Mirrors & Minds (Devil’s Eye Remix)

(Erika Poling)

So basically, this piece of writing is trying to capture looking at oneself in a mirror, through the mind's eyes, and from another person's point of view. It's still a work in progress. The idea to combine creativity, the laws of physics, and creative writing to express both my right and left side of the brain. It's not an easy thing. Seeing yourself, while being used to 1st and 2nd person perspective writing, and then adding 3rd person perspective lyrics (about yourself; well myself) can get confusing and contradictory. It is a perfect representation of my mirrored self. ?????????

It’s an inverted mirror through my eyes And when I stand parallel in front of mine It becomes clearer that all I see are my flaws magnified ‘Cause all they do is continue to multiply My imperfections are hanging in 3D And they go on to what seems like infinity And there’s a path of eternity full of pupils staring back at me But their nails scratch a deep negativity On the second surface of my glass when their mouths tell me “You’re nothing but something on the outside” But then I saw a girl resting beside what looked like A demonic world and then I realized I’m looking through The mind of my evil twin and the words I heard are locked in ‘Cause I’m locked in the inside and I’m not sure what’s worse Being locked in or locked out? And if I could step inside the silver metal just one time So I could step outside of my dark side and find the side of myself that’s right Just one time I would like to replace the images with a voice of reason And tell my other half the reality of what she should be seeing I’m in my own personal hell And I somehow possessed myself

Count to Ten

By Erika Poling


1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... 10. I have to count to ten before the volcano erupts. Life comes at you fast and stress can build up before you realize you're about to explode. We've all felt overwhelmed before..

Zauberort

By Nadine Schulze


Der Text handelt von einem Zauberort. Ein Ort, an dem man sich rundherum wohlfühlt und den man am liebsten nie wieder verlassen möchte. Sein eigenes kleines Paradies, in dem man alle Sorgen vergisst und wo es einfach wunderschön ist.

A Lot Like Me

By Brian Hendrix


One of those choruses I've had written for a while. Digging through old song files, looking for inspiration, figured I'd finish it. So I wrote three verses and a bridge for it, kept the chorus as-is and built around it. Basically about two firebrand lovers who are compatible in the best--and worst--ways. I like it. I think it's clever in places, catchy in others, and strong melodically.
