Drifting Away (Original mix)

Country Like Nobody's Watchin'

We're like sheep without a shepherd, but we can't just sleep forever...

Sheep Without a Shepherd_

Burnin’ down 

(Verse 1) Hands down low, you pull me in tight, Drownin' in the smoke of a blood-red night, Your touch, a spark that sets me free, Crashin' like waves, takin’ over me.
(Pre-Chorus) Breathe me in, drag me deeper down, Rippin’ through my body like a hurricane sound, Every shiver, every sigh you steal, This ain’t a dream, it’s the realest feel.
(Chorus) Got a heatwave heartbeat, crashin' fast, No way out, babe, no lookin' back, Sweat-drunk kisses, bruised-up skin, Pull me closer, let the chaos spin. Got a heatwave heartbeat, no break, no rest, Lose myself with you pressed to my chest, Bite my lip, make me drown — Heatwave heartbeat, we're burnin' down.
(Verse 2) Rose gold whiskey on my tongue, You’re hummin’ dirty songs I ain't ever sung, Grippin’ my hips like you own my soul, Got me slippin’ under full control.
(Pre-Chorus) Breathe me in, drag me deeper down, Rippin’ through my body like a hurricane sound, Every shiver, every sigh you steal, This ain’t a dream, it’s the realest feel.
(Chorus) Got a heatwave heartbeat, crashin' fast, No way out, babe, no lookin' back, Sweat-drunk kisses, bruised-up skin, Pull me closer, let the chaos spin. Got a heatwave heartbeat, no break, no rest, Lose myself with you pressed to my chest, Bite my lip, make me drown — Heatwave heartbeat, we're burnin' down.
(Bridge) No mercy, no slowin' it down, Just a body rush, just the hunger sound, Take it higher till we’re beggin’ for air, Get drunk on touch, get lost out there.
(Chorus) Got a heatwave heartbeat, crashin' fast, No way out, babe, no lookin' back, Sweat-drunk kisses, bruised-up skin, Pull me closer, let the chaos spin. Got a heatwave heartbeat, no break, no rest, Lose myself with you pressed to my chest, Bite my lip, make me drown — Heatwave heartbeat, we're burnin' down.
(Outro) Ashes on the sheets, smoke on your breath, Whisper my name ‘til there’s nothin’ left, Shakin’ like thunder, skin to skin, Heatwave heartbeat — do it all again.

Burnin’ down (blues)

This song wrestles with regret and the relentless passage of time in the wake of a love that slipped away. In the verses the narrator agonizes over past mistakes, wondering if they could have done more or if it’s already too late, and finds their mind and heart burdened by memories of what was lost. The pre-chorus voices their uncertainty about reaching out and hopes that future wisdom might somehow bridge the gap.

The chorus drives home the central truth that time neither stops nor rewinds and the days and moments fallen behind are gone forever. Yet there remains a glimmer of hope that tomorrow or some future moment might heal old wounds, soften the silence, and set things right. The bridge reinforces this longing by acknowledging that although the past can’t be changed, the narrator clings to the hope that the journey ahead might one day lead their loved one back. The final chorus ties these threads together by admitting that while time won’t reverse, love endures even when circumstances lock the door, and the future still holds the power to carry them both through.
I love this one.....

Before Time Runs Out

ELECTRIC WHISPER

Maybe i'll know

⸻
That porch swing’s creakin’ like my heart last night,
You’re somewhere slippin’ off your dress in his headlights.
I poured your name in a half-drunk glass,
Watched it burn out just like the past.
Tried callin’ once… 
…but I just let it ring.
You always said I’d never change—
Well, I ain’t, I’m just drinkin’ through the pain.
Truth is, darlin’, you ain’t that hard to miss
When—
Cold ones get warmer when the fire burns blue,
And lonesome feels louder in a room built for two.
Yeah, I used to hate the silence, now I dance with the dark,
Since you tore up the bed and the strings on my heart.
You said I’d break, but girl, look who you are…
Guess cold ones get warmer—
When you’re fallin’ apart.
Found your bracelet in the truck bed sheets,
Right where you left your goodbye speech.
That perfume still fights through the smoke,
But the flame’s long dead and the glass just broke.
You always said I’d stay the same—
And maybe I did… just not in your name.
‘Cause baby—
Cold ones get warmer when the fire burns blue,
And lonesome feels louder in a room built for two.
Yeah, I used to hate the silence, now I dance with the dark,
Since you tore up the bed and the strings on my heart.
You said I’d break, but girl, look who you are…
Guess cold ones get warmer—
When you’re fallin’ apart.
Ain’t hate… it ain’t love… it’s just numb in the veins.
When the high wears off, only whiskey remains.
Cold ones get warmer when the fire burns blue,
And lonesome feels louder in a room built for two.
I used to beg the silence, now I welcome the dark,
You tore out the map, but I’m still drivin’ this heart.
You said I’d break—
—but I’m still playin’ my part…
Guess cold ones get warmer… when you fall apart.

Taboo Run - Love's Like The Wind

I wrote this song to raise awareness on addiction. There is so much stigma attached to addiction but the reality is very different. Having been through it myself I wanted to write something from the person who is going through its perspective. We are all human and everyone bleeds the same. Trauma creates butterfly effects in peoples lives that we shouldn’t judge. Addiction does not discriminate and can affect anyone.
