FINDING MYSELF IN “ONLY ME”
Hey there, friends and fellow travelers! I’m thrilled to share my latest track, “Only Me,” with you, coming out on August 9th across all major streaming platforms, including Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, and Amazon. This song is a deeply personal journey, inspired by those quiet moments of reflection that we all face at some point in our lives.
A PERSONAL JOURNEY OF REFLECTION
“Only Me” was born out of a late-night motel stay, where I found myself alone with my thoughts, reflecting on the twists and turns of my life. The track captures the essence of solitude and the longing for self-discovery. The lyrics are a snapshot of my own journey, exploring themes of loneliness, resilience, and the search for identity. Imagine sitting in that dimly lit room, staring at the cracked mirror, where every word and melody is a step toward understanding who you truly are.
THE MUSIC THAT SPEAKS
Musically, “Only Me” blends the sounds of Americana and Folk Rock, creating a simple yet powerful backdrop for the story I wanted to tell. The acoustic guitars and heartfelt lyrics evoke a sense of vulnerability, drawing on influences from artists like Counting Crows and Radiohead. It’s a sound that resonates with me deeply, and I hope it will with you too.
CONNECTING THROUGH MUSIC
This song is not just about me—it’s about all of us. It’s an invitation to pause, reflect, and embrace the complexities of life. I wrote it to capture those universal feelings of love, loss, and the endless quest to find ourselves. I hope “Only Me” offers a moment of connection, helping you navigate your own path.
CELEBRATING THIS RELEASE
As “Only Me” makes its way into the world, I want to invite you to join me in this journey of reflection and growth. Let the song remind you that even in moments of solitude, there is strength and hope for a brighter future. Thank you for being part of my musical journey. Your support means everything to me, and I can’t wait to hear how this song resonates with you.
Here’s to finding meaning in the shadows and letting the music guide us forward. Thank you for listening, and let’s continue exploring this path together.

Lyrics
ONLY ME
Verse 1
Verse 1 C Em F G
Dirt cheap motel at the side of the road
Tiny tv hangs high up the wall
And in the minibar the options are pretty small
Canned Jack’n Coke, beer, and tequila no cinnamon or salt
F G G F# F
This place surely has seen some better days
G
The TV magazine is from 20 18.
Chorus 1 Mister and Missus Jones? But no it’s only me
Ten green bottles knocked me off of my feet
And a sticker on the toilet seat reads, “Land of the Free”
Mister and Missus Jones, but no, it’s only me
Verse 2 And In the cracked mirror stares a shattered man
An unshaved face, I did the best I possibly can
I gave all I could, but all good things must end
I just wanna be loved for the man that I am
These eyes surely have seen some better days
Will they be smiling in 20 28
Chorus 2 Mister and Missus Jones, but no it’s only me
Alone in a double bed room, lies a naked freak
From the nightstand radio, Dylan sings “I shall be free”
Mister and Missus Jones, but no, it’s only me
Bridge B7
You said I should leave the house,
Em
I screamed, I need to get out
F G G7
We know this ain’t working no more
Chorus 3 Mister and Misses, but no it’s only me
Alone in a double bed room, windows out to the street
and from a stone throw away, the neon sign blinks vacancy
Mister and Misses Jones, but no, it’s only me
