lyrics

He left her in a booth with some cash on the table
She was wearing that red dress she got for her birthday
And they exchanged smiles despite conversation
Of how utterly lost we all seem to be
That’s just the way it is sometimes in this life
He gave her a call a little bit later
Just to say thank you for lending your ear
She said no problem just wanna be a good friend
He said I know just don’t wanna weigh you down
That’s just the way it is sometimes in this life
He said your beautiful and she blushed over air waves
When he said it’s the same way talk to the sky
Then a small hesitation as if it pained them to say it
Then they both whispered goodbye
That’s just the way it is sometimes in this life

Shameless Money Grab
by Crywank

Tomorrow Is Nearly Yesterday And Everyday Is Stupid has been an album I can't get enough of for years. I can't stress enough how much I love the brutally honest and relatable lyrics. Errol Bateman

Noise
by Silhouettes vs. The Sun

Phenomenal lyrical content and just all around talent. Rather partial to When The Silence Breaks but also always looking forward to what comes next. Errol Bateman

Kam
by Kat Morgan

Well written songs, elegantly produced, and performed by a voice that gives goosebumps. Someone that has strength I have been in awe of for a long, long time. Errol Bateman
