Metaphor

(Howard Aronson)

a thing regarded as representative or symbolic of something else, especially something abstract. This is a metaphor. It can also be a figure of speech. I believe that death is a metaphor for life. The two are intertwined, or are they one in the same. I guess there's no real definitive answer. Again this song is about someone who probably doesn't regard life as too important and just lives life with abandon. No regard for self, or others for that matter. Just a selfish type of existence

My mind is crazed I'm in a constant Haze I'm just sleepwalking Through the days My brain needs oxygen My body needs rest I just don't think I'm gonna pass the test Is life just a metaphor Is life just a metaphor Just metaphor For death I want to wake up But I'm too afraid I have to lie.... Lie in the bed I made (Pray pray pray) For me today It's so suffocating To keep on suffering Why is my life So fucking smothering My brain needs oxygen My body needs rest I don't think I'm going to pass the test Is life just a metaphor Is life just a metaphor A metaphor For death It's so suffocating To keep on suffering Why is my life So fucking smothering (Pray pray pray) For me today.

Lying While you're smiling

By Howard Aronson

The song you know as most of my songs are a rock ballads maybe some heavy metal maybe some country and blues mixed in there probably more blues and rock than anything. I'm sure that we all know someone who lies to your face and smiles at the same time they're pretty convincing and a lot of times you believe them. They're the ones that stab you in the back, and keep on smiling. I guess I can relate because I was one of those people at one point in my life. When I was an addict, well I still am, but not active in my addiction, I would ask people for things, con people for things most of the time money, and all with a smile on my face. I'd be a great actor if I wanted to put my mind to it. When I moved to Hollywood in 1982 to be a writer and an actor and a comedian, the only person I lied to the most was myself. But there were lots of other people along the way that I fooled. But in the end I was the fool. None of my goals that I set for myself when I moved out there were reached, because of my active addiction. So this song is really about someone who wants told me that I'm the best liar they have ever seen or been around or heard. But I wasn't fooling her and she was the one who really started me on the path of taking a look at myself. Today I don't lie as much, but I will admit that it's tough sometimes not to fall back into the Trap. I do thank God that I'm clean and sober today and I try to be as honest with God as I can be on a daily basis. My advice to anyone who reads this or hopefully wants to buy these lyrics is to be honest with yourself, and say, this is the best goddamn song I've ever read. LOL

Last Dream

By Howard Aronson

This is the song that I would sing if I could right before I die. I think we all want to have a last dream, or maybe when my breathing stops and my heart shuts down, that the cells in my brain are still alive. From what I hear that's the way it is. At that time maybe everything is so intense and that my neurons are firing it's such a crazy pace that I'm there remembering my last dream the dream to end all dreams.

Don't worry about me

By Howard Aronson

This is a song about people who used to worry about me all the time. I was so depressed for so many years, and getting high to self medicate. But now that I've gotten sober, I'm much more positive person, and I understand about acceptance, and giving up my will to always be right. And I just feel like people don't have to worry about me anymore, although I know they probably will.

I'm a lot like you

By Howard Aronson

This is a song about people that have been active in addiction, and then get sober. Instead of trying to compare our differences or think that would different in that I'm not as bad as you, this song really tells the story about how we're really the same we're a lot like each other. And when we can do that, and realize that we can help each other to get by for one day

I Wanna Be Me

By Bogi Taylor

This is a bit more personal lyrics. I think everyone have experienced this at some point in their lives, when no matter how much you want or how hard you try, you just can't be good enough for a person. And if anything happens you will be the one to blame. This lyrics is about ending this kind of relationship.
