Songs Written By Anne McBride Vol. I
It begins in the aftermath: Not the Girl I Once Was and A Month Too Late set the tone of hard-earned growth, where innocence has been shed and lessons arrived just after they were needed. The voice is wiser now, no longer offering kindness without boundaries (Don’t Take My Kindness for Granted), no longer surviving on borrowed time (Angels on Borrowed Time). These early songs wrestle with loss, survival, and the slow, painful walk toward forgiveness and self-redemption (Redemption Road).
As the collection unfolds, love appears—not as a rescue, but as a recognition. In Captivated by Your Eyes, Road That Leads to You, and You, the Love I Have Been Waiting For, love is found unexpectedly, steady and earned rather than chased. Vulnerability takes center stage in quieter moments like Porcelain Silence and Where My Soul Lays Bare, where truth is whispered instead of shouted.
Midway through the book, strength replaces survival. Songs like Make the Ground Shake, Without Fear, Standing, and Six Steps Forward declare resilience, momentum, and the refusal to be broken again. There is movement here—feet hitting the ground (I Feel the Beat in My Feet), storms faced head-on (Wrecking Wind), and fire used to cleanse rather than destroy (Burn It Clean).
By the final chapters, love and future are inseparable. The Future in Your Eyes, Where We Belong, and Run to My Love speak of chosen commitment, shared direction, and the quiet certainty that arrives after struggle. The closing songs—North Enough for Me, When the Days Are Over, and You Just Know—leave the listener with peace instead of longing, confidence instead of doubt.
Together, these songs tell the story of becoming:
from heartbreak to healing,
from guarded to open,
from surviving to standing,
from searching to knowing.
This is not just a book of songs.
It is a map of a life reclaimed—and a love finally met at the right time.
