  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    This is my new CD with a booklet I made, which is basically a physical copy of the pdf file you get with the album. It's a few bucks extra if that's cool. Also, it's black and white because color copies cost like 10 dollars to make and damn thats alot.

    note: im kinda bad at making these so far, so ill pay you back if theyre not up to par. sorry!

lyrics

Let me make one thing fucking clear: I wouldn’t be here if you weren’t here
I’d be singin alone, trying my best, dreaming about having nights like this
You sing with me, you scream with me, you dance all night and dream with me
Believe me I would never have it any other way
I know I’m getting cheesy, but please just let me say
The reason why I wrote this is because I hope and I pray
that I never take for granted all you’ve given me
So if I ever rip you off, you better fucking say that you’re

Friends not fans, brothers and sisters, not money makers.
Friends not fans, sisters and brothers, not fucking numbers.

Yeah I love counting facebook likes, and I’m sure I wouldn’t think twice
about playing the big shows, yeah we all know how that goes
We all got dreams yeah I agree, but never forget your family
they’ll be there for you, long after the lime light fades
So I’ll give out cds for free as long as I can
and if I need some money, then I’m gonna have to ask
But I’m sick of seeing bands expecting more from the ones who love them
I’m sick of seeing bands with no one left to tell them that they’re

Friends, not fans

These were your songs, from the day that you sang them
I just wrote them, I did not put them in your head
You’re all so good to me, I’m doing my best to deserve it
I am trying to break my ego, I don’t want to forget
I’m here because of you, because of everything you do
You sing at all the shows, you get your friends to go
So I’m sorry if I forget your name, I’m sorry if we don’t talk
Please know I’m trying my best, I thank and I love you

My friends, not fans
