Lyrics and melody producer, singer/songwriter. Looking for collaboration with other artists.
I'm essentially a solo artist...lyric writer, melody creator, who's driving ambition is always to create a meaningful song. I use bits and pieces of personal experience....like all writers, but mix in current events and important issues of the day to influence my "stories"

Story behind the song
One man's frantic search into himself, and desperate need to understand what went wrong in his relationship. What must he change inside or out.
Lyrics
I think I'll get myself a tattoo. I guess that's the best thing to do. An indelible impression, a lasting expression, a permanent memory of you. I'll put it right there in my brain. No visible signs of my pain. No ink on my arm, no needles to harm, the outside of me that you can ALL see. I might get a nose ring or three. And attach one to an earlobe on me. A constant reminder of my search to find her that ring on her finger...that's not there anymore. Then maybe I'll color my hair. A statement that now I don't care. I could make it RED...an angry red head, but BLUE makes more sense now that I'm feeling cool. I know I'm just a sentimental fool. A victim of my passions that rule....each waking moment, my dreams just postpone it...the reality that it's time to move on.....AGAIN. (Instrumental Interlude) I think I'll get myself a tattoo. I guess that's the best thing to do. An indelible impression, a lasting expression, a permanent memory of you. I'll put it right there in my brain. No visible signs of my pain. No ink on my arm, no needles to harm, the outside of me that you can all see. (Instrumental fade)
