Steel
Listen Now (platform of choice)
I wrote “Steel” as a gift for my wife, Jacquelyn, on our 11-year anniversary.
The traditional gift that year? Steel.
So I figured… why not write a song called “Steel” on a steel guitar? Felt like the most me thing I could do. She thought it very clever…
But somewhere between the joke and the melody, it turned into something real, something deeper.
It’s a song about love that could’ve slipped away… wrong timing, awful actually… that turned in to something about memory, desire, and the strength it takes to both, stay grounded and “hell with it…”
I flipped steal and steel to show both sides:
“I’ll steal your heart again / I’ll steel my heart from sin.”
It’s not just wordplay. It’s truth.
For anyone who’s ever felt the pull of what was, what could’ve been and what still burns beneath the surface… this one’s for you.
