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.

Hope Stops Breathing

Verse: C F G C
Chorus: C F Dm G C F G C
Bridge: C Dm G C
​

sometimes you gotta let go of the good
to make a little room for a little great
sometimes you gotta do what you know you should
let the hope just suffocate
 
when the hope stops breathing
maybe i’ll stop believing
in a love that won’t come to pass
when the hope starts dying
maybe i’ll stop trying
to turn fiction into fact

 
i always seem to choose
metaphor over reality
but just this once i will refuse
and say i loved you
quite literally
 
there was peace outside your window tonight
but i drew the shade babe, and stayed
so the hope stays alive
and i try with all my might
to get you to come outside with me and play
