Fenton, Michigan - Rock/Alternative - Writing lyrics since 2006 - Songwriting since 2011
I've been writing lyrics since about 2006. In 2011 I decided to try to put some of these lyrics to music. Very new at this, and I'm not a musician, but trying to learn. "Compulsion" is basically me, and whomever I might get to record a song. (Click on "full" next to the song above for the lyric, and more song info.)

Lyrics
There’s a lighthouse on the coast of Maine High above a foggy pier Some say fog is like the ghost of rain But it’s more like the ghost of tears Well, she watched him climb aboard his rusty trawler And she said she didn’t care about their debts But a late September catch would fetch top dollar So he sailed into the sea’s eternal net There’s a lighthouse on the coast of Maine High above a foggy pier Some say fog is like the ghost of rain But it’s more like the ghost of tears Waves were salty mountains and the wind was gale force Then his fishing vessel foundered in the squall Now the midnight moon above her is a pale horse And his death feels like the deepest debt of all There’s a lighthouse on the coast of Maine High above a foggy pier Some say fog is like the ghost of rain But it’s more like the ghost of tears Yeah, there’s a lighthouse on the coast of Maine High above a foggy pier Some say fog is like the ghost of rain But it’s more like the ghost of tears
