about

A song for all artists of all mediums who seek immortality though their art

lyrics

So the lights return on me,
And I remain all they see,
And now it comes my time to shine,
Now the stage is all mine,

Now time doesn't turn,
But the wheels of fate still burn,
And I play on...

I know it's danger to live your life with your heart upon the line,
But these creations that fool your mind they're all I leave behind,

Now time doesn't turn,
But the wheels of fate still burn,
And I play on...

Maybe one day they'll remember who I was, and all the dreams that I had dreamt,
And maybe one day the artist will live on...

And I know the end will soon be here along with all I have to fear,
Just a number, a name upon a stone, "here lies a man who died alone..."

Now time doesn't turn,
But the wheels of fate still burn,
And I play on...

I can live a life in silence, but this life would not be lived,
In a heart that must be heard, I'll have peace when I have spoken,
Though the body fades away, the artist still lives on...

In 2012, as his father battled terminal cancer, a resolve possessed him to turn to the medium that was once his passion. The result is The Recovery Sessions.
