Music is everything
Long before I could build a guitar, I simply played them. All the time. Since I was 8 years old I have had a guitar in my hands and songs churning in my soul.
Here, I have compiled a list of songs I have written, arranged and produced. The words, progressions, melodies and emotion are mine. Have a listen.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Yeah she's a hard one Set in all her ways She'll tell you how it's gonna be There ain't no room for in between She opened her eyes one day She was runnin' for the door There ain't no stoppin' her for nothin' And always room for a little more [Chorus] She looks back with nostalgia And never hints at regret There ain't no room for in between here She's only got one destination And she ain't made it there yet [Instrumental] [Chorus] She's a hard woman She's a hard woman Oh but I love her so much I love her so much [Instrumental] [Verse 2] She walks the street after dark Thinkin' on her life and how it's fallin' apart She closes her eyes to see somewhere she'd rather be Somewhere other than this hell As someone other than herself [Chorus] She's a hard woman She's a hard woman Oh but I love her so much I love her so much [Guitar Solo] [Outro] (Instrumental)
Dreaming about tomorrow come to think of it I thought of it yesterday That's right I was thinking that it was all the same Until I remembered The way your skin felt against mine And I remembered The way you made me feel inside [Chorus] I see your eyes when I close mine I'd say I like this distance between us but I won't lie I don't like this distance The space between us [Verse 2] I don't know exactly what to say I'm sick of my words being taken by my shame (Oh-oh-oh) Until I remember The way your skin felt against mine And I remember The way you made me feel inside [Chorus] I see your eyes when I close mine I'd say I like this distance between us but I won't lie I don't like this distance The space between us [Outro] Dreaming about tomorrow come to think of it I thought of it yesterday That's right I was thinking that it was all the same Until I remembered you Until I remembered you (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ripe and delicious I'm gonna miss this when I return home But I gotta cross that water and you ain't coming along I've had lots of fun babe, but you're just the fruit of a labor That I've been here long enough for I've done my business now I've got to go home (Oh-oh-alone) [Chorus] She's a passionate one She's a fruit of forbidden taste I'm gonna miss this place [Verse 2] Coconut drink, umbrella, and a tank-top Body rocking shop poppin' Bacardi like we were Hell-bent and held up on the strip Damn look at those thighs make you curl your toes up 'fore you even know it you're fucked up and She's looking so fine [Chorus] She's a passionate one She's a fruit of forbidden taste She's a passionate one She's a fruit of forbidden taste [Guitar Solo] (Instrumental) [Outro] (Instrumental)
It's like I can see myself Outside of myself Like a god's eye view Of the things that I'm doing But there's no control [Verse 1] Have you ever watched yourself like a disconnected? No association with mind or matter Actions taken form before you even had a chance To calm yourself for the coming after [Pre-Chorus] It's like a dream in which I'm paralyzed Can't see the fire for the flames through these disconcerted eyes [Chorus] there's no space inside my head for all the voices screaming all this bullshit Ask yourself what's next? Don't be alarmed if it's not exactly what you expect It's hard to find a reason for any of this when you're stuck inside your head [Verse 2] living in a state of confusion I've been lost for some time now not sure when I lost myself - Maybe I was never really being myself in the first place Maybe it's my face I see when I look into the mirror I only wish that I could see everything just a little bit clearer [Chorus] there's no space inside my head for all the voices screaming all this bullshit Ask yourself what's next? Don't be alarmed if it's not exactly what you expect It's hard to find a reason for any of this when you're stuck inside your head [Outro] living in a state of confusion I've been lost for some time now
