Description: This song is one I put together for someone I hurt, and wish I can take back what my broken brain does, My only hope is they know I miss when we'd sing together.

A track Wrote for the feelings we get when we've given up hope on any last hope of being happy, but the truth is no matter where you come from our what has happened to you there is always a brighter future to move forward too, There is only one you and you're a very special human being.

Vs. The World

I've been Hard at work the last few days on a new EP project I had an idea for. Here's another Track from the EP.

Infinite Sadness

I met her where the lights were humming low,
Some old place with coin-slot ghosts.
She said something small, I barely spoke—
Already sinking in her undertow.
Her laughter was like winter breaking glass,
Held me tight like a sailor stays a mast. 
But I’d been cracked long before she asked


I told her lies in quiet ways,
About how I was fine these days…
But silence speaks when nothing stays.


She moves like the thaw after snow,
Like the cold never touched her at all.
Still chasing shadows through the fall, 
She let go like it meant nothing at all,
But I still wear her love like a scar.
My heart’s broken from the start.


She worked with penguins at the city tank,
Fed them every day at noon.
Said she liked the quiet, steady thanks
Of creatures who never leave too soon.
She drove fast, like she feared the still,
Every mile we passed felt unreal.

She needed stars, I gave her storms,
All my love misshapen, worn—
Built from everything I hadn’t mourned.


She moves like the thaw after snow,
Like the cold never touched her at all.
Still chasing shadows through the fall, 
She let go like it meant nothing at all,
But I still wear her love like a scar.
My heart’s broken from the start.

I walk through rooms like a ghost,
Hollow, but not fully gone.
The storm in my head keeps spinning steady,
And every thought just pulls her on.
The maps are wrong, the stars are gone—
I’ve been lost since she let go.
And the thunder never breaks,
It just builds slow.

And she moves like the spring from the ice,
While I still freeze in that same place.
She loved me like I might be worth it—
I vanished before she could wait.
She let go like the hurt was nothing,
But I still echo with her name.
My soul’s not just broken—
It’s never been the same.

A flicker in a room of ghosts,
Somewhere past the arcade glow.
She glides.
I shatter.
That’s all I know.

Heart-Shaped Pebble

You were ink-stained fingers, midnight drafts
Plotting love with a novelist's craft
I was the silence in your denouement
A ghost too proud to say I’m wrong

You wrote stories I never read
Too lost in myself to see what bled
Through the pages, through your eyes
While I just watched the well run dry

Now the nights are quiet — deaf and wide
Like the riverbanks where cottonmouths hide

It slipped through the cracks of my careless hands
Like sands of time, like unspoken plans
I held you too loosely, I saw it too late
And now I’m just learning to carry the weight
I grieve like the sky when the storm has passed
But I still see your light through the overcast
You're a name on a spine, you're a world I outgrew
But God, there's no one like you

You dreamt in sentences, I lived in noise
You gave your heart, I played with toys
You were chapters deep, I skimmed the lines
I left your love out in the pines

I chipped at the edges of all that we built
Turned your patience to paper and love into silt
You reached like a lighthouse, I closed every door
And still you stayed longer than I had hoped for

Now the air tastes like ash where your laughter once stayed
And the shadows crawl in where your light used to lay

It slipped through the cracks of my careless hands
Like sands of time, like unspoken plans
I held you too loosely, I saw it too late
And now I’m just learning to carry the weight
I grieve like the sky when the storm has passed
But I still see your light through the overcast
You're a name on a spine, you're a world I outgrew
But God, there's no one like you

I replay the silence, the look on your face
When you finally knew I was wasting your grace
You gave me your heart, I gave you my need
Now I’m just the bruise where love used to bleed

It faded like static on a long-distance call
But I still hear your voice when the night's quiet falls
I buried the good with the mess that I made
But your shadow still leans on the choices I made
I’m learning to live with the silence you left
And to carry what's mine without holding what's dead
You’re a ghost in the lines, in the books I can't start
But I loved you — and still do — in some worn-out part

Cottonmouths sleep by the water still
And I try to forgive what I never will
