Ben Travis is a solo artist who writes all his own songs, as well as plays the piano, sings, produces, and engineers on his newest recordings. "My goal, " he says, "is to write music that will inspire people to think and ask meaningful questions about the world around them." His style is gentle, yet thoughtful, and his musicianship is high quality. Ben is currently working on an album called "All the Way Home" which he wrote while going through the process of watching his father die of cancer. He is also working on an album of trance music called "Miles Per Second" and a new instrumental album called "Leaving the Chrysalis." Ben has just finished an instrumental album which contains quiet, meditative piano music. These songs were played in moments of inspiration, and can be used for massage therapy, meditation, or just quiet background music. This album is set up to fit a 60-minute massage session perfectly. It is called "Mentored By Life, " and will be available in CD format soon.

Story behind the song
Once someone passes away, we no longer have the chance to do or say the things we could have when they were alive. I wrote this song as my dad was dying of cancer.
Lyrics
So many things I thought I'd have the time to say But it's over now, and I did not find a way So many years I sat and watched you rot away But I never had the time to stop the pain No, I never had the time to stop the pain (chorus) But it's over now Yes it's over now And I guess if you asked me I'd say it's a hell of a price to pay to get your name in the paper for free and I guess if you asked me I wish you'd stay I couldn't see at the time why you wanted me to come To sit with you seemed pointless when you were so drunk Now I see the lonely man you were back then And I wish I could do it all over again Yes, I wish I could do it all over again [to chorus] I guess I never put myself in your shoes I guess I never tried to see through your eyes I might have been surprised [to chorus]
