My Paper Sky

(Douglas Butler)

An uplifting anthem of escape and imagination with an immediately memorable, chant-like chorus ("This is my paper sky"). The lyric translates the joy of finding peace in a story into a cathartic, high-energy hook. Excellent for Indie Pop, Uplifting Pop/Rock, or Anthemic Festival tracks.

[Verse 1] I slip between the pages like a tide, Ink like stars is pulling me inside. A velvet place, a quiet room to hide— No noise, no weight, just drifting with the tide. [Chorus] (big, chant-like) This is my paper sky— Stories sail, and troubles fly. Lift me up where the world feels light, I’m safe in my paper sky. [Verse 2] There’s a chair beneath a golden beam, It hums my name in the hush of a dream. Clouds mark time in an afternoon spell, Every cover hides a world where wonder dwells. [Chorus] (repeat, with harmonies) This is my paper sky— Stories sail, and troubles fly. Lift me up where the world feels light, I’m safe in my paper sky. [Bridge] (builds, with handclaps / layered voices) Leather spines and whispers old, Folded XXXX XX XXXXXXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXXX X XXXX XX XXX XXXXXXX XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXX XXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX XXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXX XXXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX XXXX XXXXXX XXXXX XXXX XX XX XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXX X XXXXXXXXXXXXX XX XXXXX XXXXXX XX XXXXX XXXX

The Cave

By Douglas Butler


A unique narrative story-song written as a duet between two distinct characters: a wry, world-weary cave guide and a curious, bright-eyed visitor. The lyric is atmospheric and contemplative, exploring themes of time, wonder, and human connection against a backdrop of natural silence. Its simple AAAA chorus is highly memorable, while the dialogue structure is perfect for Indie Folk Duets, Cinematic Ballads, or Musical Theater scenes.

Whiskey Wallowing

By Derek Carter


A confessional and emotionally heavy lyric, “Whiskey Wallowing” follows a broken man hiding behind liquor, small talk, and temporary company while still clinging to the ghost of a past love. It explores the cycle of self-destruction and denial, where every sip is an escape and every distraction is just a reminder of the one he truly misses.

A Vow of Blood and Bone

By Dawn Isbell Wilson


This song is loosely based on the poem Christabel by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. I had so much fun writing "She Walks the Graveyard" that I decided to create one with an even more Gothic theme. I found an old poem which I had, at first, intended to update for modern times but the more I thought about it, the less I wanted to keep the story, let alone modernize it. I love the Gothic theme of the poem, rich with moonlit woods, spectral presences, and ambiguous evil. However, as I started writing it, the more I wanted to twist the tale into something completely different. I hope you enjoy reading these lyrics when we enter into the season of pumpkins, bats, ghosts, and hobgoblins, or just whenever the mood strikes.

tired of pain

By Laura Spendlingwimmer


I wrote this song after I broke up with my ex boyfriend - I was trying so hard on this relationship and I really wanted it to work but somehow I was the only one who was fighting - after the breakup I was so down and sad and heartbroken because I just wanted a love that lasts and that is real and this is what the song is about - I doubted myself being enough

Exit Interview with God

By Dawn Wilson


It has always disturbed me how some parents, children, or friends can calmly accept an idea that their loved ones might burn for an ETERNITY while they walk the streets of gold, playing harps, or whatever. It’s sad that so many millions of people cling to the cruellest, most horrendous god belief because they are afraid of hell. You have to be some kind of monster, yourself, to truly worship a god that would have created eternal torment for finite crimes. Especially, the crime of disbelief. If I actually believed for one moment that…wait, I honestly did believe it. For three years, from the age of 12 to 15, I was tormented by the idea of my family being tortured forever and ever. Their only crime? Disbelief. I was willing to suffer that same fate because the idea of a heaven without them was unthinkable to me. When I left the church, I fully believed I would go to hell and I didn’t care because I was done worshipping a monster.

Afraid of Beauty

By Stefan Timic


A fierce rush of obsession and desire, beauty that overwhelms, breath stolen by attraction, and a mind losing control under the weight of irresistible temptation.
