I'm an amateur with no plans to be anything else. I don't write much these days, but in my younger, less stable days I felt moved to write songs to express what was in my head.

Lyrics
Nineteen now but only for another day I could sit and recite some old cliche but I think I'll look ahead instead at the road in front of me I have made predictions in my past Hoping that the mirror would hint at what might come to pass But the reflection only showed me what I had left behind Not what I would choose to see I think I might know how you feel It's like a building near where you grew up The first glance stirs your memory But as you walk through the halls, you see things that aren't there The people walking past you have no reason to care And though it makes you sad, there's nothing they could say They've never known it any other way Turn the mirror to glass Turn the stone to clay The passing of a second The tick of a clock and it's a new day
