Phony

(Howard Aronson)

This is about a relationship that I had when I was 25. I was so infatuated with this woman that I let a lot of things slide. I knew she was disingenuous, selfish and just really a taker. When I turned 25, I thought it was a pretty big birthday for me being that i was a quarter century old. But did she remember, absolutely not. If I remember right, and yeah it was a long time ago, she wanted me to do something for her that was just like so unbelievable. She had no clue that it was my day, and wanted to focus to be on her. I think it was something to do with going out to eat and I had a restaurant that I wanted to go to that was one of my favorites and she was emphatic about not wanting to go there and didn't like the place etc etc. Girl was stuck in her own world, and when I realized how phony she was I just pretty much ended it.

You didn't remember me On my 25th birthday And something told Me You wouldn't anyway Just a selfish girl Stuck in her own world You don't care about anyone else you don't even care about yourself Girl you're so phony You think you're the only Girl you're so lonely You think you're the only The only One Why did I even try Or bother to cry I believed in you And all you did was lie You have no soul Your heart's a black hole You lack empathy For you I have no sympathy Girl you're so phony You think you're the only Girl you're so lonely You think you're the only The only One So phony So phony So phony Your cell phone Phony

What can you say

By Howard Aronson


This lyric is about when your partner tells you that she doesn't love you anymore. She tells you that she's going in a different direction and that there's somebody else in her life. When that happens, and it's happened to me at that point you feel so alone. At the time it happened to me, I was living in her house, so I have to go find another place to live and at that point I didn't even have a home, and I moved back to my parents house for a little while. I was young in my 30s, but still if I think about it too much it hurts. It's one of those lyrics that a lot of people can relate to, and there's really nothing you can do or nothing you can say hence the name of my lyric called what can you say. It's a rhetorical question.

Hypnotic are the stars

By Howard Aronson


This is a dreamy lyric about my love of the Stars. When I was a kid I used to love going to the planetarium to see all the constellations. I believe that if you look up into the sky at night time and just close your eyes and then open them again they'll be a fantastic display in front of you. It's one that you could throw up your dreams to, as they say wish upon a Star. I daydreamed at night and during the day, and I most prefer the night time. When the stars are out, something magical just seems to come over me. When I'm up in the mountains I try to find the darkest place I can at night to watch the shooting stars, in the satellites go by to me the constellations amongst the Stars are the most incredible thing. This universe that we live in the endless universe is my numbing

When things get rough

By Howard Aronson


This lyric is about the trials and tribulations of marriage, and getting through the rough spots and staying together. It's a bend but don't break mentality. It's truly what a marriage should be like, for that matter any relationship. They're always going to be ups and downs but if there's a true love no matter if it's a friendship marriage girlfriend boyfriend situation if there's a true love you'll work things out most of the time. And it doesn't matter what anybody else is saying. They should just be concerned with their own lives and take a look in the mirror. Usually when that happens those people have many more problems than you do. So when things get rough, as they say, the tough get going.

You can be

By Howard Aronson


This is a quirky little lyric, with some humor to it, and just written they very rhythmic way it's things you can be both positive and negative, and the same and opposite. I don't really know how I thought of it, just kind of evolved from one line to the next.
