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
They go out and paint the town red And tell me about their volunteer work My response is like puzzle pieces spilled on the floor So I smile and sweep it all under the rug They share their gospel Why won't I share mine? It just seems my kingdom Would be to them so foreign Like trying to explain something complexed to a small child I cannot just blurt out all I know But must choose my words wisely but like finding a small screw in fallen leaves after midnight Is what it would take to find the words I should speak And I don't want to get on my knees How many times have I groped about, everything a blur feeling every surface for my other par of eyes Sick of the fact I forgot where I placed them again My clarity of thought is lost in this fog that lingers through my day So we just talk about food, smile And bid each other a good day and leave
