The Lyrics: A Collection of Lyrics from the songs of Billy Alexander

From the heart of an award-winning songwriter and lead guitarist of prog-rock band YYNOT comes a powerful and poetic journey through words and melody.

The Lyrics is a curated collection of original lyrics by musician and producer Billy Alexander, capturing decades of storytelling through song. These lyrics—by turns introspective, electrifying, and deeply human—paint vivid portraits of love and loss, hope and heartbreak, dreams and defiance.

Whether he’s exploring the wonder of a “Trip Around the Sun,” confronting inner darkness in “Invisible Heart,” or channeling raw emotional truth in “Real Pain / Real Love,” Billy’s words pulse with musicality, vulnerability, and grit.

Spanning genres from rock to country to pop, this collection offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the soul of a songwriter. It’s a lyrical companion for longtime fans, fellow musicians, and anyone who has ever been moved by a well-crafted line or the healing power of music.

“Just like the night, a mystery of life—dark then it’s bright, like a firefly…”
