Pieces Of Me 03:34
Pieces of Me It’s hard when I find myself in such a bitter and sour state It’s hard telling my heart to love, when it only wants to hate Because it wants to hate what this world is trying to tell it to feel It wants to hate what they think is important Because it knows it isn’t even real And it’s protected my eyes from being blinded by Golden Fleece And when they stand up to lead, it shows me if there are any lies in the words they speak You know, those hidden undertones in the messages underneath And what my heart hates most is when people don’t practice what they preach And I would be a fool and a hypocrite if I didn’t think this applied to me It would be a waste of my wisdom after everything I’ve seen After everything I’ve done, all those important life lessons I learned from Yes it would be a waste of my wisdom and I’ve come to far to run So singing hey ya ya I put a filter in this rhyme I like to use it sometimes To slow Ya slow Slow down the thoughts Before I lose my mind Ya Ya And so of all the things I feel capable of I know you would understand Its silly I feel like a super hero with this guitar in my hand It’s like a shot of heroin straight into the brain But I believe it’s a good kind of drug That could make some crazy people sane So I’m going to step into this void, through the vibrations in my ears But sometimes I feel like a big tree falling but there is no one is there to hear Because I don’t know about forever, Shit, I barely know about today And every moment that slips by take me further on my way And one day those moments will stop But time will keep flying by Because I believe whoever said death brings a journey’s end, Misspoke or either lied So I’m not going to worry about forever Because that’s something god can’t even know Someday forever might show up and show god something he doesn’t already know And so for the mean time I’m just looking for a safety meeting Just a simple safe place where we can all breath in It’s a special kind of place, a place that I feel free in But sometimes my fear gives me these butterfly feelings And I know how busy life can get and I’m not trying to cause you any stress But this is the only way I know how to let this kind of weight of my chest Because I’ve seen enough bad that I almost checked out early But somewhere along the road I found the strength to do some self-soul surgery And now all I’m interested in is the quality of thought in my mind And your energy helps me capture a real moment in time So singing hey ya ya I put a filter in this rhyme I like to use it sometimes To slow Ya slow Slow down the thoughts Before I lose my mind Ya Ya

Only Way Out 03:04
Only Way Out We should talk a little more about death and dying But remember they’re ideas No need for fighting Its not about right or wrong Its about getting along Because we only really know That we go into the ground And an afterlife i don't know If souls ever found So I’ll keep singing these songs Helps pass the time along As I think about the comfort In the life we’re living And feel the weight in the truth of a curse of never being forgiven Because I’ve help bodies part with there souls I’m living in a hell I helped build I know But Lately I’ve had nothing but time to think And when left to myself I go way to deep And now I hear the darkness getting to loud Screaming a bullet is my only way out My only way out My only way out Screaming my only way out My only way out Until you Threw me your hand and helped my out

Mind Maze 05:56
Mind Maze Luxury in life Is a dangerous thing Draws you in like a trap With all those pretty things But luckily I’m a simple man Just need the arms of a women Tries to understand Oh why is Berlin So far away And I hope these words Make it through my minds maze Got the homeless in the street Refusing to die But the rich man so sad Puts a bullet in his eye Because working so hard for something you don't need Sounds a lot like being a slave to me Oh why is Berlin So far away And I hope these words Make it through my minds maze Just chasing down what it means To be alive Because I’ve felt my heart beat But was dead inside So if the morning comes And I open my eyes Won’t waste no time Askin why Oh why is Berlin So far away And I hope these words Make it through my minds maze My minds maze My minds Maze

Know 03:30
Know I’ve been places No-one wants to be And I’ve see somethings No-one wants to see So now I know So now I know That I don't know That I don't know And I cant stop these memories From racing through my head And sometimes I find myself Dwelling on the dead So now I know So now I know That I don't know That I don't know But I know me That I know I know its hard to admit when I’ve been wrong I know I’d be a liar If it wasn't for these songs So now I know So now I know That I don't know That I don't know But I know me That I know Now I know me

Insomnia 03:26
Insomnia Whiskey thins the blood in my veins Eyes growing wired, another bump of cocaine Haven’t slept in so many days But still… I don’t expect you… to understand The days grow cold, my body is weak Sit next to the fire because I can’t sleep Empty bottle gently rest in my hands But still… I don’t expect you… to understand Inside it is my heart that bleeds Inside is a pain that you can’t see Inside it hides and it slowly kills But still… I don’t expect you… to understand

about

This release is a solo performance as a showing of my gratitude. I thank all of you who have supported me in this journey of discovery through my in music. I feel a lot of fear in the world around us right now. I too have struggled in my ability to communicate and respond to the world around me often lashing out violently. These songs are what I have to fight that fear, in myself, and in the world around me. I've come a long way and I still have a long way to go. I look forward to sharing this journey with all of you.

released February 24, 2017

This list is so long... but if we've ever been up until the sunrise talking... shared a moment in music...Been out of our minds around a campfire... watch a sunset... laughed together, cried together... been afraid together... and still held on to a positive mindset together even when one of us is failing... your name would be here... Ya, know its cheesy... But its true.

But a big thanks to Lindsay Chastain... for putting up with me for so long
Cody Tesnow... you're the best pretend pay money can buy
And Nicholas Libertad for the help with recording and production!
