You and Me Together


This one still needs some work on the verses, but honey badger don't care



I don't know what I expected
and I don't know what I thought
since the say
you put your heart out on display
we have not run out of words to say
and you looked beautiful that day

Some say that I'm distracted
some say I'm stuck in a daze
give me a sign
our conversation lags behind
half of my mind is in another place
we have not run out of words to say

you spoke to me
and suddenly
I began to see
you and me together
you and me together

Love's not what we wanted
cuz breakups suck... berakups suck
so we were friends
for about 2 hours then we realized
friends don't talk this way
we have not run out of words to say

you spoke to me
and suddenly
I began to see
you and me together
you and me together

Don't Try To Compare


Believe it or not, this song was originally written on a ukulele (and much happier). It was the first time I tried to make a song "catchy". Anyways, the description is in the video

You’re throwing fuel into a fire
But it’s not going to burn for you
I’m just an ember over here
Slowly fading
And suffocating

He doesn’t love you like I do
I can see it in his eyes
I’m much more concerned about yours
Your passive glances
Want to take chances

Don’t try to compare
Baby I can see
Him over there
Baby I can see
That you don’t trust me at all
That you don’t trust me at all

You don’t understand your own heart
My arms are open but they’re cold
Our love is permanent and real
You know the right thing
Is in the quicksand sinking

Don’t try to compare
Baby I can see
Him over there
Baby I can see
That you don’t trust me at all
That you don’t trust me at all

You and I


He looks her way
she senses something deeper than those men who act like children that
she's turned away
and now two drops 'o water 've made their way through a vast ocean
somehow, somewhere
has finally come today

She sends a smile
and it's hard to believe that what his friends told him is right because
it's been awhile
he silently rehearses but forgets as he walks over
then out of nowhere
he gets words to say,

"You and I should go somewhere
Close you're eyes- I'll take you there"
I just want to be
your possibility
So just take my hand

Time stands still
and hours of conversation show them both that they were wrong about
love being real
and it's so much better than those songs about atronomy
unlike you, the stars and moon are far away


"You and I should go somewhere
Close you're eyes- I'll take you there"
But I don't want to be
your liability

This Life Is


Another Redu. This is about the life-change that takes place for believers

Give Yourself Some Time

I wrote this over a year ago, and since then I've made some changes. The constant mouth movements are one of those changes.

The lyrics remind me of how prideful I am- like I earned my salvation by "thinking really hard". That's ridiculous! But regardless, here it's one of those songs that didn't disappear, and I still play it from time to time
