THIS OLD BARN

Verse 1
Silver walls worn painted patina 
Gaps in the wood let the sun rays glow
Dust in light falls like gold ballerinas
dancing down to 
 the floor below
Chorus
This old barn is barely standing
Its fragile frame can hardly hold its weight
Like a slow motion crash landing
Time gives us all the same fate
 Verse 2
Beneath old straw and worn out horse bridals
Molded memories line the floor
Once a place of beauty purpose, use, and selfless duty 
Now where u  nwanted pasts are stored

Chorus
This old barn is barely standing
Its fragile frame can hardly hold its weight
Like a slow motion crash landing
Time gives us all the same fate

Bridge
Papa sat me on his knee
Looked through aging   eyes and smiled at me
He said don’t get too old if you can help it
‘cause it ain’t pretty. 
(when)   
Chorus

This Old Barn

She's Smiling

Long enough to know…

Long Enough To Know

MOOD

Little Wars

Writing On Clouds

Mosul

I write my songs with sincerity and from the heart from a delude of personal experiences ranging from a war torn mind to a love struck heart.  From a young age music has given me my own world to crawl in and process life and the trauma it inflicts.
