  • 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

Well I got Lucero playin on the speakers
drivin down the open road
not far from Chicago
but too far to feel at home

And I got- Ben Nichols weathered voice
singin slowly
tellin me how he aint so lonely
he’s got the sad songs on the radio
he’s got miles and miles to go

And that’s when I started thinking
I aint got it so rough
I’ve had so many songs to go to
when I’m down on my luck

Yeah that’s when I started thinking
that I’m never on my own
so when I feel like I can’t go on
I turn up that radio

Because the sad songs are to let you know,
that you’re not alone.

Yeah there is always a light
and it never goes out
but sometimes it grows darker and tries to
eat us from the inside out

And life is not good sometimes
in fact, it’ pretty damn cruel
that’s why the best songs are written by people
with nothing left to lose

And they scream in the night
making art out of their living hell
we must listen and learn from what they say
so we can all prevail

And the songs that get stuck in our head
on that long drive home
they are all that we have sometimes
sometimes they’re all that we know

Yeah the sad songs are to let you know,
that you’re not alone. That you’re not alone.
