Artistically, I am primarily a guitarist and songwriter. I have written about 16 original songs having recorded 12 of them. One of the songs I have in my repertoire was cowritten with a songwriter based in Delaware, Brian Bunnel. We collaborated through a site called Quarterlife.com. He provided the lyrics while I supplied the music. I believe that the more exposure I get the more chances I have for my music to make it. And in the off chance it doesn't happen, I can always fall back on songwriting and be a ghostwriter for other musicians who have the power to break through in the music industry. However, since I believe that my mind is a powerfully positive tool I believe in myself as others do believe in me that I can make it.

Story behind the song
I tried starting a band with a girl I met in my art class. She was seeing some loser who treated her like shit. He happened to be the lead guitarist of our shortlived band. After observing their relationship, I concluded that it wouldn't last very long because the "honeymoon" phase of their relationship had ended and it was becoming Stale.
Lyrics
Whatever happened to the way we felt before It seems that alls forgiven but there's still the stench of remorse There's no one left to blame for this sad old game we play We walk in our own shadows, where we end up know one knows. Chorus Still are we like stale old bread We need some air, we need some air Let's leave this place with no regrets If we dare, oh if we dare You looked upon me with distortion in your smile And I can tell quite frankly that it isn't quite your style I'm lost here in the clouds with no hope of coming down I'm stuck here in the crowds, so I've got to leave this town Chorus Bridge Maybe we'll meet again someday I'll find you in my own special way Until then I bid farewell In our memories we shall dwell For now, I say GOODBYE Chorus
