​“Lifeline (always you Aubree)”
completed on 7.10.24

​i’ll keep looking for flowers 
if you keep your eyes on the clouds
i’ll always help you reach for the stars
if only to show you this life’s beauty

​i’ll do anything to help you
it’s easy to explain why
’cause this life is darker when you’re away
the sun ​fades behind the clouds without you

that smile ​that lights up my face
is always harder to find without you
and the second hand ​always slows
whenever​ i’m not with you

​not sure when i can say this
but i hate every second without you 
’cause ​i dream up clever distractions 
but they ​never come close to you

​’cause ​my future’s always brighter 
on days I spend with you
memories on my phone ​will​ never do
you are the only thing that’s true

​and I’ll keep treading water 
i’ll be the boat to keep you afloat 
since you, I no longer need 
anything ​else supporting me

​even when the ground ahead​’s shaking
i’ll always be your guide
always be by your side
so you’ll never feel alone

“Mirrors (reflections pt. 1)”
completed on 4.25.24


i stare blAnkly through every mirror
’cause i can’t see the trUth anymore
eyes lost in the cracks and imperfections
until i can’t help but Believe what i see

the teaRs running down my face
are the only thing rEminding me i’m alive
’cause nothing’s worse than feeling numb
so i’ll let my Emotions keep cutting me apart


they say don’t believe everything You see
but it’s harder to dOubt when yoU never hear
Anyone speak up defending me
stuck with the noise inside my head


BRIDGE
CHORUS

i used to Rely on mirrors to help them see
but that’s skin-deEp so no one ever sees
what truly matters to Me
like the things that help me feel free


Just know, mirrors don’t always reflect the truth
when you lose your faith and only feel doubt
trust the light you see in my eyes
’cause the flame when i see you’ll never wane

BRIDGE
all i could see was shattered glass
until You saved me from my past


CHORUS
it took your love to remind me
smoke & mirrors only reflect the past
you make my cracks and imperfections
refract the most stunning LIGHT

“The Ledge”
written on 11.13.22

i want you to know
life will give you doubts
but no matter what life throws in your way
my love for you will always stay

when you face dark times
feel like your world is crumbling/ending
i’m here to light the way
to guide you through the fray

CHORUS:
when life pulls the rug from under your feet
know it can’t sweep you off your feet
there’s nothing you can’t defeat
i’m always here so you won’t fall
protect you above all

from the hope of each new day
to the sunset of those old dreams
to the stars lighting your night
i’ll help you burn bright

our feet in stride
your hand wrapped in mine
nothing in this world i won’t do
nothing i won’t help you through

if you ever find yourself sliding
know i’m already running after you
jump off any ledge to help you
so you never feel blue

“Hope”
written on 10.2.2022

there’s a storm brewing inside your head
sadness is all you see ahead
the downpour of the rain
comes directly from your pain
stronger than a hurricane

i’d do anything so you don’t feel sad
left love notes on your notepad
wish i could help you see
everything i know you could be
your beauty always brings me to a knee

you’ve given my life so much hope
helped me when i couldn’t cope
wish i could do the same
place all your pain into a flame
show you the gorgeous woman you became

open up the vault to your heart
i’ll show you a new start
there’s things, like time, i can’t steal
but i can help you heal
show you a love that’s real

i don’t care the crime
i’d do anything to buy us time
steal the heartache from your heart
’cause we’re better together than apart
we’re better together than apart…

“Tears Like Sleet”
completed on 12.21.18

i caught up with you
in the middle of your journey
feels like a billion years
as you replay everything in your mind

i can tell by the creases on your brow
there’s some things you need help with right now
everything in life out of tune
your mind spinning like a typhoon

<chorus>
i’ll help you, my friend
lost under the dim light of a pale moon
find the blaze of our bright sun
that lights a new path for you

tears like sleet
while you’re speeding down a dead end
slipping and sliding
about to lose control

you don’t want to reach out
for help, but i’ll grab your hand
and pull you up
be an anchor to help you stand

i’ll throw you a rope
a lifeline to escape
your pain, the weight
of feeling incomplete

<bridge>
to a brand new view
’til you learn to cope
to a brand new hope
away from that tightrope

“Riptide”
completed on 7.29.17

a soul worn out
jumping through life’s hoops
forging through a quicksand
only to sink deeper

countless hours lighting a wick
stacks of matches piling up
a flame that only flickers and fades
an endless crusade

wipe away the sweat
breathe in and out
an endless clock that’s punched in
more than punched out

brush away the chaos
while i search for hope
no time to rest in the shade
sunburned looking for the truth

fighting with a riptide
footprints of progress washed away
the fear of fatigue
the need to be achieve

forging against a riptide
footprints of progress that can’t be swept away
the need to succeed
overcoming everything

stifled by the stale air
inhale, the need for something more
i know there’s something there
just beyond the shore

“I Will Get Back To You”
written on 3.30.17

and you got swept away
didn’t know what to do or say
but now i’ve found my oars
to finally set sail back to the shores

this will be quite the journey
not something i can do alone
but this time i’ve found the one
who can help me get it done
she’s the wind feeding my sails

i still have cracks throughout my hull
the result of all my grieving
but this time i’m not sinking
i’ve found the hope in my thinking

you built the compass inside me
taught me how to navigate the sea
you gave me the strength to chart the course
through all life’s storms and force
no waves to keep me from feeling free

and i know where you are headed
’cause you believed fearlessly
i’ll ride the waves through all life’s struggles
leaving behind all my troubles
