I'm a singer-songwriter from New Hampshire. My desire is to write songs about real life and tell stories. I hope above all else that God is seen and glorified by my simple expressions of music and the opening of my heart.

Story behind the song
I wrote this after a conversation with a co worker. I tried this out at a coffee house. It's pretty rough
Lyrics
The Only Good In Me By Lonnie Crampsey I think I’ve always known the truth But it takes a whole new meaning when it’s right up side the head I’ve always said that I love you But my lack of passion often leaves me left for dead I try to take control I try to go my way It takes much more than heart and soul To sink into my brain, my brain There’s nothing good in me It’s never me that they claim to see There’s nothing good in me Except for what you’ve done Except for what you’ve done, you’ve done Cause You’re the only good in me It’s so easy to deceive As the pride builds up I think I’m doing well I fix my eyes on selfish things But I talk a good game as far as you can tell I try to take control I try to go my way It doesn’t matter what I know If it doesn’t sink into my brain, my brain (chorus) There’s a thousand miles behind me With a million more to go Til I stand with you on the other side Lord come and take this man And inhabit all I am Until I am completely stripped of pride (chorus 2x) There’s nothing good in me It’s never me that they claim to see There’s nothing good in me Except for what you’ve done Except for what you’ve done, you’ve done Cause You’re the only good in me
