Rat race

(Howard Aronson)

This lyric is about the craziness of living in the world today. No one has time for anybody anymore, everybody's just moving at such a fast Pace. Simple pleasures are no longer simple, everything is a fight, it's just an arduous task to get through a day. All the distractions, the traffic on the roads, and the angry people behind the wheel. There's so much distraction, so much temptation, and so much aggravation. It's really hard to take, and it won't be long before the world just blows up totally. There's so many wars and so much hate I'm not sure how much longer this can last.

Life is a rat race I feel like I'm walking in place I want to go here, I want to go there I feel like I'm going nowhere I'm blinded by the Sun I can't take the glare Life is no longer fun And it certainly isn't fair I can't keep pace In life's rat race I don't feel safe Going this way Too much temptation Brings on desperation I need a vacation From a dying Nation The price I pay Makes me sit up straight I don't want to stay In this world today I can't keep pace In life's rat race I don't feel safe Going this way God I pray You help me find another way God I pray You help me find another way I can't keep pace In life's rat race I don't feel safe Going this way

Mountains

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about the mountains. I'm an avid hiker, and a professional mountain guide. Nowhere have I ever found the peace of mind that I do when I go up to the mountains. It's been such a spiritual and ultimate physical experience for me. To become one with nature, just to become one with the Earth. Someday I'm going to live up in the mountains, and get away from all the hustle and bustle. There's just too much bad news, bad politics, and aggravation living in populated areas. The mountains are my home for feeling safe, the mountains are a place where I feel needed, the mountains are placed that gives back, and I can give back to nature as well.

Another shot

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about a relationship that went wrong. At first the person says to the other person please don't ever leave me and they're reassured that they never will. They both believe they'll always be together. But then one day she decides to leave and he's left alone. He can't believe it, and it's beside himself. He loves her so much, and we'll do anything to get her back. All he wants is another shot.

It's all about me

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about the way I used to be when I was younger and when I was using drugs and alcohol. I was so self-centered, narcissistic, it had really no sense of what other people were thinking or feeling. And quite frankly I didn't care. It was a very lonely existence. Today, I've gotten help and understand that it's not all about me. But this lyric is basically focused on the self-centeredness that I showed before I got sober.

Please tell me why

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is a better relationship of deceit, of wonderment, of the u. Why they can never express their feelings and what can they do to open them up. What can they do to show how much they love that person What can they do to get them to talk, it's just the lyric about someone who just is so blocked behind a wall that they put up.

The Passing

By Edward McBride

This is a sad song about a woman, a mother who contracts cancer and declines rapidly. The family is devastated at this turn of events and it is in the hands of her doctors and God. She sees the white light as she is reunited with her parents.

More serious than a hart attack

By Ivan Hart

Written to a girl I have loved since childhood, but we grew up and now she sees me as a brother and not a lover. She tells me all that is happening but laughs every time I propose. This song expresses how I feel, it is a cry for love

The Retrospective

By Ken Latulippe

Feelings about your ex can get pretty complicated. Sometimes, it boils down to the fact that you miss love or the way they loved you, not necessarily that person. Sometimes you have to remind yourself of that.
