(Lyrics and music by Ryan Overly, additional lyrics by Rob Seitz)

lyrics

Hello good old sorrow
It's nice to see you again
Though you may be gone tomorrow
Tonight you're my only friend
So have a drink with my heart
Cuz love leaves only casualties
We can laugh at all the jokes
All them walking folks down their in the cities
Where the hell are they goin'?
Hiding holes inside their hearts
Though sadness may be true
I wish they only knew
It's what keeps them all apart
Why the hell are they smiling
Do they see darkness all around
They're just hiding from their fate
Behind the yellow gate
and an old familiar sound

But not me I'm running with an empty caravan
Just looking for nothing
Keeping death close at hand
I'm heading for nowhere
That's just where i want to be
Out there on my own
Singing on my own surrounded by eternity
Some say i'm morbid
Others say i need to cry
Did you ever see a teardrop falling from a clear blue sky

So goodbye my friend sorrow
I know I'll see you in the end
but now I've sang my song
I know it won't be long
'Til love finds me again

Two three four!

Thank God for country music
Thank God it's the only music playing on the radio around here
You know I like that rock 'n' roll, hip hop, reggae, funk and soul
but what am I gonna play when I get old?
