This page contains a sample of my work. If you are interested in the music, please let me know.
A friend asked me recently, "Why all the sad songs?" Right off, let me tell you that although some themes may have autobiographical roots, more are the result of exploring common themes. That being said, one title here, We Drew The Music, does relate a personal story from long ago.
But the real truth behind these songs is this: happy songs don't really sell!
Waiting For The End
I keep waiting for the end to happen.
We can't go on living in this madness when there's a better way
I keep imagining when it's gonna happen and what I'm going to say
I can almost taste the sweetness of telling you goodbye
Because I'm living in a nightmare and have no more tears to cry
When I play it out in my mind it always comes round to feeling
That I spent these years locked up and finally find I'm breathing
I'm breathing
Fresh air was never sweeter
The complications of this life have kept me from moving on
You'd think I'm weak to stay here but the truth is I'm too strong
Strong to let you push against me like an angry little child
To humor you and tolerate you every time you're wild
So I am waiting for the end to happen
I'm waiting to inhale that first sweet breath that's mine
When I tell you it's goodbye
I'll be breathing
Fresh air that's even sweeter
After telling you goodbye

Cool My Fire
I saw you again
You didn't know it was me
I was hiding so you couldn't see
I was too afraid you'd notice me
I saw you again
From across the crowded room
I never thought it would be so soon
But there you were with your bright eyes
I saw you again
As I watched you with that charm
I yearned to feel wrapped in your arms
Forgetting feeling you brought me pain
I remember how you loved me
Why did you ever leave me?
I remember how I loved you
Why couldn't you stay true?
Now I can't forget you
I'm always thinking of you
Cool my fire
If even for a little while
Love me again and makes me sigh
My world's grown darker with the miles
Love me again- help me smile
I can't seem to forget you
Can't stop thinking of you
Cool my fire
Just for a little while
