There’s a special place 
In hell 
For a man like you 
Using up women 
You’ve got your women 
To play your muse 
Inspiring all those pretty lines 
And turns of phrase 
Turns of phrases 

If you didn’t scare me before 
You sure do now 
Holdin the hands of your friends downtown 
Suffering inside your beer 
And yet 
You still sing about me 

A kiss can be deadly when you mean it 
I really wish I didn’t mean it
You said you’d never let me drown
Well baby I’ve found 
Puddles deeper than you 
Darlin you used me too 
Keep your pretty head above water 
My heart for the slaughter 
You could’ve loved just a little longer 
I would’ve gone quietly 

If you didn’t scare me before 
You sure do now 
Holdin the hands of your friends downtown 
Cryin in your beer 
And yet
You’re still here

He has been releasing records ever since on small independent labels and his own imprint Eastern Spurs. His new release "Tales from the Terramar" chronicles a move back to California from NYC during the pandemic and hints at topics of addiction and renewal.  The new album will be released 09/17/2021 and features Gibbs band from Brooklyn; Tim Kuhl (Sean Lennon, Margaret Glaspy, Goastt)- drums, Matt Brandau (Old Ceremony)- bass, and Philip Sterk (Midland)- pedal steel.
