And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

You really cared, if they really liked you
You really cared, to be with them
You really cared, but it did not happen
You really cared, but you did not win

You thought they were a friend
You thought they were kind
You thought they would care
But your thought was not right

They used you when they could
They used you in spite
They used you when they could
They used you, every night

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

Some people come in
When you least expect it
Some people come in
And leave out the exit

You give all your heart
You give all your mind
You give all your hope
You give one at a time

Now it is time
Now it is time

Stop giving your power
Stop giving your mind
It's time you win
It's time you shine

Stop giving your love
Stop giving your heart
Your dreams make you
Your dreams are life

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

They did it for their life
They did it for themselves
They did it for selfish reasons
They did it because

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

They did it for their life
They did it for themselves
They did it for selfish reasons
They did it because

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

And so, they moved on
They lacked control, no empathy
They were not right, not right

Selfish People

It fell apart
For good reason
It fell apart
It was my season

For the life to tumble
For the life to fall
For the life I dreamt
For the life I called

Me
But, it wasn't me
It was to rot for
Someone I was not

I lived a life
For someone I thought
Cared for my dreams
Cared for my loss

I started to build it back up
When someone cared
When someone loved
When someone was there

They came into my life
It was great 
They came into my life
I'm back to the same

Old self
Old soul
Old dreams
Old gold

It's time, it's time
To take back what is mine
It's time, it's time

Relax
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold
Relax
It's my gold

Rebuilding Life

u are not your feelings, you are also not youre mistakes

Thank you for sticking with me and listening to my songs every day. I notice the ones who show up, the ones who keep coming back, the ones who let my music into their life. I hope these songs have given you as much strength and peace as they’ve given me. I write them to lift the soul and the spirit, because in these times we need every bit of light we can get.

The only thing I can tell you is this. Never give up on yourself. If you want something, you have to work for it, and sometimes you have to work hard as shit to get anywhere. But I believe in you. I believe you will reach that first goal on your journey in this life. And when you do, don’t stop. Keep going. There is always another level waiting for you.

In the meantime, I have a whole universe of musical projects you can explore. If any of them speak to you, let me know. Welcome to the way my mind works.

Welcome to my world.

Cheers!
