Artist picture
Progressive finger-style guitar, with emotional melodies and raw, honest lyrics.
I invite you to amble through my world of raw, emotional and honest song writing. I hope it might strike a chord in you and be a little more like a flower among the thorns of unsigned amateurs here on SoundClick. Though I indeed am a unsigned amateur myself.

Lyrics
Why must I kiss the feet Why must I bow down Why must I loyally serve myself? I am the king of fools An idiot hedonist trying the same things hoping for different results I want to rebel Oh to rebel But my words fall like bricks from my lips And on them I trip My commitments are like pride, They come right before I fall Oh why do I climb a mountain Why do I swim the ocean Why do I pay such a high price For something that is fleeting that rings so empty that never satisfies? I sell my soul for a bowl of pottage And then I sit and wonder "heck, it did not even taste that good" What was I thinking? I was not thinking For the memory of reality Never comes to me till the deed is done; As an after thought, as in horror I watch As my city burns to the ground.
