The Things Ive Learned From A Broken Mirror // How A Face Can Change When A Heart Knows Fear

The things I’ve learned from a broken mirror // How a face can change when a heart knows fear

This is such a beautiful song from Andrew McMahon! These lyrics are so sweet, and its even more beautiful when you know he wrote it for his daughter as a road map of where he’s been and what he wants for her.  I love the symbolism of the satellite, and you can hear all the emotion in his voice.

I will be your guardian when all is crumbling // I steady your hand

My favorite Fray song ever.  I love the piano in this song, and he has so much emotion in his voice throughout. These lyrics are so beautiful and almost pure, which is a stark contrast from Isaac’s powerful and almost slurring voice.

I’m picking up the pieces // I’m trying out adhesives // I’m trying to fix a place that feels broken

Love this song so much by Switchfoot.  Especially in today’s political climate, I feel like this song is needed more so than ever.  This version, the acoustic one with only Jon Foreman, has such a powerful impact, and it showcases the words perfectly.  We make the world how it is, so every day is a chance to change the world.  Everything we do has an impact, and it is in a way our religion.

You like me best when I’m off my rocker // Tell you a secret, I’m not alarmed // So what if I’m crazy? // The best people are

Love this song from Melanie!  This song has such a cool industrial vibe, while still keeping true to her kid-like nature in her songs.  She’s so good at writing lyrics from a completely metaphorical viewpoint, and this song highlights that perfectly.

You don’t have to care, so don’t pretend // Nobody needs a best fake friend

Love this song by James Bay! I am a huge James Bay fan, but I really love the energy that this song has.  His voice is flawless, as always, and I really love the message and lyrics of this song.

How many times can I break til I shatter // Over the line, can’t define what I’m after

One of my favorite OAR songs. I love his voice in this song.  These lyrics are so relatable and honest, and it’s a great song about needing to just be strong enough to break the cycle of your life.  It’s a little it of an older song, but it’s still a good one!
