Classic Songs

Watch the shadows in the mirror close
Whisper tales that no one knows
Ticking clocks with secret codes
Stealing minutes from my soul

Midnight whispers haunt the night
Fingers cold with all their might
Empty rooms and moonlit sights
Time vampires taking bites

They drift right through your hopes and dreams
Silent thieves of whispered schemes
Taking hours it's so obscene
Drinking time just like caffeine

Echoes of a future dim
Soon a dawn that's turning grim
Lost in time’s devouring hymn
Leaving moments ever thin

Haunting laughter fills the air
Grains of sand that lead nowhere
Eyes that gleam with knowing glare
Time vampires everywhere

Stealing seconds with finesse
Leaving lives in quiet distress
Empty clocks and cold regress
Time vampires never rest

Pop X - Time Vampires

You whispered soft secrets in twilight's glow
Underneath the stars where the wild things grow
A laugh escaped your lips like a gentle breeze
Suddenly the world was down on its knees

In a city of lights where hearts looked lost
You taught me love without counting the cost
With curious eyes and a mischievous shrug
You had me at saying we’d eat the bugs

You had me at “Eat The Bugs” my darling dear
In that moment you made it all clear
Life's a crazy ride hold tight the reins
You love like rain that washes the pains

Barefoot and dancing in the golden hour
We bloomed like daisies counting each flower
I caught your whispers soft like butterfly wings
We became poets in the songs we sing

Soft and low your voice feels like home
In this world where we wandered and roamed
Sharing bites of the madness and dreams untamed
Our hearts untethered our spirits unclaimed

Under moonlit skies where shadows waltz
We found a rhythm defying the faults
Together we laugh at the world’s demands
You caught my heart with outstretched hands

You had me at “Eat The Bugs” my darling dear
In that moment you made it all clear
Life's a crazy ride hold tight the reins
You love like rain that washes the pains

Cruella - You Had Me

Wake up in the morning, sun is shining bright
Gotta find the joy in every little sight
Life's got its struggles, highs and lows
But there is beauty hiding where nobody knows
Find the beauty, gonna make it mine

Find the beauty in every moment (ooh-yeah)
Feel the love that's always flowing (oh, flowing)
When life gets tough, just keep on going (keep on going)
Find the beauty, keep on growing (keep on growing)
In every moment, in every moment (oh-oh)

Soaking up the evening, neons shining bright
Gonna find the joy in every single sight
Life's got its issues, right and wrongs
Find the beauty deep inside your heart it's where it belongs
You should find the beauty and make it yours

Find the beauty in every moment (ooh-yeah)
Feel the love that's always flowing (oh, flowing)
When life gets tough, just keep on going (keep on going)

When life gets tough, just keep on going
Find the beauty, keep on growing
In every moment, in every moment

Coachie - Find The Beauty

I've been down this road before, so familiar
But I keep on walkin', hopin' for somethin' new (yeah)
I'm stuck in this pattern, can't seem to break free
But I won't let it define me, it's time to make a move (ooh-yeah)

Insanity is doing the same things every day (every day)
Expecting a different outcome, that's not the way (that's not the way)
Gotta break the cycle, gotta find a brand new start (brand new start)
It's time to take control and listen to your heart (ooh-yeah)

Walking through these streets, shadows all around
Lost in my thoughts, searching for solid ground
But every step I take, I feel a shift inside
A glimmer of hope, a chance to turn the tide (ooh-yeah)

Insanity is doing the same things every day (every day)
Expecting a different outcome, that's not the way (that's not the way)
Gotta break the cycle, gotta find a brand new start (brand new start)
It's time to take control and listen to your heart (ooh-yeah)

So I'll keep on moving, with faith in my stride
No longer confined by the past, no need to hide
With each new sunrise, a fresh opportunity
To rewrite my story, to be who I want to be (ooh-yeah)

Insanity is doing the same things every day (every day)
Expecting a different outcome, that's not the way (that's not the way)
Gotta break the cycle, gotta find a brand new start (brand new start)
It's time to take control and listen to your heart (ooh-yeah)

Insanity is doing the same things every day (every day)
Expecting a different outcome, that's not the way (that's not the way)
Gotta break the cycle, gotta find a brand new start (brand new start)
It's time to take control and listen to your heart (ooh-yeah)

As the stars illuminate the night, I'll keep reaching for the sky
With courage as my compass, I'll spread my wings and fly
No more hesitations, no more doubts in my mind
I'll embrace the unknown, leaving the past behind

Sol Ritmo - Break The Cycle

Got a story to tell
So lend an ear
About a little thing that you can do
Through out the year
It ain't about the money It ain't about fame
It's about changing lives
In a whole new way

So let's pay it forward
Oh yeah
Spread some love
Everywhere
Anywhere
Help somebody
Oh with no regrets
Pay it forward
And watch all the blessings we'll get

We got the power
To make a change
Gotta love one another
Rearrange our days
It starts with a smile
A touch
Or a kind word
Let's spread some joy around the world

So let's pay it forward
Oh yeah
Spread some love
Everywhere
Anywhere
Help somebody
Oh with no regrets
Pay it forward
And watch all the blessings we'll get

Shamrock - Pay It Forward

You showed me the way, you showed me the light
I don’t need your help now, I’m alright
You tried to attack, I tried to defend
There’s no need for you to pretend

Just let me go and you will see
I’ll follow the sun and remain being free
Don’t get in my way cause I’m on my own
I like being alone

You gave me protection, you created a wall
I wanted a friend but that’s all 
You told me to believe in the magic of youth
You took my life from me that’s the truth

So let me go and you will see
I’ll follow the sun and remain being free
Don’t get in my way ‘cause I’m on my own
I like being alone

We started a fight I couldn’t control
I wanted the life that you stole
I tried to believe I wanted so bad 
But now I’m alone and I’m glad

So let me go and you will see
I’ll follow the sun and remain being free
Don’t get in my way ‘cause I’m on my own
I like being alone

You let me go and now you see
I’ve followed the sun and remained being free
Don’t feel bad that I’m on my own
I like being alone

You gave me protection, you created a wall
I wanted a friend but that’s all 
You told me to believe in the magic of youth
You took my life from me that’s the truth

So let me go and you will see
I’ll follow the sun and remain being free
Don’t get in my way ‘cause I’m on my own
I like being alone

You let me go and now you see
I’ve followed the sun and remained being free
Don’t feel bad that I’m on my own
I like being alone

Lyrics written in 1991.

Nancy Chisholm - Being Alone

You walk like the world is your mirror
Full of cracks, but you still have to preen
Wearing pride like it’s fabulous fashion
Tailor-made in your own wildest dream

You speak in prompts and algorithms
As if truth was your birthright
But baby, you’re confused by the spotlight
When you’re behaving differently at night

Oh, Precious, how you shimmer—so loud, so blind, so small
Wrapped in your own reflection
You can’t hear the call
Every step is a sermon
Every word a wall
Keep climbing your tower of nothingness
But it’s a long way down when you have to crawl

Facts tap at your window
But you boarded up the glass
Built a throne on your own nonsense
Then crowned it “truth” with class

You dodge the mirror like they’re bullets
You call ignorance pure grace
But you’re the monarch of wrong answers
Wearing ego on your face

Yeah, Precious, how you glitter—so sharp, so smug, so proud
A symphony of stubbornness
Screamed oh so quiet in a crowd
You often mistake conviction
For knowing what you’re about
Keep shouting at the silence
Maybe it’ll shout back… loud

Oh, you’d rather burn the map
Than admit you lost your way
Waltzing through the echo chamber
Like the world’s your cabaret

Precious, now you’re trembling—so loud, so lost, so still
The hill you died defending
Was just a dumpster fire landfill
Your crown is cracked and plastic
Your kingdom made of “mean.”
But please don’t worry, darling
You’re as precious as little old me

Oh, Precious, how you shimmer—so loud, so blind, so small
Wrapped in your own reflection
Can't you hear the call
Every step is a sermon
Every word a wall
Keep climbing your tower of nothingness
But it’s a long way down when you have to crawl

Nancy Chisholm - Precious

We're all just runnin', but where do we go?
Buildin' our castles on foundations of woe
You say the bottle whispers secrets in the night
But those whispers turn to screams in the cold morning light
And I can feel the weight of a thousand eyes
Lookin' down from billboards in the open skies

Seems we're chasin' dreams that just ain't ours
You tell me tired's the heart that's lyin'
Then you feel that emptiness inside you's cryin'
And I can't see they're sellin' highs
Not the freedom that we're buyin'
I can’t see past the smokescreen lies

We're all just sellin', but what do we own?
Peddling pleasure while our sorrows have grown
You say the screen sells joy in high-def glare
But that joy disappears, just smoke in the air

And I can hear the chains of laughter tight
Clasped around souls in the neon night
Trapped in the grind, dollar signs in our minds
Spinning wheels in a race, just to stay in one line
But the truth, it burns through, in the still of the night
Saying life's more than a chase, more than hustle and strife
Cause we’re hungry for meaning, in this land of the free
But we're fed on illusions, that's the irony

Behind the bar's clink, where our worries all drown
We search for our peace in a pour or a round
You claim every shot can heal the soul's scars
But those bottle-born bandages won't get us far
And I can see the crowd of lost names
Marchin' in rhythm to the TV's game

Nancy Chisholm - Vices (Live)

You'll never see the end to life
You'll never know the pain that becomes your own
You try to do the best you can
Until the day you wake up and you'll find
You could fall from grace any time
And you won't know when it hits you
But when it does

You pick yourself on up
And dust yourself down
Finish what you started
Don't come undone
'Cause when life gets you down
Remember you're the one
To rise above
And finish what you started
Finish what you started

They'll always try to bring you down
They'll make you feel uneasy when you pray
Don't ever turn your back on them
Remember when you hear the words that they say
You could fall from grace any time
And you won't know when it hits you
But when it does

You pick yourself on up
And dust yourself down
Finish what you started
Don't come undone
'Cause when life gets you down
Remember you're the one
To rise above
And finish what you started
Finish what you started
Finish what you started
Finish what you started

'Cause you could fall from grace any time
And you won't know when it hits you
But when it does

You pick yourself on up
And dust yourself down
Finish what you started
Don't come undone
'Cause when life gets you down
Remember you're the one
To rise above

(oh yeah)

You pick yourself on up
And dust yourself down
Finish what you started
Don't come undone

'Cause when life gets you down
Remember you're the one
To rise above

(oh yeah)

Pick yourself on up
And dust yourself down
Finish what you started

Nancy Chisholm - Finish What You Started

It’s a mad world
And I’m a bad girl
I light matches just to watch the flame burn
You calling me reckless
Say you'll have me for breakfast
Sweet chance of that, it's my turn

You got a big mouth
But where’s the follow-through?
You playin' emperor with an invisible gown
This whole world’s just made of smoke and glue
Watch it burn while I wear the crown

If it’s all pretend
And the rules all bend
Then why not break the Matrix instead?

Why can’t we just be crazy happy?
Laugh while the walls collapse around me
Hold your breath and dive into the deep
‘Cause sanity is just a cage I keep

Crazy happy?
Life free from scars and never crappy 
No map, no plan—just stolen time
Crazy happy… a world sublime?

You call it damage
I call it armor
Wore my wounds like fashion trends
Told the priest I kissed the darkness
He said, “Repent.” I said, “Depends.”

This ain’t a phase
It’s a power surge
And I ain’t afraid of the purge
If madness is where freedom lies
Then baby, we should get baptized

If it’s all pretend
And the rules all bend
Then why not break the Matrix instead?

Why can’t we just be crazy happy?
Laugh while the walls collapse around me
Hold your breath and dive into the deep
‘Cause sanity is just a cage I keep

Crazy happy?
Life free from scars and never crappy 
No map, no plan—just stolen time
Crazy happy… a world sublime?

Who gets to say what’s real, huh?
The ones with the meds? 
The ones with the rules?
Maybe we’re not broken
Maybe we’re just fools

If it’s all pretend
And the rules all bend
Then why not break the Matrix instead?

Why can’t we just be crazy happy?
Laugh while the walls collapse around me
Hold your breath and dive into the deep
‘Cause sanity is just a cage I keep

Crazy happy?
Life free from scars and never crappy 
No map, no plan—just stolen time
Crazy happy… a world sublime?

If we’re all insane
In this ancient game
Then let’s make joy our last crusade

Why can’t we just be crazy happy?
Laugh while the walls collapse around me
Hold your breath and dive into the deep
‘Cause sanity is just a cage I keep

Crazy happy?
No cure, no cage, just a pleasant surprise
Just the wild at heart with hungry eyes
Crazy happy…
Outta line—but still divine

Nancy Chisholm - Crazy Happy

Somewhere down past the midnight line…
where the stories got teeth, and the shadows remember your name

She walked through the hollow, barefoot and brave
Storm still echoin’ from the life she couldn’t save
Mama gone silent, wind took her cry
But Hazel got fire, where others just sigh

Oh, South of Midnight, the moon don't lie
The ghosts will find you, but they don't say why
You gotta sing your name through the sorrow and sin
'Cause healing don't start ‘til the weavin’ begin

Haints in the water, haints in the trees
Singin' old lullabies on a bluesy breeze
She thread her pain like thread through a needle
Turned the curse to a chord, made the haunted feel people

Oh, South of Midnight, where the sky bleed gold
The truth is heavy, but the song feels old
You gotta walk through the hush, where the hurt still spin
And stitch up the dark from the inside in
(Background vocals hum low “Oooooh Hazel…”)

Muted trumpet solo over a minor blues progression
Followed by slow piano crawl — think Norah Jones meets Nina Simone

She ain’t no hero, just a girl with a thread
Pullin’ stories from the mouths of the dead
But every footstep turned silence to song
And every wrong place became where she belonged

Oh, South of Midnight, she rose like a flame
With a name made of thunder and no need for fame
She mended the pain that the old world spun
And wove back the soul ‘til the dawn had won

Faint gospel choir, fading horn, echoing piano
Where the stories sleep, and the roots run deep
(Hazel’s name sung soft like prayer)

Nancy Chisholm - South Of Midnight

Prayers and blessings to you all and all your families and special prayers and blessings to all the victims. May they all rest in peace.
