about

'Til I Make Peace With War' is a piano/vocal ballad that portrays my personal struggles with various health conditions and the anxieties that encompass them. At times, I have been unable to sing without physical pain. I have therefore felt my "core" as an artist and as an individual be stripped away. However, this loss of voice and identity has always been accompanied by a willingness to fight. For me, the solution is two-fold: action in the physical plus a greater and willful acquiescence to a higher spiritual power.

lyrics

Lyrics: That hollow stranger in my house
First quiet as a mouse
Drip feeds me, drip feeds me deep down

That shadow hung upon my wall
Once tiny now so tall
It leads me, but never breaks my fall

God, where have I gone?
My core has come undone
Lord, you hide my light I'm sure
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I Make peace with war
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I make peace with war

That fickle heart behind stained glass
Such an emblem of my past
Reminds me, reminds me to laugh
Those steady hands, unphased by time
Strong, certain, unlike mine
They find me, off kilter, out of line

God, where have I gone?
My core has come undone
Lord, you hide my light I'm sure
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I Make peace with war
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I make peace with war

[Instrumental]

God, where have I gone?
My core has come undone
Lord, you hide my light I'm sure,
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I make peace with war
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I make peace with war
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I make peace with war
Til I make peace
Til I make peace
Til I make peace with war...
