(verse 1)
One white pill
a Christmas gift he made
tucked away in a letter
to keep it safe
Floating in like snow
the phone calls and drop-bys
shoveling the powder
in nice clean lines

(chorus)
and I shouldn't
and I couldn't right now
what I wouldn't give for another release
a countdown

(verse 2)
One book of songs
a Christmas gift he gave
with a goodbye letter 
in a box sealed with tape
and you wanted to sing for me
and you wanted to buy me drinks

(chorus)
Well I think that you shouldn't
and you couldn't right now
what you wouldn't give for another release
a countdown

(bridge)
10, 9, 8.. All I really wanted was a chance to relate
I'm addicted to the fix from you
Then I'm running, now I'm running, see me running away

(chorus)
We shouldn't
and we couldn't right now
What we wouldn't give for another release (x2)

Music Lover... Amateur Composer and Song Writer... Very Rough Interpreter of my own stuff... 
I see my songs as rough pieces that one day someone with proper talent may be interested in making it worth listening to :) 

BIO:

In the summer right before his senior year of high school, Stephen bought his first guitar at a local pawn shop in hopes of starting a band with a friend. Making more noise than actual music, none of them knew how to play instruments.  The short-lived band phase ended, and Stephen continued on his own path to pursue his love for music. Delving straight into songwriting that first year, Stephen spent countless hours crafting lyrics, melodies, and arrangements. His songs were initially recorded on a cheap computer microphone with basic multitrack software.  As his craft quickly developed, Stephen began writing and self-producing marketable songs at a professional level.

He describes himself first and foremost as a songwriter; second, a producer/mixing & mastering engineer, and recording artist, third.  He has had over a dozen different singers and artists perform his songs, has co-written with dozens of songwriters, and has produced, mixed, and mastered music of various artists and bands in a variety of genres. To date, Stephen has written and produced over 100 commercial songs with six self-studio albums and continues to hone in on his craft as a songwriter, producer, artist, and mixing/mastering engineer.
