Space Between Us This is the space between, the space between You and I need the space between… Feel thin, words left unsaid See thru images, the pictures in my head Search for traces of trust Knowing there’s something wrong with us This is the space between, the space between You and I need the space between This is the space between, the space between You and I need the space… Between ends that are dead Fueling hunger, craving left unfed Slipping out of my sight Reflecting shadows in the light and This is the space between, the space between You and I need the space between This is the space between, the space between You and I need the space between… Promises fade, in the space between Promises fade, in the space between

Jealousy Type Song Something in your eyes, I can’t stand it When you look at me so candid You seemed like a good idea at the time The way you gravitated towards her Holding your breath moments after She seemed like a good idea at the time I felt you, now you’re gone Feels like it’s taken me so long I found you, something’s wrong This is a jealousy type song Looking, lusting in my direction Boiling, aching til it’s done I seemed like a good idea at the time Hatred betrays, makes you so different Love to jealous, so not what I meant This seemed like a good idea at the time But more raw than that I felt you, now you’re gone Feels like it’s taken me so long I found you, something’s wrong This is a jealousy type song I felt you, now you’re gone Feels like it’s taken me so long I found you, something’s wrong This is a jealousy type song More raw than that

Fear & Bottle Caps I could see a year ago, you would end up here It’s like watching ‘Ground Hog Day’, through a bottle of beer I hate this for you, you hate it as well Thought it would be one drink now swimming in hell Drinking is your mistress, she confronts and she consoles Helps you forget for a moment Black out to black out turns into a black hole The bottle is empty and so are you Always tryin’ to fill up on things you can’t undo Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces that last Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces… Trade pleasure for pain, then pleasure for numbness Trade now for yesterday, standing at the edge of the abyss Hiding in a hole you dug with fear and bottle caps One drink to the next to the next One or the last still full on lapse You can change it, for the moment you will Climbing, scratching and clawing Then down again, Jack and Jill The fear of failing lives alone inside your head Everyone else expecting, that’s how the monster gets fed Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces that last Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces… Stand up, stand up take a deep breath The voice of expectation is choking you to death Doing what you always have done, has you here and so undone The crossroad is ahead, waiting for a right choice The only sound to decide is the sound of your own voice Even at a whisper you hear it in your head Change only isn’t scary when the other choice is dead Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces that last Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces that last Afraid of the future, missing ghosts from the past Crave one peaceful moment, but it’s just the pieces that last

OK, So Listen Here’s the deal, you really hurt my feelings I’m done, I’m thru Watching you hurt the people I love Taking advantage over and over Are you the only one who matters Stuff and things that keep you up at night Laying awake until the morning light Nothing you say or do can make it right We’re gonna fight I keep telling myself it’s not my life You have to make your own way Are you alive or are you dead Such a crazy place so numb Disappearing over and over Are you the only one who matters Stuff and things that keep you up at night Laying awake until the morning light Nothing you say or do can make it right We’re gonna fight I keep telling myself it’s not my life You have to make your own way This pain is about YOU.

Hands 03:05
Hands I keep both hands in my pockets Every time I’m next to you I mean to do the right thing Sometimes it’s so hard to do All it ever takes is a glance Your smile just breaks me in half You know what you’re doing Hidden behind a nervous laugh In another time, in another place Hands in your hair, hands on my face Your hands on my neck Makes me shake inside Come a little closer Don’t you try to hide All of these goose bumps Like nothing I ever knew I don’t know where we are But I’m glad to be here with you In another time, in another place Hands in your hair, hands on my face You can keep your hands in my pockets Every time you’re next to me I’m not asking you to changer who you are I’m just asking you to be Now is the time, now is the place Hands in your hair, hands on my face

K.A.N.E. 03:05
K.A.N.E You know your own strength Deep within, calling our your name Rise up take your place Your life to reclaim Stronger, you’re stronger Stronger, you’re stronger You know your own strength Pushing forward, farther every day Stand up move ahead Weakness soon will fade Stronger, you’re stronger Stronger, you’re stronger Stronger, you’re stronger Stronger, you’re stronger

Out 04:22
Out Lead to believe the lies were “Truth” Took advantage of my youth Full on fake out Comfort taken all the way Perfect words always to say Need to break out Oh the “Light” it draws you near Never mind the cult of fear Turn and shake out Now I see So much clearer Left to be Who’s in the mirror All this time Wasted, wasted Fallen, fallen from grace Rearrange to find my space Fallen, fallen from grace Settled in I’ve found my place Now I see So much clearer Left to be Who’s in the mirror All this time Wasted, wasted

There Are No Words Sitting on pins and pine needles Driving through the cemetery There are no words It’s surreal, and it’s in my face All at once, giving chase Time has come Just begun Walking the rust colored carpet Recurring dream passes by There are no words It’s surreal, and it’s in my face All at once, giving chase Time has come Just begun Gripping faded memories Only serves to indulge What could, should, would have been Let go It’s surreal, and it’s in my face All at once, giving chase Time has come Just begun

Truly Jaded 05:18
Truly Jaded Hereditary, heart of hate Know no better manipulate Hate the man hate his child Manage his life control his wild False love manipulates Open arms used as bait Love is not patient nor is it kind. Always a reason manage your mind Hurt is cultivated, love is truly hated You are saturated, I am truly jaded Starve a fever feed a cold heart Your plan for the future your plan from the start Pied piper of deaf kids Work a little harder proud of what you did Open wounds filled with fault Nurse them to health fill them with salt Heart on a string pulled like a kite So many wrongs can't make any rights Hurt is cultivated, love is truly hated You are saturated, I am truly jaded Hate the sinner love the sin Righteous reason pull the pin Yanking wildly on my last nerve Stabbing blindly at blind curves You'd do anything to get back control I see through it now it's taken it's toll I'll blow it up I'm walking away You are the one who taught me this way Hurt is cultivated, love is truly hated You are saturated, I am truly jaded

Sunshine On The Floor Little girl, sitting on the floor Trying to pick up sunshine Like so many times before Out of reach, warm upon my face Mama picks me up, wrapped in her embrace Memories of what used to be So sweet, the innocence of childhood Not a care in the world, tried to be a good…girl Guitar case, open on the floor Snapshot of the future Eager to explore Within reach, dreams that I would chase Daddy picks me up, wrapped in his embrace Memories of what used to be So sweet, the innocence of childhood Not a care in the world, tried to be a good…girl

about

Imperfections are a beautiful part of being human. As a perfectionist, acceptance of that concept is something I consciously strive to achieve. This album has many imperfections that have purposely been left in it as an exercise to that end. I hope you enjoy listening to this deeply personal project as much as I enjoyed the process of creating it. I am eternally grateful to be surrounded by human beings who support, encourage, uplift and love me.

You all know who you are.

Much love…
