Closer to You

(Brian Hendrix)

A fun, relatively short song I wrote about a guy who's not above doing whatever it takes to be with this girl that he met. We have all in life undoubtedly met someone who had this sort of effect on us. I think it came together pretty well.

I remember all the lessons that my daddy taught me And the first nice thing that my mama bought me Said I was a good kid, followed every rule they laid out But the first time I seen ya, nearly lost my mind You're impossible to miss, the way your eyes shine If I have to be bad to get ya girl, then I will, no doubt (Chorus) I ain't above lyin', if you wanna know the truth I'll step right over that line, exactly what I'll do I might even now and then go and break a few rules As long as it gets me closer to you Can't say I've ever really been in trouble before Yes, sir; no, ma'am, and holdin' open those doors A goody two-shoes in his work boots, that I paid for in full But that angel on my shoulder knows that you're so right That he'd let the devil do anything, not thinking twice You'd make a sinner from a saint, pushed into crime by your pull (Chorus) (Bridge) You're the type of girl we just don't see every day You might make a man forget that crime just doesn't pay (Chorus)

Building Blocks of Life

By Brian Hendrix


I couldn't sleep no matter what, and so I had a tune bouncing around in my head that I decided to transform into a song. This poured out of me pretty quickly, like it had been bubbling under the surface for some time. It's pretty self-explanatory, talking about how our pasts shape our futures, and the days will get brighter for us all. I hope that's true at least! This is probably my favorite chorus I ever wrote for a song. It's very poignant.

If You're Ever in Austin

By Brian Hendrix


I'm proud of this one. I really like how it turned out. It's about a guy whose girl left him, and he has a simple message for her. Don't come back! Though switch a few words out, it also fits well from a girl's perspective about a man.

Lyin' to Myself Again

By Brian Hendrix


I woke up this morning with this song in my head and just jotted it down. So it's the newest song I've written. About a guy who was really tore up by his woman leaving him and lies to himself that he's over her, when he's really not. Though it can also work just as well from a female's perspective. Only a simple word needs to be changed in the entire song.

Walked Into a Hurricane

By Brian Hendrix


A story about the age-old love at first sight, though told in a very catchy, country-style lyric that explores a man who falls hard for a girl and leaps right into the relationship, despite what his family and friends think. The way the man describes it is that he walked right into a hurricane. This is a very uptempo, loud song, which would really come to life with someone putting their full set of pipes to it. The chorus really, really rises up in inflection, when it gets to "I say 'you never met this girl, don't try to tell me!!!'" There's a strong emphasis on this song being sung well.

Engel ohne Flügel!

By AQUABA


Jeder braucht einen Engel, auch ohne Flügel, der für einen da ist, dem man blind vertrauen kann, der uns stützt und trägt, der einfach nur die Hand reicht dir sagt, egal was immer auch passiert, ich bin da, davon erzählt der Text.

Connected To The Source

By Neels Brand


Forgive me, I went freeflow, limitations of language and such... a little philosohpy... but so much... i don't know how to drscribe it, but we are all connected to the source somehow... I know I sound crazy when I say things like that, but I'd rather that than not say them at all. Also, there's a hitchiker's guide to the galaxy half mentioned, more like a tribute, but I syraight up mentioned a song that I feel a strong connection too, and also a strong connecrion that EVERYBODY should watch that Youtube song: Kriill - My Eyes Will I Ever

Plastic Faces

By Izzy Douma


Plastic Faces is a rap song about the struggle to live during the current pandemic. It encompasses the fear of going outside and the longing for a better, safer life. After all, who wants to breathe through a mask?
