Helps You Sleep

(Brian Hendrix)

While this story is about a man whose girlfriend did him wrong yet blames him for it, it can go both ways for sure. It doesn't have a gender per se. This is something a lot of couples deal with when they split, in that one likes to turn everyone against the other and carry it in a very vindictive way. The moral of this story is that the guy doesn't care. As long as it helps her sleep.

The curtain fell many acts ago Nobody cried for an encore Midway through the play, we stopped the show And it ain't comin' back for a tour It was hard to end; I found you with him Strange how anywise you put it on me My restlessness comes from you, I guess While wanton minds quickly fade off to sleep (Chorus) So close your eyes Hum lullabies Get snuggled up and breathe in deep Drift into a dream Where you still blame me Just as long as it helps you sleep You stayed away for years and days Hoping I wouldn't speak of the truth My lips wore a seal, fault not revealed Too blind to see what good it could do When you heard my hush, you spoke clear up Every friend turned foe and pitted on me A new lesson learned and a novel burn I pace the floor while you're living a dream (Chorus) Out with a guy, that new penny shine What's out front is better than the rear I've gnawed my tongue 'til the world tastes numb I got a few things bet he'd love to hear But I keep it down; it don't slip out I just walk away, the keeper of peace Not a noble call; just don't care at all I'd rather go and try to get me some sleep (Chorus)

Wasted Time

By Brian Hendrix

This is a catchy little folk song that was inspired by watching my young niece play in the back yard on a bright, hot day this summer. I just kept trying to remember if I actually did remember a time when time didn't feel wasted. I envied her for not knowing about wasted time.

War Paint Wanda

By Brian Hendrix

I sometimes like writing anthem-style songs. This really fits that bill. "War Paint Wanda" is about a tough-as-nails woman from a long time ago who was a legendary warrior and also very mean and tough. This is a fun song to play and sing, and it always gets a cool reaction with people asking if Wanda is based on a real person in history.

One Try

By Brian Hendrix

Just a fun, quick song that illustrates how we all fail in life the first time we try something. It's fine to do that! As the song reminds us, nobody gets it right in one try. I think I bottled things up well enough, though the concept can always be expanded on. Also the chorus is sort of written out phonetically, so you can get an idea of how the song flows.

Music For The Dance

By Brian Hendrix

A classic-style love song that I wrote some time ago. Just now getting around to posting it. It has a lot of personal meaning for me, and maybe this sort of sentiment has personal meaning for a lot of people. It's good from a guy's or girl's perspective. No specific pronouns.

Warte ich umsonst auf Dich?

By AQUABA

Dies ist ein Text, der eine stille Sehnsucht ausdrückt, ob es sich lohnt zu warten, ob die Liebe irgendwann erwidert wird? Oder nur ein Traum ohne Erfüllung bleibt.
