I'll Bring a Mirror

(Brian Hendrix)

A song about how a woman is worried about aging, but her man lets her know how gorgeous she still is, and to prove to her, he wants to make her see herself as he sees her.

Well, I was rackin' my brain, 'bout how to show my love
To a girl who owns the world
Maybe chocolates and cards, and rubies and gold
Or the rarest string of pearls 
But, hell, I ain't got the kinda money for that
It's just me, my heartbeat, and my song pad 
So when that special day comes, I know what to do 
I'm gonna sit right down, and show you the truth 

(Chorus)
I'll bring a mirror on your birthday
To show you proof that you don't age 
That smile, those eyes, like an angel's face
Girl, I swear, you're beautiful 
Ignore those candles on your cake
Your kind of perfect just don't fade
You're prettier now, is the only change
And to prove it to you
I'll bring a mirror on your birthday 

I know a humble old boy, from the country like me
Ain't got a shot to impress you much
But if love could be felt from the tip of a finger
I'd blow up the sun with my touch
And maybe you have a taste for material things
And wouldn't be happy with what I could bring 
But I know deep on down, that you'd love it too 
If you saw yourself, the way that I do

(Chorus)

Once Upon Another Lifetime

By Brian Hendrix

This is about a guy who's remembering past days and how he was so in love with a girl, and he thought it was forever. But like most of us find out, "forever" isn't really that long after all, and life goes on.

It Ain't Rained Once

By Brian Hendrix

This is a weird one to explain. There's a guy who's in love with a girl, who doesn't love him back. He thinks that the fact it hasn't rained in a while is a sign that their love is meant to be, but other people are realizing that the entire world is basically ending, and he's aloof to it. In reality, all the signs are pointing and telling him that he's doomed, but he can't see it.

I Won't Bug Ya

No is an answer

By Howard Aronson

This is a weird lyric I'm not even sure the real meaning of it. I just know that for so many years I turned to drugs to find peace which is an oxymoron. I never took the word no for an answer in just about everything I did. I only wanted to hear yes, or thought that I could do anything. I realized today that no is an answer, and some things are just out of my reach. I definitely realize today that drugs was not the answer and I should have said no.

Will-O'-the-Wisp

By Melanie Thompson

Happy Halloween. This October has had some very scary days. We have mass shootings. We have war. We have in-fighting amongst the populous. Everyone seems to have a bone to pick. When I was little, I enjoyed Halloween. The costumes. The free candy. The decorations. It was fun. This Halloween not so much. Will-o'-the-Wisp is a deceiver. He is an evil that seems to be everywhere. These lyrics unmask him.
