LYRICS

People often ask where they can find lyrics, so I compiled 10+ years worth of songs into one location! I even included some of the tunes I consider to be hot garbage clunkers, just for the fun of documenting the journey. If you'd like to support my songwriting, please download my music on iTunes, add songs to your Spotify Playlists, subscribe to my Youtube channel, and/or purchase physical copies of CDs wherever possible. These contributions help me sustain my career as an independent artist.

Crickets

Lyrics:
1. i've cried onto a casket
i've seen the scenes and seasons change
i've spread my share of ashes
over the ocean and down the drain
i spilled on you my secrets
i drew upon you all my dreams
each night listening to crickets
sing their song til morning

CH:
ooooh...

2. mother nature's coming at me
speeding down a westbound track
hanging out a boxcar swinging
a slow motion baseball bat
my highest hopes for you just showed up
crashing the party of my guard
and i know whatever goes up
is coming down, baby, twice as hard

CH

3. i'm angry at my worst
i'm struggling at my best
to find words to fit this verse
for what's happening in my chest
of course i should have seen this coming
i should have never picked your name
like a River, life keeps running
washing away what never came

Everything But Loving You

8/3/2020

0 Comments

 
1. i don't wanna do the dishes
i don't wanna sweep the floor
i don't wanna be ambitious anymore
you're the only good news
walking in and out the door
so i'm thinking that i could use
a new plan moving forward

CH
i wanna quit everything but loving you
it's the only thing that i wanna do
cause i'm so good at it
makes me wanna quit
i wanna quit everything but loving you
cause i, i don't have a fucking clue
how to save the world
but i can love my girl
so i'm gonna quit everything but loving you
yes i'm gonna quit everything but loving you

2. i'm not thinking about tomorrow 
barely thinking about today
i just wanna keep the sorrow 
and the anger and worry at bay
i'm so thankful for my baby
she always knows what to say
so here's to being lazy 
and letting love lead the way

The Rotten Parts

6/9/2020

0 Comments

 
1. don't think too much, too soon
when it's too little, too late
don't suck the air from the room
while someone else suffocates

imagine a mile in the shoes
that some devil keeps lacing you in
who used god as an excuse
to behave and to say what's less than human

2. don't tell the rain it's dry
don't tell the sun it's hot
don't point, don't lie, don't patronize
it won't erase all the rotten parts you got

imagine centuries in the skin
that some thief keeps taking you in
who finds new ways of legislating
for the hate of your melanin
for the guilt of their wrong-doing
for the envy of your elegance
for the safety of their dominance
for the trembling fear of your perserverance
for the crazy high of arrogance
for the lazy love of ignorance
for the hate of your melanin
​for the hate of your melanin

1. i lose i lose
i get it i lose
Anything i love
i know enough to tell ya
i’m gonna lose it
i’m gonna lose it
i bruise i bruise
i’ve sensitive skin
it pinches like a peach
each time that you touch me
you bruise it
you bruise it

CH
look at all this lemonade i made babe
out of every lemon i’ve been given
take a picture of me diving in the pitcher
aint it funny how drowning looks like swimming
ain’t it funny how dying looks like living

2. i cry i cry
you know that i cry
my eyes never dry
heart heavy with sighs
i’m crying
i try i try but i can
barely get by
slowed to a crawl
get up and fall, i’m never flying
but i keep tryin

I Wish You Were Alive

5/8/2020

0 Comments

 
1. every single night
you're the last thing on my mind
no use counting sheep
it's just you and me
and the memories i keep
every day i wake
mother farther away
no use wondering why
it's just you and me
and the longest wave goodbye

CH
the story didn't end
like i wanted it to 
and i can't find a pen
to save your life
it hurts to pretend
anything would be different
if you were alive
i still wish you were alive


2. every time i breathe
you're the lungs in me
no use holding the inhale
it's still you and me
hanging crooked on the nail

Money Stacks and Body Bags

4/18/2020

0 Comments

 
1. we're shitting bricks
we're spitting mad
we're restless and exhausted
we're grateful but so sad
you worship money
cash is your church
and your god's the easter bunny
if rent's due on the first

CH
you're corrupt just look at the destruction
you never gave a fuck about us
don't you come back no more
hit the road jack
put your money stacks
 in the body bags
don't ya come back no more


2. i post my privileged protest
from the unemployment line
do you like my brand new soapbox
i got it on amazon prime
contagious convenience
continuous corporate news
freedom turns to greed cause
if you're poor or your brown
you don't get to choose

CH

br. 
maybe it's too late and
we got it cause we asked for it
baby here's your hell in a 
trump-branded casket
or maybe we are right on time
with fresh air to breathe
and we'll build something much better
if you just fucking leave

Tapers Off (Taylor Swift Shake it Off Covid Parody)

4/17/2020

0 Comments

 
1. since shelter in place
got nothing in the bank
stopped touching my face (mmm),
and stay six feet away (mmm)
i take my time with tasks
all my friends are sewing masks
my plans all got replaced
with sanitizing every space
but i keep on clinging
to my musical upbringing
hoping all this singing in your screen
will help it be alright

CH
we just gotta put each other first
and stay at home so it don’t get any worse
keep thanking all the folks who are hard at work so it tapers off tapers off
don’t spend all your time getting mad on twitter
pick up a pen and write your senator
or pop your head in on a struggling neighbor
til it tapers off tapers off


2. i never miss a Zoom,
i sterilized my broom
but sometimes the doom and gloom (mmm) keeps me stuck inside my room (mmm)
you’re not in this alone
just make the moves up as you go
be good to folks you know
and even the ones you don’t
but just remember
you’re your own defender
not just in November
people have the power
to make everything alright

Jealous of You

3/17/2020

0 Comments

 
i don't like to compare
but the grass looks greener over there
i work hard, you do too
but what we both wanted only came to you

and i'm sending you all my well wishes
but the truth is, i'm jealous of you
yeah i'm jealous of you
yeah i'm jealous of you


i try not to be sad
just be grateful for all the things i have
i don't like to say it out loud
these green eyes don't make me proud

chorus

i don't like to waste my time
picking sour grapes from the vine
just keep it moving it's all i can do
just wish i wasn't so jealous of you
