about
This track is called "Recycle Me." I completed this track in one week, idea to finished product. It will be one of the songs featured on my upcoming EP which will be done by the end of March/early April! This song came about when I was quite down in the dumps but wanted to find some humor in the thoughts that I was having. So I thought what if someone was trying to kill themselves but was trying to do it just with just secondhand materials off of craigslist and such but it all just kept breaking since it was secondhand of course. Funny, but morbid.
lyrics
I found a car on craigslist so my friend could run me over,
Cuz lately lifes been rough I've run out of four leaf clovers,
I got a pen on ebay yea I was the highest bidder,
All I had were pencils had to write my note at dinner,
But you have done all you can,
And I know I should be happy,
But you can only do so much,
Now I've got to go only in a curious way,
Just sucks that I'm broke
I traded my bicycle for some jumper cables,
Tried to shock myself but I wasn't able,
Got a battery from my neighbor's shed,
Pulled the cables out and put em right against my head,
But you have done all you can,
And I know I should be happy,
But you can only do so much,
Now I've got to go only in a curious way,
Just sucks that I'm broke
Try to recycle me,
