lyrics

I try to write the same song every single night
Explaining the whole universe and everything that's right
But none of this makes perfect sense unless you are insane
And live off the conspiracies created in your brain
Yeah there are no conspiracies, its all just in your brain

Everything's so complicated, freaky and unsure
But burying your head in the sand is just so immature
I know its really hard to get out of bed sometimes
But if you don't go and breathe the air, you'll never feel alive
Yeah you need a little sunshine if your ever gonna thrive

Now its not every single day
The beauty in this place takes my breath away
But that doesn't mean that I
Don't want to stick around for the good times

All I know's the world's much nicer when you're not a jerk
Walling yourself off behind some solipsistic smirk
Everyone's unhappy sometimes, its how we were made
If you leave this party early you will wish you would have stayed
If you need a little break you can lay with me in the shade
If you leave this party early you will wish you would have stayed

supported by 4 fans who also own “Good News for a Sad Friend”

The Taxpayers were able to put down a tacklist of songs that allow us to go on a journey. In this album we experience the manic highs and lows one may experience in a life long battle with deteriorating mental health. The picture at times grim and beautiful is one I continually come back to as its tragedy never fades. Ulysses Johnson
