    A limited edition CD copy of my debut album 'One Way Ticket', released in 2006. I only had a run of a few hundred pressed at the time, most of them were sold through CD Baby's physical CD store but that no longer exists and was awkward for me to sell through anyway because I had to first ship a batch to their warehouse in the US. When they ran out a few years ago I thought all the CD's had finally gone but recently came across a small leftover batch which I'm now selling independently here.

    There is a booklet designed by Kate (from SoulJahm) with lyrics, some photos and credits included with each CD copy.
    For a small extra fee you can have your CD copy signed by me.

    There is only a limited number of CDs left so they are available as long as stock lasts.

about

I wrote this in the summer of 2000, one of the first songs written on my new Yamaha electro-acoustic guitar. It is an alternative indie rock song and describes the feeling when things on the surface should be fine but behind that someone may be suffering inside greatly.

lyrics

She was the summer in your eyes
You watch her light move on from above
Burn a candle in my veins
All the things you can't explain
Dirty feelings wash over your mind

And if you don't like what you see inside
Just close your eyes
Nothing will escape no need to deny
The tears that you hide

Consider where you will find
The hope you feel you've traded for love
Talk until this darkness falls
Through the floor below your hold
Rising up just let the weight pass on through

And if you don't like what you see inside
Just close your eyes
Nothing will escape no need to deny
The tears that you hide

Don't you know that it waits outside
There lies a dream you hide behind your eyes
In the pouring rain when there's no-one to blame this time
This time...

And if you don't like what you see inside
Just close your eyes
Nothing will escape no need to deny
The tears that you hide
