When I wrote this song I was thinking about Frank Sinatra and that 50's swing style he mastered. I thought to myself, "What would Frank say if he found out that the woman he loved was cheating on him?". The genders were swithched. And, of course, some phrases. But, the sentiment, the message in the song sounds like him. At least, that was my goal. Sinatra was/is one of the greats. He would never allow anyone to disrespect him. Snap his fingers and you were gone. If he wanted you to "Pick and Choose" you did it. Just be glad he gave you until, "The end of the day". For Frank Sinatra.

We live in a world where nothing remains sacred, not even life. It feels as if we all care only about ourselves.

A lyric about an alcoholic father whom abandoned his child(ren). Now you’re self-destructive and a mess, and now you feel like you’ll never love anyone again; especially yourself.

This is a song about recovery from addiction. I wrote it personally for recovery from an eating disorder, but in reality it can be any addiction. “Addiction is a monster hiding inside your closet; recovery is the flashlight scaring away that monster. Don’t ever think that scaring away that monster is impossible. What’s impossible is thinking you have to live in that sane room where your monster lies for the rest of your life. It’s time to shine; scare away that monster.”

This lyric is both quite serious and also tongue in cheek simultaneously. If that makes sense. Do you get to a point where you are sick of people not taking you seriously? I think we all do. But I'll tell you simply, I Am Not A Joke
