Come Across Like a Cowboy

(Brian Hendrix)

Someone with whom I was speaking told me that I can come across a little rough, "like a cowboy," and I had to write that song. I am super excited about how this turned out. It's a really good song. A few notes to anyone who might buy this. It's not going to work in your head unless you get the cadence. "Since I wound up alone" would be two slow syllables: "A-lone." "I don't like this seclusion, baby" - would be a long, drawn out "seclu...sion" "Keeps me whistling time" - the "whistling" is broken down into three slower syllables: whis-ell-en.

I like the rodeo and Stetsons, and blue jeans
And those old western shows
You can find me out ridin' those trails
Since I wound up alone
These old leather boots keep me walkin'
To destinations unknown
I might pull out my guitar and play
And spend my evening at home

(Chorus)
I come across like a cowboy
It's just all those lonesome nights
Have taken their toll, made me feel old
When I'm not even through half my life
I don't like this seclusion, baby
I ain't built for this blue
I come across like a cowboy
But the truth is, I need you

Pretty good with a gun, or drivin' fence posts
Can swing a lasso in full stride
My discontent just to stay by myself
Keeps me whistling time
Too tough for your image to haunt me
'Cept it does every night
I can go into a honky-tonk alone
And then drink the place dry

(Chorus)

Kimberly

I don't know if there are any songs written about a girl named Kimberly. I just got inspired one night I couldn't sleep, and that line was playing in my head: "Oh, Kimberly, I can't believe..." and so I wrote a song.

Right to Remain a Drunk

Just a fun song about a guy who likes to drink, probably a little too much. No real story behind this. Just a drinkin' song I wrote.

Matters of the Heart

By Brian Hendrix

This one just popped into my head while I was trying to get to sleep. It shares a similar title with other songs, but the lyrics here are totally unique. I like the premise of it and how it turned out. Could fit into multiple genres, depending on any type of arrangement one wanted to put to it.

She never plays fair

By Howard Aronson

This lyric could be about a relationship, or just a friendship where the person doesn't care that you're caught in a web so to speak. Time and time again they let you down, but you keep going back for more. They find it amusing that you do, and they turn up the heat and do it even more. Basically they don't care at all, and think it's funny that you try so hard and they have total control over you. This happens all too often in relationship and friendships. That's because people are so consumed with themselves, it's so selfish that they take whatever they can get from a friendship or a relationship and just keep on going without reciprocating.

Rhythms We Breathe

By Jones Lyrics

Topic(s): It works in a team/relationship, even if sometimes it looks like giving up on our own selves. Permanent self doubts ending in harmonic optimism. Atmosphere: fast, happy, euphoric, to pogo or dance on, breaking through, pushing forward, eventually scream, loud, wild Genre/Style I was thinking of: Indi-Pop, Singer/Songwriter, Indi-Electronic, Alternative, Alternative Rock Artist(s) I was thinking of: Friska Viljor, Phil Might Leave, Mando Diao, Kings of Leon, Ezra Furman, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Milky Chance... Comments: Typical pop structure. Pre-Chorus & Outro. Outro can come fluently after the chorus & can be repeated multiple times, so that phrases will sound the opposite way around: It works out if we believe, in same rhythms, that we breathe..... So, it can end on "breathe".
