Hey, I'm just another guy with a guitar, though I try not to think of myself that way. I enjoy bands like Metallica, Dream Theater, Tool, System of a Down. Unlike my idols though, my acoustic guitar music is more soft-spoken, and easier listening than the above mentioned. I've been playing since I was 14 and always strive to improve myself.

Story behind the song
It is not uncommon for Val to spend sleepless nights in the hospital as she watches Hope sleep. This third person lullaby applies to both Hope and Val, as Hope is missing out on her younger childhood, but at the same time Val feels she must grow quickly, and thus is deprived of part of her adolescence. Time stands as their only foe because they cannot get it back.
Lyrics
"Sleep young Hope And I’ll try to save you from Losing the chances to be a kid." Val would sit at her side Try with all of her might To take her Hope’s pain away Slow up, you won’t grow down All this strength you’ve already shown You’re a kid yourself, Val A selfless kid, Selfless, scared, and sublime One day soon enough You’ll find a calling That gift wraps your youth in good time Slow up, you won’t grow down All this strength you’ve already shown This warrior queen is worth fighting for Young and strong still you know For each other they’d fight forever Time stood still as their only foe If I could rewind time I would But time is the canvas on which destiny paints If everyone could do it over again, The painting called ‘Memory” it would taint Slow up, you won’t grow down All this strength you’ve already shown This warrior queen is worth fighting for Young and strong still you know For each other they’d fight forever Time stood still as their only foe
