The first single off the new album Fun Times in Sadland, coming soon.

lyrics

Hey how ya been
I put the ink in the pen
Still nothing comes out
I’ve said a little bit
I’ve said too much

Why’s it gotta end
Before the fun begins
The river’s flowing
Into the pivot of the underbrush

You run to whoever let you go
And run from someone you ought to know
Go
I’ll be your next mistake

But why you gotta start
Then put my heart in a jar?

Hey how ya been
I hit the gym again
Your hair’s different
I’ve seen a little bit
I’ve seen too much

Why’s it gotta end
Before the fun begins
The river’s flowing
Into the pivot of the underbrush

You run to whoever let you go
And run from someone you ought to know
Go
I’ll be your next mistake

But why you gotta start
Then put my heart in a jar?
Why’s it gotta start?
Why’s it gotta start at all?
One time…

Anytime the clock ticks off a measure she is going.
There are always rays of sunlight pouring down into the mourning.
Every time we say goodnight, there’s a small chance it is the last one.
I don’t want to say goodbye
I love my time tucked in your lasso, lovely.

Go
I’ll be your last mistake

But why you gotta start
Then put my heart in a jar?
Why you gotta start?
Why you gotta start?
