Resolving Conflicts 03:41
lyrics

Her voice sounded like a thin strand of hard sugar, sweet but ready to crack. He thought if he walked gently over the world, the world would walk gently over him. Would the world walk gently?

Remade by Fire 03:59
lyrics
buy track
The voice told her she would not be harmed, but remade for the finer. Take a risk it said, don't play it safe, so she took a step closer to the fire. Will the fire hurt? Will it waste away? Be remade for the finer? Remade for the finer. She endures what she can't express through teared up eyes, like the ones who also wept. Will the fire hurt? Will it waste away? Be remade for the finer? And so, it was time to go, afraid but brave, she took a step closer to the fire. Melted, molded, melted, molded, melted, remade.

Rest, Let the Current Carry 03:04
lyrics
buy track
Letting go, let go. Will you take them off, touch your toes to the water. Let the current carry all that trouble. Will you take them off, touch your toes to the water. Let the current carry all that trouble. Slowly drifting to the end of the ocean, forever gone. Slowly drifting to the end of the ocean, forever gone. She took off her shoes and touched her toes to the water. Letting go drifting down, letting go drifting down, letting go let go. She took off her shoes and touched her toes to the water. Letting go drifting down, letting go drifting down, letting go, let go. Letting go, let go. Letting go, let go.

about

The track "Resolving Conflicts" was written during the time our country had a government shut down. I felt very angry at our leadership and sad for the people who were going without food stamps and paychecks. Often times I see injustice in the world. I'm unsure how to respond so I turn to music. The track "Remade by Fire" is a personal story of how I would like to step outside of my comforts and purposely put myself in discomfort in order to be of service to others. Finally, "Rest, Let the Current Carry" was a song that came to me as I visited a Park in Wisconsin. It was a gentle reminder to me that I can't fix all the troubles in the world so I will have to at least try to rest and let go sometimes. A week after it was written, my daughter's close friend, Jenna Brovold, was shot a killed by her ex-boyfriend. In her honor, I will donate the proceeds from this album on bandcamp to New Beginnings of Walworth County, which offers support to people who have been affected by domestic violence. Thank you for your support!
