about

A reworking of the solo acoustic song from my debut album, featuring keys from John Calvin Abney and bass from David Adamiak

lyrics

I thought you were dead
You were certainly dead to me
I knew they hadn’t caught you
But did they ever stop you?

What you did to me could be forgiven
You're only human, just like me
And my damage wasn't fatal
So I got where I needed to be

But I don't know about the others
I hear they didn't start the same
And that damage was a puzzle to them
Somehow still you kept your name

I thought you were dead
You were certainly dead to me
I knew they hadn’t caught you
But did they ever stop you?

I was long gone but not absolved
I shut it down and I moved on
I healed my wounds and I walled the pain
Did you carry on unrestrained?
Am I guilty of the same?

I thought you were dead
You were certainly dead to me
I knew they hadn’t caught you
But did they ever stop you?

Now I see people praising you
As their favorite and a legend
Memories are untarnished
Where does that leave the truth?

I thought you were dead
You were certainly dead to me
I knew they hadn’t caught you
But did they ever stop you?

Went in the studio with a bunch of talented strangers in May 2021 to record some demos and came out with a full album that tells my story in a way I could never have dreamed possible. ... more
