lyrics

don't want to be like I was
lying half dead in the streets
I think I've finally had enough.

with my soul carrying this weight
all my smiles are fake
and I can't help but thinking of running away.

you're a strong woman
and deserve a strong man
you're a wonderful person
and deserve better than this.

tired of waking up wasted
and trying to dream up excuses
cause I know what I did, but I just can't face it.

so, I tell you I'll try harder next time
but you have no reason to believe me.
I wouldn't even blame you if you decided to leave me.

cause you're a strong woman
and deserve a strong man.
you're a wonder person
and deserve better than this.

about

Ben Hughes New Jersey

"...channels musicians like Elliott Smith, Bright Eyes, and Sufjan Stevens, as on Hughes’ previous releases. But this record immediately calls to mind Pedro the Lion’s Control, with its deep-voiced chords and melodies, lyrical themes of corporate hell, and Hughes’ slurring voice. It could stand as a complimentary album to Control just as well as it stands on its own."
