Circles 03:49
So longingly I wish that I could shed my skin, I itch to feel the air again And I don't feel as though I fit myself very well anymore ya know I've been waiting for the month of June when I could smell the flowers now if I really wanted to I'm like a slowly inflated balloon But I'll float away soon, I'll float away soon La la la.... I wish it was as simple as a simple song and dance la la la la la For I would know the further steps to take when you reach out your hands Please understand where I stand Another bother for the one that I adore I can't promise you everything we had before But I'll try and I'll hope and I'll pray and I'll wish You've stripped my heart down to a skeleton First handedly darlin I've never seen that done before Rosey skinned, confound I hit the ground again, confound I was for sure Oh I have hidden away my own box of resentments Right next to the gasoline and matches Oh darlin where I always plan to burn them but I haven't found the time Maybe the fault is mine Circles, circles, circles, circles Spun around in circles, circles, circles, circles La la la dizzying circles Only the children like to spin around in circles

Garden 04:26
Yellow daffodil tell me when you first began to wilt and what keeps you still as the breeze blows, there's been a lack o sunshine I suppose And sister rose why you look so down? With your roots so firmly planted in the ground Has the soil spoiled ridden with sadness Can I regrow the garden I have worked for all these years? When all my flowers are crying please save us with sunshine but I can't stop crying myself over lost time Orchid, orchid flower of my being... Tell me what has hindered you from singing and swinging and swaying and playing like you do This somber sour hue is so unlike you And daisy, baby tell me where your smile has gone lately Have the stormy clouds dampened your style dear? Can I regrow the garden I have worked for all my years when all my flowers are crying please save us with sunshine but I can't stop crying myself over lost time La la la la la la la la..... Has the soil spoiled, ridden with sadness, anger, regret and pain, it's all the same rain and its drowning my beautiful flowers again... Can I regrow the garden I have worked for all these years? When all my flowers are crying please save us with sunshine... But I can't stop crying myself over lost time

Clouds 03:54
We are all empty people struggling to fill the space Some stay grounded by religion, others are lifted by their faith See the men with all their money, see their beautiful wives Notice the bars that confine them, see their intricate disguise You won't find me You won't find me there When I'm empty I'm as light as air, up in the clouds you'll find me there We are mostly happy people We are all able to hate But only you can jail your own mind It's your world to destroy or create And you've pushed me against my door I feel your breath on my neck I can barely grasp the concept that I may never see you again And you won't find me You won't find me there When I'm empty Im as light as air Up in the clouds you'll find me there

about

This is my first concept E.P. entitled “Beginning”!! This has been the most wonderful project. I’ve had the opportunity to work with incredibly talented people and I couldn’t be more proud of how well this all came together and how much fun it has been! A HUGE thank you extends to all those involved! An extra special thank you to my now close friend Brian Phillips, he really brought this project to life. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING!!
