Not that I think he's the "next Freddie Mercury", but he actually does have 5 songwriting credits on his album. They are arguably some of the most well-written songs on the album. He said he would've written more, but he only had 2 months to put out the album, so time constraints made it difficult, but he says he'll be writing a lot on the 2nd album.

For example, he wrote this one:



He said he wrote it from experience. It's about when you're in a relationship, and the person you're with is about to break down, and you're letting them know that it's okay, let it out, I'll pick up the pieces.

Here are the lyrics:
Broken Open-

Broken pieces, break into me
So imperfectly what you should be

I don't want you to go
Don't wanna see you back out in the cold
Air you're breathing out fills you with grey
Don't run away, find me

I know the battles of chasing the shadows of who you are babe
It doesn't matter, go on and shatter
I'm all you need
Broken pieces, break into me
So imperfectly what you should be
Lay here, it's safe here, I'll let you be broken open
Hide you, confide to you so we can be broken open

Let's alight in the night
We can fall away, slip out of sight
When you drop your guard
Melt it in time, so it'll try crying

I know the battles of chasing the shadows of who you are babe
It doesn't matter, go on and shatter
I'm all you need
Broken pieces, break into me
So imperfectly what you should be
Lay here, it's safe here, I'll let you be broken open
Hide you, confide to you so we can be broken open

Broken pieces, break into me
So imperfectly what you should be
Lay here, it's safe here, I'll let you be broken open
Hide you, confide to you so we can be broken open

Lay here, it's safe here, I'll let you be broken open
Hide you, confide to you so we can be broken open
