Alley Cat

Lyrics:

My heart is racing, my head is sore
I’m contemplating, being alone
Another night in, this raging storm,
But I’m not breaking, I’m standing tall

And I don’t wanna live forever
But I just wanna say goodbye tonight
No I just wanna come back down to earth

The drugs are dripping into my veins
I’m trying hard to forget the way 
It looks inserted inside my arm
Someone sound the alarm

What did I do wrong when I was young?  Was I too selfish, should I have shown
More love to people, who helped me grow
I’m staying strong but, I’m losing hope

And I don’t wanna live forever
But I just wanna say goodbye tonight
No I just wanna come back down to earth

The drugs are dripping into my veins
I’m trying hard to forget the way 
It looks inserted inside my arm
Someone sound the alarm

What did I do wrong when I was young?  Was I too selfish, should I have shown
More love to people, who helped me grow
I’m staying strong but, I’m losing hope

A euphoric rush of love and abandon

Sweet Nausea

My friend was dating someone that only seemed to cause drama, not just for my friend, but for everyone they were close to. Sadly I had to distance myself, set some boundaries and love my friend from afar to protect my own peace. Sometimes the outcome is inevitable, and all you can do is be there when the rose tinted glasses come off, and that's what I wrote this about

Call Me When It's Over

Cold Hearts is a protest song against the state of the world, caused by the cold-hearted leaders who are fueled by a lust for power and deprived from empathy. More political than any of my previous songs, but I needed to speak up through my art. I hope it makes you feel something. And I hope it can be part of a manifestation for a better world.

Haven't You Heard The News?

[Intro / Verse 1]
Smoked my last cigarette, sat in bed for a while.
Thought of your face, and that brought me a smile.
Wanted another one. Fell back asleep, instead.
Woke and found you sitting there on the bed.
I fell for you, baby, like a bomb
Now my love’s gone up in flames
[Chorus]
Cigarette, cigarette,
Burning up time.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Watch the smoke climb.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Wasting away.
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down.
Only one hour ‘til you’re leaving this town.
[Verse 2]
Went to the corner store, bought us another pack.
Held my arm around you as we headed back.
I tried to change your mind. Didn’t want you to go.
I want you more, it seems, than you could ever know.
We’re history, baby, read it in a book
It ended in the fire that started with a look
[Chorus]
Cigarette, cigarette,
Burning up time.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Watch the smoke climb.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Wasting away.
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down.
Only one hour ‘til you’re leaving this town.
[Verse 3]
My head is full of smoke, heart full of pain
That tender love is gone, gone up in flames
You should have shot me, baby, my life is done
You could have shot me, baby, shot me with a gun
I hear those sirens scream my name
I know my love is gone up in flames
[Bridge]
Smoked my last cigarette, sat in bed for a while.
Thought of your face, and that brought me a smile.
I fell for you, baby, like a bomb
Now my love’s gone up in flames
[Outro / Chorus]
Cigarette, cigarette,
Burning up time.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Watch the smoke climb.
Cigarette, cigarette,
Wasting away.
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down.
Only one hour ‘til you’re leaving this town.
My head is full of smoke, heart full of pain
That tender love is gone, gone up in flames
You should have shot me, baby, my life is done
You could have shot me, baby, shot me with a gun
I hear those sirens screamin’, screamin’ my name
I know my love is gone, gone up in flames
