If You Leave Me

(Brian Hendrix)

For the first part of 2021 here, I've really been stuck in a very classic-country phase in my writing. Not intentional; it's just the way they're coming out. So this is one in a style that you might expect to hear on the radio in the '50s. It's basically just a guy's rhetorical note to his woman, reminding her that she loves him and shouldn't leave him.

You'll be cryin', you'll be sad You'll be flyin', fightin' mad You'll be rueing every day, girl If you leave me You'll start wonderin' what went wrong Realize you loved me all along But you can't un-break the teacup If you leave me (Chorus) If you leave me, then goodbye I won't shed a tear I'll help you pack and go And then crack open a cold beer 'Cause I know that you'll be callin' Baby, when those tears start fallin' I'm the best you've ever had, and you'll know that If you leave me You'll be asking family If they've seen me recently Solemnly lookin' out your window If you leave me Hoping that the next car by Might turn and pull into your drive And bring me walkin' through your door If you leave me (Chorus) You might try to heal your heart Love someone else, but then you'll start To fall into little pieces If you leave me 'Cause you know my memory Will haunt your walls, invade your sleep And those peaceful nights won't come 'round If you leave me (Chorus)

It's Not So Bad

By Brian Hendrix


This is definitely more in the vein of a Hank Williams-style country song. It's basically a guy realizing that his broken heart isn't so bad after all. In fact, he might even be better off without that sort of strife in his life.

Callous Heart

By Brian Hendrix


Old-school, traditional country song about a guy who's finding it near impossible to get over a girl who just ran out on him. Probably easy enough to work in reverse too, with a couple of pronoun changes.

Closer to You

By Brian Hendrix


Song about a guy who really wants to be close to a girl he likes, and he's willing to do anything it takes to get him closer. A fun, alliterative, relatively short song, a little uptempo.

God Made the Whiskey

By Brian Hendrix


A simple, fun song about whiskey. It has some obvious religious undertones and it structured around the idea of faith; though that the song is saying "God made the whiskey" is more or less a testament to how good the writer thinks whiskey is and not necessarily literally claiming God made it.

SCUMBAG!

By Karianne Gabaldon


I can’t stand scumbags... can’t we all though? This is for all of the people who have messed with our hearts just for hook ups, or whatever wrong they have done to you.

Ich mach mir Sorgen!

By AQUABA


Das ist ein besinnlicher Text, der auch traurig stimmt, unsere Welt ist nicht mehr was sie war, überall Chaos und Verderben, die Menschen sind aus der Bahn geworfen, der Zug entgleist, wo geht die Reise noch hin?

Dachterasse

By Jones Lyrics


Deutscher Heart-Break-Rnb. Auch wenn die ich Person verlassen wird, steht sie meiner Ansicht nach als starke & einsichtige Person da. Lieder über Trennungen haben das Potenzial, dass sich viele Zuhörer darin wiederfinden und identifizieren können. Persönlich finde ich es wichtig, auch in negativen Gefühlen bzw. Songtexten eine gewisse Art von Optimismus zu vermitteln.
