indie spiritual real creative dark christian fingerstyle emotional personal deep honest alt tuning capos
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
I took the pain and put it in a box Secured it in tape and clothed it in wrapping paper I put on it a bow so I would have something nice to show But there are more senses than sight Though behind masking tape I can make him hide It all does little to suppress subtle shakes and sighes A 1,000 miles on a journey to an imagined somewhere Pathed in hope, plenty of billboards promising the world Constantly encouraged by motivational speakers on the radio But I arrived to a closing door and the sound of locks Now I back-track upon a road now littered in pot holes And I listen to a talk show host saying "see, I told you so" A thousand miles on a journey to another dead end road So many pieces all seemed to keep falling in placed That i found myself tempted, wanting to believe it was providence I mean surely it would take mighty hand of God to make it all line up But I suppose i must have had a picture in my mind So no surprise that I arranged colorful shapes to please my eyes Only to learn it was nothing but merely randoms pieces with no relationship at all
