Her Callous Heart

(Brian Hendrix)

A song about a guy who can't get over his former woman. How he feels for her has sort of shaped his life, and he just chalks everything wrong in his life up to her callous heart and her decision to leave. It works from the opposite perspective to, just switching it to "his" callous heart et al.

I drink too much... for my own good 
I'm a little unsteady in temperament
And sleep a little more than I should 
I ain't too much on those sunny days
I kinda like the rain fallin' hard
Lord knows I haven't always been this way
Blame it on her callous heart...

(Chorus) 
Blame it on the one who left me
And never told me why
Blame her for the tears that fall
And stain my cheeks at night
Curse her name to the heavens
For breaking me apart 
But don't blame me for still lovin' her
Blame it on her callous heart

I think too much... and that's a fact
Rememberin' those days where I felt sane 
Losing count of asking for her back 
And it pains me to know some other man
Lies beside her, playing my part
If it's wrong to wish them all the worst
Blame it on her callous heart...

(Chorus) 

(Bridge)
Someday I might be over her
But I know when that sun dawns
The light will remind me of her eyes
And pull me back from movin' on

(Chorus)

None of Their Business

By Brian Hendrix

A lot of us end up falling for someone whose family and friends sort of get in the way. Maybe their parents don't like you, or maybe their friends are set against you and trying to convince the person you're no good. Well, it's none on their business. Always remember that.

Fixer Upper

By Brian Hendrix

This was written as part of a songwriting contest on a songwriting forum. I tossed something together real quick based on the theme, but I really like how this turned out, about a man who was a "fixer upper" but a good woman took care of him.

Even Cowboys Get the Blues

By Brian Hendrix

Hands down, one of the top-3 songs I've ever written. This one just came to me like a shot in the dark while I was lying down in bed. I hurried up and jotted down a rough outline, and then the song just came together of a cowboy who has accepted his fate of being alone and without love, and the realization that his "loneliness" doesn't make him blue. It's actually other things that make him sad.

Jack Daniels and Roses

By Brian Hendrix

This is one my favorites I've written recently. About a guy whose girl is mad at him, but he knows candies and cards and chocolates just won't do. His girl likes whiskey and she likes roses. I think it's written pretty well and the chorus really stands out and pops the way it rhymes and flows.

Alone (I Wish)

By Izzy Douma

In my late Sophomore year of high school, I was forced to move away from the friends that were important to me. After facing the realization that I would be leaving for good, it dawned upon me that I never appreciated those friends enough. I spent my time there dealing with insecurity and fear of getting close to them. "Alone" focuses on my feelings for one friend in particular who I was always too afraid to talk to (mostly because he was popular) and the longing to see him again.

A Zealous Son

By Steven Mailer

Son of exiled kings, he returns to the world to court its damnation! In the ruin of mankind's vanity is his new kingdom born, one of fear and agony. His final dark sacrament to bring his father back into the world, to see what his hate hath sewn.
