Pretty Tune 04:10
Pretty Tune Our love it was a song about a season Our love like a roller coaster tune Erase the lines of what I define Look inside my mind and I will find my treasons Call me on the telephone Forget the text I am here sitting all alone With my reasons For losing you Our love it was a song about a season Our love it ended slightly out of tune Pull apart all the memories Leaving tears that arise a possibility of a new life Swallow pride and just let it slide Cut the tape that I’m spinning buried in behind On why why why I’m losing you Our love it was a song about a season Our love it was such a pretty tune Pretty tune… Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2012

Wasting Time 03:01
Lay down your armour Impregnable shield With a false sense of honour Where nothing is real Keep on looking good Telling yourself you're doing fine Live the life you should/would/could That you hold in your mind But don't go wasting your time Don't go wasting time Lay down your shield Your chest pate and your heavy sword A truth will be revealed If you protect less then you receive more Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2013

Phoenix 03:35
It is the fiery edge of the sun coming down on the jungle Igniting the leaves and dusty shadows The breeze moves upon the trees scattered across the lawn The tiger comes alive Turning sorrow into laughter Changing water into wine The diamonds in the ashes bruised released To sparkle over time It is the deluge ripping up the shoreline Washing away everything that we've known Coming to grips with the face of the future fixed like a Phoenix To rise and soar above the ashes Time is the shepherd let it lead us to healing That we should find who we really are Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler & Ari Neufeld © 2011

Step Back 04:41
Step out away from all of it The void that awaits the fall Smell your embrace on my arm Step out away from all of it I wish that you would call Hear your rumble in my heart Falling on both sides of the fence The green grass eternal call Caught up in senseless self defence The war where one will fall away Step back away from all of it Stand up straight and tall Feel your heavy weighted harm Step back away from all of it Larger than life when small See this communion so strong Falling on both sides of the fence The green grass eternal call Wrapped up in senseless self defence The war where we all will fall away Falling on both sides of the fence The green grass eternal fall Call out in senseless self defence The heart will heed your call Today Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2013

Love Myself 04:08
I wish I knew how to love myself The way that I love you I'd be ten times taller and the world a lighter shade of blue The light that's in your eyes The way I watch you move I wish I knew how to love myself The way that you love me I'd wake up every morning feeling free I'd shed the winter weight My eyes would surely see All the love that I have inside of me The tragedy of pain Would evaporate with ease I wish I knew how to love myself The way that I love you For the sum of all your darkness and beauty too The reflection in your eyes That shows my heart in you Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2011

Dreaming 03:35
I'm usually pretty good at everything I do Everything I do except for me an you When all the signs are pointing do not enter here I hit the gas I'm speeding towards all my fears And I I don't want to bring you down I don't want to fight I only want to see you soul take flight And I I'll never forget loving you And I'll never curse your name I'll never give up hope for us someday I liked it better when I could see you every day An uppercut of reality was always in my way And now I'm lonely dreaming dreams that we used to dream As ambiguous as you and I you and I may seem And I I'll never stop loving you And I'll never curse your name I'll never give up hope for us someday Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2010

Dime Behind 02:49
Baby you don't have to hate me Oh no for every moment that I've been wrong I will try hard to listen Maybe teach me the language of how you love We won't fight anymore But we'll knock on the door Of something more Wishing wells won't find The dime behind right and wrong Right and wrong Baby please forgive me I admit there were times when I did you wrong That was never my intention Maybe teach me the language of how you love Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler & Jory Kinjo © 2012
8.
Come on over here and settle down Let me be the one that makes A little bit of love to right this wrong If that's what it takes Nip it in the bud and move along Expedite this wait I don't want to waste another day Wrapped up in this hate And I know A little bit of disconnect in between And we're fighting over nothing and I want to scream I know There's a little bit of you that I need to see And we're fighting over nothing and I want to feel your love I think that we're coming from a different place And our goals are not the same Everything to me feels logical But you're caught up in this blame I'm willing to abide and apologize For the part that I create But I need you to meet me in the middle of the road That we walk along today Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2011

Losertown 03:24
This bar's another losertown Fresh deadbeat alcohol and stoned Low brow humour wafting all around I don't know how low I can go Pour my another anyways Lost from another broken day Please fade frayed ambition to another common denominator down Oh tell me about the good old days Where the cost of our faith we paid Well played laid ambition drove another set of stories in the ground In the ground This bar's another losertown The same painted sinners row on row Licensed indiscretion for another round Oh I know how low you can go I know how low you can go Pour him another anyways He's lost from another broken day Please fade frayed ambition to another common denominator down Oh tell me about the good old days Where the cost of your love we paid Well played laid ambition drove another set of of martyrs in the ground In the ground Pour me another anyways We'll celebrate another living day Our faded frayed ambition shoots another common denominator round Oh tell me about the good old days Where the cost of our lives we paid Well played laid ambition for another living legacy is found Well played laid ambition for another living legacy is found It is found Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2012
10.
Light a candle in a mason jar to guide me home Follow footsteps through the snowy ground to know I'm not alone Feel the winter wind across your face to resolve your soul The legacy was built to share this space it is not my own A splitting beacon of an old birch tree watches over sheep Get the shovel out to clear this snow flood my heart for me Gather closer as we bow our heads give thanks for the feast This hidden valley from the world we know this sacred retreat Crackling warmth of a brush pile fire encircled in trees Echoing laughter race you down the hill we'll fall to our knees Winter breath exhaled to work the land so we can breathe Come all ye weary heavy burdened here you will find peace Come all ye weary heavy burdened here you will find peace Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2011

Lullaby #7 02:19
Lay down in my bed so weary A pillow for your head my beauty Leave only breath Sleep Dream Deeply Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2013

This Family 04:26
Advent calendars and time Snowy village lit inviting white light Tell the kids to go outside Light a fire in this brush pile so high This family it warms my heart To a place that I call home This family will never fall apart Forever bonded by our love Our love... Brother Sister let me hear Your resolutions for this coming new year Father Mother do not fear We're all together in this living room here When you're tired and the dark is heavy We are the people in your life The light in your life Music & Lyrics Written by Brent Tyler © 2011

Big Acoustic Love.

This is the best description of Brent Tyler’s music and live performance. An aggressive acoustic style combined with lungs befit of his seven foot stature.
