lyrics

Lonesome World

I’m hunting for meaning in my journey today
Why it brought me where it brought me
while so many fell astray
Only wish she had married me
but what can I say?
I can’t control even my own lonesome world anyway

I walked out on thousands
and I took the bait
Sold all my possessions
hell I was shooting straight
and we were happy with our broken hearts
as long as we could paint in the rain
and await a new resurrection for a lonesome world anyway

Sweet rain we prayed would happen
sweet days we hoped would come
so we wait to see if this possession will keep us
or put us on the run
sleeping in a cocoon of distraction
and trying to figure out why
time is only worth something if you dance with it
and not pay into the lie
someday I’ll be free, I promise
for now the changes may bend
all the rules stagnant with suffering
in this mousetrap we’re living in
let’s go somewhere new where I want to
let’s see how long you can stand
giving up control of the situation
and going somewhere you wouldn’t land

Now I’m playing and I’m paying
my dreams are at it again
when I don’t reminisce I miss nothing
everyday it’s best to pretend
you never know when your last hurrah will be
your journey is yours to embrace
these may be the good old days of your lonesome world anyway

Dan Frechette California

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
