3)Von D Ft Lone Ranger - Till A Morning

Jon Randall, one of the song's co-writers, had just divorced from country singer Lorrie Morgan before writing this song. In addition, he had lost a record deal, and had not been able to find a songwriting contract either. He found himself drinking whiskey regularly, and pursuing sexual desires. After seeing the condition that Randall was in at the time, his manager told him, "Hey man, every now and then you've got to put a bottle to your head and pull the trigger." 
Randall then wrote down that line, and decided to use it in a song. He then met Bill Anderson and began to write the song, which eventually made its way to Paisley. Randall himself also included a version on his 2005 album Walking Among the Living.

Lyrics

(Brad)
She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind,
Until the night.

Chorus: (Both)
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I'll love her 'til I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby.


(Alison)
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind,
Until the night.

Chorus: (Both)
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby.


Whiskey Lullaby [Brad Paisley Feat. Alison Krauss]

The Bigger Picture

LYRICS

Verse 1:
Silenced, divided
And fighting so long
We may not agree
But we need to be strong
As our nation awakens
To heed freedom’s call
We are patriots rising
So we can stand tall

Chorus:
American warriors, open your eyes
Liberty’s calling, patriots rise
While the storm does engage us, be brave and courageous 
Pledge your allegiance with American pride

Verse 2:
As we stand here together
With our flag flying high
Her colors remind us
Of those who laid down their lives
Protecting our freedom
And paving the way
Destiny’s calling
So be not afraid

*Chorus*

SO...that's the official. Here's the personal:

I love to write...and entertain...
I love the sun...even the rain.

I love waterfalls...the tropics and Italy...
Great food, great friends, intelligence, no enemies.

I love eyes, and all that they say...
Soul and beauty...night and day.

I love people, and learning from the choices they make...
The good, the bad, the true and the fake.

I love trust, and those who can too...
Despite the hardships we all go through.

I love peace...although without war,
How would we understand what balance is for?

I love happiness...and the pursuit of giving joy...
Even to those who sometimes destroy.

I love laughter...how it can touch...
How it breaks down barriers and unifies us.

I love sound, and its awesome being...
Life in vibration...all the ways it is freeing.

I love my parents for loving each other...
Teaching the world...allowing me to discover.

I love my God for HE IS LOVE...
Elevating my spirit to soar above.
