiß ...Achtung politisch ... ;) Der letzte Refrain unterscheidet sich von den ersten beiden, gibt dem Song eine positive Wendung und rundet das ganze Ding ab, um es spannend zu machen ;)

Back on the old Banjo-Lee

By Tony Lawrie

The song is a humorously simple 1-4-5 chord progression in G using Verse Chorous format in the country style song that contrasts the fortunes of an amateur busking banjo player to the great bands, performers, and musicians in history.
