Nihilistic Delusion (EP version)

Wildflower is an uplifting song about love and freedom. Featuring acoustic guitars, harmony vocals, electric guitar, bass, and drums, the song will have you tapping your toes, clapping and singing along, even doing a little shuffle step in the best Americana tradition. The lyric is honestly in the moment, happy yet with a bit of a wistfulness. Its an Indie song done in a traditional style that is sometimes called Americana, but to me songs built around acoustic guitars and harmony vocals cross cultures and are found everywhere. When I was first coming up as a guitar player, I was helped out a bunch by some older cats who had played every style of music, and they generously and patiently showed me a lot of what I know. We would sit and play acoustic guitars and sing, and really get together on the songs and the music. Sometimes it was in someone's living room or on the porch, or on the beach, but wherever, putting your guitar part and harmonies right in the pocket to make a nice blend was always the goal. This song is kind of a tribute to those great players (long may they run!)and that style of playing and music making, its fun, I hope it never goes away!

I picked these wildflower
cuz they remind me of you
they’re beautiful wild and free
but they can never belong to me
cuz wildflowers have to grow free

But I can hold em in my hands
the way I hold you in my arms
I close my eyes and I pretend
that this feeling will never end
I pretend this love will never end

I’m giving you these wildflowers
Oooh prettiest thing I see
Whenever you see those wildflowers
I hope they remind you of me
cuz like you, I have to live free

Whenever I see you wildflower
like your sitting there just for me
If I try to keep you, it won’t last
so I’ll let you be wild and free
like our love, like you and me

Lies We Tell Ourselves

Monster

What's that invitation barely hidden in your eyes?
I broke down and let you know my heart.
Then the stars did uncross, didn't meant to be your boss
Oh I am a poor hand in the game.

What's That Invitation?

After all this time I've become a ghost...empty vessel, discarded host.
The young don't notice the pale gray men, just as single-minded as I was then.

It's like I've disappeared, faded and unclear...maybe I was never here at all.

My ambitions are old and tattered. My desires no longer matter.
My great dreams all lay in dust...corroding in my heart of rust.

Once a player upon the stage, now a footnote, a crumpled page.

Everyone just looks right through me, everyone just walks on by.
It seems that now I'm just a phantom, a silent specter with empty eyes.

It's like I've disappeared, faded and unclear...maybe I was never here at all.

I'm a song that's almost completed. Slings and arrows left me defeated.
Every line but the last verse sung. I once was vital, once was young.

Once a player upon the stage, now a footnote, a crumpled page.

Everyone just looks right through me, everyone just walks on by.
It seems that now I'm just a phantom, a silent specter with empty eyes.

I'm still here, I call.

I Was Never Here
