about

a song I wrote back in early 2014 when I had a 3 week long headache that wouldn't subside so I just sat down with a guitar and this came pouring out

lyrics

drank a little whiskey late last night
tried to chase this pain from my skull
but everybody knows it's all this booze that impairs my inspiration so
I smoked myself stupid then instead
I couldn't find the focus for my head
to motivate the mind I value so
and stimulate these fingers just to show

that boy's guilty as sin

thesaurically speaking is my crutch
am I trying to articulate to much?
am I just in over my head, or is the dream now finally dead?
I thought I had the drive to make this work, but then uncertainty began it's dirty lurk, creeping up softly
on the streets trying to overwhelm me
the whiskey found it's way back in my cup
I feel the shame building in my gut
another day with yet nothing made
maybe I just haven't drank enough
G

that boys guilty as sin

I caught my mind wandering again
waiting on reality to set in
but everybody knows it's all this hate
that blinds our nations eyes through every sin
I took a minute tried to collect my thoughts
and piece together a substance driven plot
but everybody knows that I can't write
my brains slowly pacing at a trot
I wanna be profound with the words I say
differently perceive the events of a day
a day in which the world only seems to take
the simple pleasures life has passed our way

that boys guilty as sin
