HOLA MEXICO
Every year I go to a little beach town on the southern edge of the Pacific coast of Mexico.
Every year, I can’t wait to leave the cold and rain and put my toes in the sand and get a drink in my hand. Hola Mexico.

Sparks
Hopefully, all of us, every last one of us, have had the rush of a first love.
It’s place in our lives and hearts is undeniable. It’s power is unequaled. It’s always a spark that lights the flame.

We Come From Small Towns
The American small town is the heart and soul of almost all Americans.
As recent as the early 20th century 80% of all American’s lived on farms and in small towns in every corner of the country.
In the past few years, it seems to me that we are all too ready to dismiss our own roots, our small town values. This song is an upbeat ode to our own small town roots.

A Million Little Pieces
It’s happening everywhere you look.
In every school, small town, big city, every workplace. It crosses all socio-economic classes. It affects the young, the old, black, white and all colors and classes in between.
Personally, I have watched many of my closest friends try to raise kids who can’t get their feet underneath themselves. Drugs, mental health and more, have had them fall into cracks and crevices where they just can’t return from.

Slow It Down
Love. It comes in many speeds, fast love, slow love, quick love, love that’s over in a minute and a love that lasts forever.
This is a love song for someone that I care for and is someone whose love is best when it’s taken slow. For YJD.

Bad Seed
Some people are just born a bad seed.
Raised right, raised wrong, it doesn’t seem to matter.
A Bad Seed, unable to take root, to grow, to flourish. Instead they just blow around.

My Name is Trouble
In the darkest reaches our heart resides that bad-ass we all fear and worship.
Be it Billy the Kid, John Dillinger, Al Capone or the modern day mavens of mayhem. We all have a secret fascination for trouble.

Brother Down
I believe in the power of friendship. As a lyricist I have always found great company and inspiration from my many friends. I like to write about the vignettes of their lives.
In my group of friends there are a few key brothers who have been my lifelong friends, my running buddies, my confidantes.
One of the best was my friend Brian Whitmore. He passed too soon and left me with too many unspoken conversations. I am still angry. I will always miss him. Fuck Cancer.

Once in a While
Love is a hard thing for me. Maybe it’s a hard thing for everyone. I don’t really know.
The real mystery is how the tentacles of a love that’s ended can stay with us and re-awaken in us from time to time. They are not always there, but certainly, once in a while, they are.

For Better or Worse
This song was written in response to a situation that a friend of ours had.
She was in an abusive relationship and was finding it near impossible to leave. She finally did.
To all those locked into an abusive struggle that they can not pull themselves from. This is for them.

Let It Rain
It seems to me at this point in our lives, a day or a week does not go by without us losing someone.
An acquaintance, a friend a loved one.
The loneliness and sadness that appears out of nowhere is unlike anything we will experience anywhere or at any time in our lives.
Here’s to those who’s hearts have been broken.

This WAs Me, This WAs You
A look back on our first real love.
Sometimes, those first loves never quite get out of our head or out from under our skin. We find ourselves driving past our old haunts and remembering those old wants.

Blue Collar Broke
The disappearance of the American middle-class is undeniable. What was once the heart of the American economy, the heart of the community and the heart of our lives is now, nearly no more.

Sex. It’s the grease for the wheels of life.
This is just one way sexual way to consider how to grease those wheels.

Dear Susan
Some relationships are just toxic, a trip down the rabbit-hole to nowhere.
Sometimes getting out of those relationships is as much hard work as it was to get into them. Here’s to “saying goodbye”.
