lyrics

F, Am7, C7, C

The day finally came when I am no longer excited by snow
Am I too down or have I just grown
If getting older means getting somber
Then I don't want to live any longer

I've seen so much that I can't turn away
I've heard so much that there is no escape
These people that cry about all of their pain
The people that die day after day

Why have you chosen to close your eyes
To the pain of the people who you despise
Why have you chosen to kick them down
To hold yourself up as some sort of crown

I don't understand why you think
That all these people fail cuz they're weak
That it's not the system's fault
That they fall asleep and never wake

Why do you think that people deserve to die
That they must have a certain amount of money to survive
Well I don't think that's fucking right
It's getting too expensive to stay alive

Krakenhead

John Underwood is a ten-piece one-man-band, and he seems to be producing new instruments from his infinite beard every time I see him. He's an incredible musician, and deserves a proper listen to <3 Flower Crown Me A Queen

Not What I'm Looking For
by Bobby's Oar

Bobby's Oar is one of those projects where you notice something new on every listen. Greg's writing and playing style are infinite influences on me, and Not What I'm Looking For is just incredible. Flower Crown Me A Queen

You haven't heard of Escape The Stake yet, but you will. This is everything that got me into folk punk in the first place, plus a little more. Pay attention, this person is fucking going places! Flower Crown Me A Queen
