Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Some folks hear my tune and their faces light up bright
Others furrow their brows, lost in the night
Each heart's a mirror, reflectin' back
Ten worlds shimmerin', on a different track

Chorus:
Oh, the mirror's song, it sings in you and me
Some see the light, some're waitin' to be free
But every soul's got a spark, inside, burnin' deep
And my music whispers, "Come, journey with me"

Verse 2:
Joy and confusion, dancin' side by side
Ancient wisdom and doubt, they collide
But in every heart, there's wisdom waitin' to shine
Through the melodies and rhythms, we're all intertwined

Chorus:
Oh, the mirror's song, it sings in you and me
Some see the light, some're waitin' to be free
But every soul's got a spark, inside, burnin' deep
And my music whispers, "Come, journey with me"

Bridge:
Through the chords and the silence
We're searchin' for guidance
Each soul's got its own way to see
The tapestry of life and the wisdom in thee
Oh, the whispers of the soul, it’s callin' out to you, 
Are you ready to hear, the wisdom that's true?

Verse 3:
So let the music flow, let it embrace
Echoes of compassion in every space
'Cause in the quiet moments, between you and I
True wisdom resides, where truth never dies

Chorus:
Oh, the mirror's song, it sings in you and me
Some see the light, some're waitin' to be free
But every soul's got a spark, inside, burnin' deep
And my music whispers, "Come, journey with me"

Outro:
'Cause in the quiet moments, between you and I
True wisdom resides, where truth never dies
But every soul's got a spark, burnin' deep inside 
And my music whispers, "Come along for the ride"

The Mirror's Song

Come on cheer up my lads
to glory we steer
and we will add another ship
to this glorious year 

To honour we do call you
as free men, not slaves
For who are as free as us
sons of the waves?
									
Heart of oak are our ships
Heart of oak
Heart of oak
Heart of oak are our men
Heart of oak
Heart of oak									

To our worthy forefathers
let's give them a cheer
To far off lands they didn't know
they courageously steered								
Through oceans unto deserts
for freedom they came
and dying, they bequeathed to us
their freedom and their fame

Heart of oak are our ships
Heart of oak
Heart of oak
Heart of oak are our men
Heart of oak
Heart of oak		

so come on cheer up my boys
to glory we steer
and we will add a pirate ship
to this glorious year 

Heart of oak are our ships
Heart of oak
Heart of oak
Heart of oak are our men
Heart of oak
Heart of oak

Heart of Oak

I Think of You

Song meaning: I wrote decay as a way of saying out loud how lonely I was when experiencing grief. When I lost my friend to suicide, one of the first thoughts was how it could be her - she was so adored and yet must’ve felt so unwanted.

lyrics
VERSE 1
Tiring
Tell me where I’m meant to go All your leaves will ever grow I’ve burnt them all outside Finding
Better ways to let it go Caught you feeling ever low Tell me I’m alright
PRE 1
Showed me you were hurting Slipped through a crowd Said you were a burden
Are you happy now ?
CHORUS 1
Though I’m sure
You know that your adored Why’d you go do that for ? What were you hoping for ? Called you friend Wondering till the end
Were you hiding then ? I’ve cried
Clouds will open up For you love
I’m coming down
VERSE 2
I’m with you
Sacrifice decaying breath
For what might be a lasting test Your life’s worth it all
PRE 2
Showed me you were hurting Slipped through a crowd Said you were a burden
Are you happy now ?
CHORUS 2
Though I’m sure
You know that your adored Why’d you go do that for ? What were you hoping for ? Called you friend Wondering till the end
Were you hiding then ?
I’ve cried
Though I’m sure
You know that your adored Why’d you go do that for ? What were you hoping for ? Called you friend Wondering till the end
Were you hiding then ?
I’ve cried
Clouds will open up
For you love
I’m coming down

Song meaning: This song captures the magic of a golden hour memory. Like catching fireflies in a jar on a summer night, this song is a reminder to find joy in the moment, before it fades away.

Lyrics
Baby, let's take a ride tonight

There's fire in the skies

I've got a gassed-up Toyota

You've got secrets in those eyes


We'll drive until the sunlight fades

And the stars say hello

I'll point out names of constellations

That I don't really know


Oh, we're not getting any younger

Oh, so just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light


I don't need directions babe

Don't matter where we go

Just give me an old and lonely highway

A good song on the radio


They say you don't know what you got

Until it goes away

So let's just memorize this moment

I don't wanna let it fade


Oh, we're not getting any younger

Oh, so just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light


Cause we're not getting any younger

So honey just hold me tonight

1,2,3, take a photograph with me

We ain't got much time

And I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

I don't wanna lose the light

Baby, let's take a ride tonight

There's fire in the skies

I've got a gassed-up Toyota

You've got secrets in those eyes

Lyrics & song meaning in description | Indie Folk Central, discover the best new indie folk: https://ifc.sbmt.to

Song meaning: This song is about internal and external doubts and how they can strain a relationship. It emphasizes the importance of confronting and exposing these ""bugs"" to allow love to truly flourish.

Lyrics
Honey I know they’ve been inside your mind all the negative bugs
Darling look how they crawl, spewing bad advice
Arms are a-bind nikes glued to the floor
Dancing to love songs we barely know
Go on, tell me what they’ve said
There’s only three more weeks of summer Don’t be spending it with him
I’m worried, I’m worried while the sunlight’s peeking through
All I know is I met you smiling I’ve been thinking of the day everyday that goes by no lie
Step by step I’ll be with you darling every 365 days and one day they’ll know, they’ll know
All the bugs in town you know have been nibbling at our homes
They’ve done wrong before, and this time for sure
Living up under earths alibi shine a light on them they turn into mimes
I promise you I swear they’ve been buzzing in your ear
There’s only three more weeks of summer want to spend it running wild
No worries, no worries
Now the moonlights peeking through
All I know is I met you smiling I’ve been thinking of the day everyday that goes by no lie
Step by step I’ll be with you darling every 365 days
And one day they’ll know, they’ll know

Jay Ssandri - Bugs

Song about winning -- teaming up to win in life, a game, marriage, love, partnership

Lyrics:

Verse 1
Sometimes in life we look around and find
There’s something left undone we couldn’t do alone
Here we go again I’m there with you my friend
Let’s start one final push to reach the end

Chorus
I want it. You want it
We’ll become our favorite team
Time to grab the reins and seal the dream
I’m ready. You’re ready
Let’s go out and do this thing
We may never get this chance again
Let’s Win (except 3rd time through sing “again” – then go to outro)

Verse 2
Time and time we’ve shown
We can’t win all alone
As we start this ride
We’re on each other’s side
With every goal we score
We’ll reach for even more
Until we know we’ll take that trophy
Home

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Won’t be easy won’t be fast
But I can see that mountain top where you and I will stand
We’ll stand

Repeat Chorus

Outro
Take my hand my friend
And let’s win

Let's Win

UN ESTATE COSI [deranged]

YESTERDAY

Welcome to the musical world of The William Altig Choir, where ancient wisdom meets contemporary sound.

Inspired by the teachings of the Lotus Sutra and infused with deep spiritual themes, my music blends the rich traditions of blues and folk with modern elements, creating a unique fusion that resonates with both the heart and soul.

I've been captivated by the Lotus Sutra's messages of compassion, wisdom, and transformation since my youth. It's a journey of self-discovery that has found its voice in my music. Each song is a reflection of my own spiritual awakening and a celebration of universal truths.

My style is characterized by emotive storytelling, powerful lyrics, and a commitment to exploring the depths of human experience. Featuring contemplative blues, acoustic slide guitar, saxophone melodies, and the harmonies of a gospel choir, my music reflects a quest for enlightenment and a better understanding of the self.

Join me on this musical journey. Together, we can explore the teachings of the Lotus Sutra, finding solace, hope, and a deeper connection to the world around us.
