What It Is
lyrics by Shelt Garner

please give credit if you produce or perform

meaningless as can be
you plead to let you in
can’t help you one bit
I’m done with your shit

it is what it is
it is what it is
it is what it is

nothing more to say
you let me run away
loves come and go
and you’re definitely gone
because as you know

it is what it is
it is what it is
it is what it is

(bridge)
all I want is
some accountability
proof of your love
evident that it’s true
but that’s not something
you can do

it is what it is
it is what it is
it is what it is

‘All Clear’ #Lyrics To A #Pop #Rock #Ballad

All Clear
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

rush to the door
once we hear the last roar
don’t you fret
this is the end of it I bet
onw we’re all just waiting
for the all clear, all clear, all clear

the all clear from the violence
no more unexpected bangs or booms
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here

our love of the future makes us blink
why do we have to live life on the brink
the jets come and go
but my love remains here with you
can you feel its roar
but when it comes to want you in my life
it will never be said that

the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
no more unexpected bangs or booms
no more unexpected bangs or booms
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here

(bridge)
the darkness of the night
hides the turbulence of the fight
explosions abound I’m afraid
no all clear is heard
and until dawn arrives

the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
no more unexpected bangs or booms
no more unexpected bangs or booms
the all clear is here
the all clear is here
the all clear is here

Siren

can you hear the air raid siren
can you here the air raid siren
can you here the air raid siren

hold me close so I can get a dose
this may be it
this may be the end my love
we’re not longer on the run
it’s just you and me
on the edge of destiony
what’s that I hear
it’s the air raid siren

can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren

we’re under the ground
but I won’t let you frown
keep your hopes up
it’s all we got at this point
when things are so rough
but now again the sound rings out
what’s that I hear
it’s the air raid siren

can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren

(bridge)
we they give the all clear
I’ll hold you tight
know you’re without fright
the fight has just begun
we’re never going to run
even when we hear the air raid siren

can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren
can you hear that
the air raid siren

‘Mindreader’ — #Lyrics to a #Pop #Song

Mindreader
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

I walk by your place
with shame on my face
wondering where it all went wrong
knowing all I got is this song

wish I could have read your mind
that would have been sublime
wish I could have read your mind
that would have been sublime
sublime, sublime

maybe if I was a mindreader
things would have turned out differently
you’d still be by my side
I’d hear your sigh when I held you tight
knowing everything would be alright.

wish I could have read your mind
that would have been sublime
wish I could have read your mind
that would have been sublime
sublime, sublime

(bridge)
now I can read your mind
you don’t want me in your life
no matter how much being there
for me would bring you delight

wish I could have read your mind
that would have been sublime
wish I could have read your mind
that would have been sublime
sublime, sublime

‘Risk Another’ — #Lyrics to a #Pop #Ballad

Risk Another
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

lovers come and go
but your departure
came as a blow
what am I to do
to right my ship of state
I can’t even get out of bed
to go on a date

I had a lover
I don’t think
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
I’d risk another

our love was sublime
inspired me to great heights
now I struggle to put words together
that rhyme
but I have to push forward
keep the faith
because tomorrow is another date

I had a lover
I don’t think
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
I’d risk another

(bridge)
my love for you is enternal
the grief I feel now that you’re gone
is eternal, too
but one day I’ll recover I swear
and maybe make a baby

I had a lover
I don’t think
I’d risk another
I’d risk another
I’d risk another

‘Where You Loved Me’ — #Lyrics to a #Country #Pop #Ballad

Where You Loved Me
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

where you loved me
where you loved me
where you loved me

our love was better than most
we were the toast of the town
just you and your old man the clown
my hands might have been rough
but for you they were smooth enough

where you loved me
will never stop existing
in my heart
where you loved me
is all around me
even though we grew apart
where you loved me
where you loved me
where you loved me

now our home is just a house
the place where you loved me
doesn’t exist I’m afraid
it’s just a shack without a soul
if I may be so bold

(bridge)
where you loved me
never ever existed
that it was all a lie
but that doesn’t stop me
having another drink
with a sigh

where you loved me
will never stop existing
in my heart
where you loved me
is all around me
even though we grew apart
where you loved me
where you loved me
where you loved me

‘Open To The Dark’ — #Lyrics To A #Pop #Ballad

Open To The Dark
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

your satisfaction
of the flesh
cast a pale, a shadow
over my soul
but when push came to shove
I opened the door to the dark

I’m not afraid
of the dark
not afraid of starting a fight
with the fears that I feel
because I know in the end
I’ll win

the door is open to the dark
I’m ready to start a fight
with my fears I’m afraid

the door is open to the dark
I’m ready to start a fight
with my fears I’m afraid

the door is open to the dark
I’m ready to start a fight
with my fears I’m afraid

(bridge)
the light will shine one day
make my fears fly away
but tonight alas I have to fight
the darkness one last time before
I leave

the door is open to the dark
I’m ready to start a fight
with my fears I’m afraid

the door is open to the dark
I’m ready to start a fight
with my fears I’m afraid

the door is open to the dark
I’m ready to start a fight
with my fears I’m afraid

‘Love You The Most’ — #Lyrics to a #Pop #Song

Love You The Most
lyrics by Shelt Garner

@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

love you the most
love you the most
love you the most

the end could be neigh
I’d still hug you and smile
of all the places I could be
in your arms is it
if the world ends
wanna be with the one
who has my heart

love you the most
could heat the sun
or power a city
with how it burns

love you the most
could heat the sun
or power a city
with how it burns

people say we won’t last
that the earth is about to explode
but I don’t care what they say
as long as it’s you and me
together at the end of history

love you the most
could heat the sun
or power a city
with how it burns

love you the most
could heat the sun
or power a city
with how it burns

(bridge)
know I’m being dramatic
that it’s all too hectic
but I love you more than ever
even after we turn into dust
lighter than a feather

love you the most
love you the most
love you the most
love you the most
love you the most
love you the most

‘A Cold Rain’ –#Lyrics To A #Pop #Song

Too bad for fucked up legal reasons this will probably never be produced. But the quick jolt of creativity that writing song lyrics gives me is a lot of fun.
A Cold Rain
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

a cold rain
complicates
everything
everything
everything

check my watch in the dark
afraid my heart will be broken
can’t get no signal on my phone
I’m afraid I’m alone

I think of walking to your place
so I can see your face
give you a kiss when I arrive
but it’s cold and rainy
I realize with a sigh

a cold rain
complicates everything

a cold rain
complicates everything

a cold rain
complicates everything

what am I going to do
if you tell me we’re through
will you throw me out into the dark
force me to go where you are not
but I’m just nervous, insecure
it must be the cold rain
and its complications

(bridge)
when the warmth of the sun returns
won’t have any worries or any cares
we’ll be together for enterity
just like it’s supposed to be
you’ll love me, keep me warm
it will be as simple as can be

because we all know that for now
we have to deal with the cold rain
of fading love

a cold rain
complicates everything

a cold rain
complicates everything

a cold rain
complicates everything

a cold rain
complicates
everything
everything
everything

Russians II — #Lyrics To A #Pop #Rock Song

Russians II
lyrics by Shelt Garner
@sheltgarner
Please give credit if you produce or perform

saw the news today where
the Russians wanted free the freed
I asked myself what did this mean
why do we have to do this again
Ukrainians love their land
they’ll going to make the Russians pay

Russians have children too
they have to look at them
can they?

Russians have children too
Russians have children too
Russians have children too
they have to look at them
can they?

the fight is for hearts and minds
the shock and awe is here
destroying everything we hold dear
but in the end the Russians
have to look themselves in the mirror

Russians have children too
they have to look at them
can they?

Russians have children too
Russians have children too
Russians have children too
they have to look at them
can they?

(bridge)
we’re all grown ups
we should know better
don’t take what’s not yours
but here we are fighting for toys
that could lead to a global war

Russians have children too
they have to look at them
can they?

Russians have children too
Russians have children too
Russians have children too
they have to look at them
can they?
