Lyrics & Poems

As I will always remain a writer first, I am going to include lyrics here, down just below the playlist, next to where you can also purchase the music, or listen again to the corresponding song.

 

If you would like to listen to what I've been working on lately, I put it on this Soundcloud playlist, right here ----------------> 

​

And if you would like to read some more lyrics or poems, I have links to both at the very bottom of this page :) 

​

Awake in a city of sounds that bring you Home 
"you get used to it," is what I'm told 
Burned every bridge where I use to sleep 
Never going back, between you and me 

Back in the beginning of a great start, 
Working hard now on a broken heart 
Went and gone, and done it again 
Love opened me up and took a friend 

So, I'll play a tune and drowned that ring 
Where hope gets lost and blind never see. 
Exchanging every night for day, 
Show me how to fall and be okay... 

Hear the sound of a train and hum of Highway, 
Kinda wanna leave, but I kinda wanna stay. 
Telephone crackles in the back of my mind, 
a lonely tone flying a "HUNGRY" sign 

As I play a tune and start to sing 
Hoping you'll come back to me 
and exchange even one more day for night, 
Maybe this time we could get it right..

I picked up this ol' guitar a couple o' years ago, 
and just started walking, when I had nowhere to go. 

Don't know where I'm headed, I don't wanna join no band, 
but I'll see the end of every road before I die, if I can. 

Somewhere down this road I'm on, someone's feelin' just as alone, 
and if I sing loud enough, this could be more than just a song. 


I seen friends and lovers, and children all pass away. 
I felt like an old man, at the age of 28. 

When I get to feelin' lonely, wishing for a life I had, 
I sit down on the corner, strum awhile, and put out the hat. 

Well, I don't know no “Jesus,” but if you a prayin' man, 
put in a good-word for me, wish God 'ould help this travelin' man. 


Now, I aint say all this fo' pitty, I don't need nothing from you, 
but somewhere out there's someone feelin' like I do. 

Somewhere down this road I'm on, someones feeling just as alone, 
and if I sing loud enough, this could be more than "Just a song."
