THE DARK HIGHWAY

How many times before I crash must I ride this dark highway?
darkness everywhere I see
and how many eyes must I meet in the open prairie skyway
with not a care about me?

It's true that I've been hiding
from where I've been and where I'm going
and I don't ask anybody how they're doing -
There's been no drinks bought for me
because I steer near the walls
and behind my eyes are lies and disillusions

It's true that I'm immune to the carnival
and the social hurricane that blows and burns all around me
I'm here in this skin looking in
thinking of neitzsche saying "my friends, but what are friends?"
nobody's found me

Watching people I've known for years
leave me alone while I stay home or on the road
while they become such great companions
It breaks my heart because I'm here
leaning on this bitter tear
and I'm but a raincloud to the great depths of their canyons.

about

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 🙏
