I'm Surprised

(Howard Aronson)

I'm just surprised I'm still writing this. For everything I've done in my life that was fucked up, all the drugs I've bought, are the lies I've told, all the people I've heard, I'm still surprised I have friends that love me and care about me. I'm learning to care about myself too

I'm surprised I still have eyes
After all the evil I've seen

I'm surprised I still have hands
After everything I've stolen

I'm surprised I still have a tongue
After all the lie's I've told

I'm surprised I still have feet
After all the miles I've walked

I'm surprised I still have a heart
After all the ones I've broken

I'm surprised I still have money
Despite all the shit I bought

I'm surprised I'm still alive
Despite all I've done to not be

I'm surprised anyone loves me
When I don't love myself

I'm surprised I have friends
When I'm not my own

I'm surprised
I'm surprised
I'm surprised
I'm surprised
I'm surprised
I'm surprised

Problematic

By Howard Aronson

I've always been somebody who wanted to run from my problems. I just put them on a back burner or shelf so to speak, and not deal with them at all. Then I started using drugs to deal with my problems because it helped me forget them, never mind putting them on a shelf. But once I started to face my problems, and get honest with myself about them, I could learn to cope with those issues that I didn't want to deal with.

Bye bye

By Howard Aronson

This tune is about a bad relationship. I had finally had enough, and all I could do was say bye-bye. Yeah she cried a lot, crocodile tears was all they were. She didn't give much, but took everything from me. At the end it was just me giving it away, including my soul. I had to leave to save myself. I had never had a relationship like this before, and I know I will never have one again. I'm sure we all can relate to these types of situations. Hopefully they're just a one and done.

Acid Heart

By Howard Aronson

I've been out with a lot of cold women, but their hearts were like acid. They would pour their heart out to you, on you, and all that brought was pain. I should have known it from the start, and maybe I did, but didn't want to believe it. They took advantage of my kindness, and at times my weakness. These women, and Men are out there. Yes it's not only one-sided here, if you're a woman you'll probably be able to relate to this song. There are so many people who have an acid Heart.

Democracy

By Howard Aronson

These lyrics pretty much say it all, and I don't know if I need 150 characters to say it. All over the world the eyes are in the United States. We have a huge problem in our country, and because of one man, who spread lies, conspiracy theories, hate, and violence, we're on the verge of having a democracy uprooted. Over 200 years ago we fought for that democracy and freedom. This is a good versus evil song, and usually the good always wins. But at this point no one is sure that will happen. What I do know, is what happens in the United States affects the rest of our allies, in the world in general. We are supposed to be the example of how to live freely and fairly. But right now we're not living up to that standard.

Fall hin, steh' auf und mach weiter

By David Bukovic

Im deinem Leben läuft nicht alles wie du es willst. Du musst auch mal vieles einstecken. Die Hauptsache ist, dass du nach jeder Niederlage einfach wieder weitermachst. Wie ein Kind das hinfällt. Es steht wieder auf und macht weiter....

Escape (my reality)

By Annabel Chima

Sometimes one needs to take a break/vacation from life and just simply "escape" to find inner peace. I was inspired by my current situation: I have deleted my Instagram, Twitter and majority of my social media accounts. The lyrics romanticise, fantasise and personify the loneliness of fame. It also speaks of losing (fake) friends in the process of becoming more famous. The vibes/atmosphere of the song are very contemplative and weird. It also has a nostalgic element to it also. Genres: RnB, Pop, Indie/Rock, Hip Hop. The lyrics are best fitted in the aforementioned music genres.
