lyrics

I was born a poor boy, always kept my windows shut so tight
Though I wanted to see the light
Ever since I drew breath every day's a countdown to the time
When my head splits and I go blind

Then a man says, "Try these beans
You'll get higher than a kite in the breeze
And you'll finally be free"

I'm in love with the sun but the sun doesn't love me
Can I climb up a stalk to a land high above me?
I'm in love with the sun

And I said, "All I've got to trade is this cow that's got no milk to give"
I too am bled dry and it's frightfully hard to live
He said, "I'll take that, best of luck I hope you find your place
You can go when your mind breaks"

I guess I got nothing to lose, I hope one day I'll break through this roof
And get a taste of youth

Mother said, "Jack, don't you cry. You've still got your left eye
And you probably won't die"

I'm in love with the sun but the sun don't love me

All The Things That You Believe
by The Hell Yeah Babies

These guys tick every box for what I want in music. The melodies, the harmonies, the lyrics. There's a character limit so I'll say there are few perfect records in the world and this is one of them. Karma Gambit

If I Ever See the Stars Again
by The Afraid Brigade

Every song title (and every lyric) is depressing as hell, but it somehow manages to make you feel better about life at the same time. And isn't that perhaps the noblest thing music can do? Karma Gambit

Readymade Breakup
by Readymade Breakup

A great band that was sadly short lived. This record is packed with great songs and really played a role in me doing what I do now. Karma Gambit
