Caleb Cox The Sad Gods of Arkansas certainly live up to their name on their debut. This record makes me want to cry into a bowl of chicken noodle soup! All jokes aside these guys are gnar. Favorite track: Bent To Break.

you thought you knew what I wanted you thought you knew how far I could bend before I break, you knew you could change but you can’t change the way our world ends and it’s so hard to relate to anything you say I just don’t know what it’s like never had the chance to watch my mother cry we can drive through this town all night I know every turn with the radio on we know every word you said you liked the beach you said you’d like to leave “something broke your plans that you never made with me” we can drive through this town all night I know every turn with the radio on we know every word well if you wanna leave just let me know I’d drive us both off this bridge before you leave me here alone

Kid 02:21
a year ago you couldn’t stand to be alone and now that’s all you want and now you think you’re too cool for me but did you forget that if it weren’t for me you’d still be the sad and lonely kid i fell in love with you’ve got time for your friends and you’ve got time for your TV but oh my god you never have any time for me what am i still doing here? waiting on your approval all your words sound so rehearsed but i’m still the same kid you fell in love with you’ve got time for your friends and you’ve got time for your TV but oh my god you never have any time for me

falling you can see that I’ve fallen through running I cannot be caught by you and I don’t know where to go when my true colors show and I don’t know who to be when judgement is cursed to me no one’s home and I cannot see the light burned out, no more life in me advice doesn’t help at all they see me helpless and I don’t know where to go when my true colors show and I don’t know who to be when judgement is cursed to me they see me helpless

you don’t know where to go when you’re done with school you are so young you’re only 18 years old months ago you were controlled no matter where you went school or home you have to find yourself make your own decisions do whatever helps live for a reason if I could be what I wanted I wouldn’t be what I want you have to find yourself make your own decisions do whatever helps live for a reason

I should’ve told you I felt like something was wrong I could’ve saved you from so much trouble and there would be no problems to solve I guess I should’ve paid more attention I should’ve been focusing on someone besides myself all along, we’re all just missing something and as time goes on, I’m still missing someone come a little closer just promise not to disappear everywhere you go is too far from here you can say it’s not your fault you can blame it all on someone else whatever you think helps all along, we’re all just missing something and as time goes on, I’m still missing someone I’d rather be anywhere but here I’m always missing out you’re always with someone else
7.
there’s still time for you to get inside my head before i close it for good it’s all my fault i should have never let my hands get soft some nights i want to take the long way home to cover more ground, digging up your bones I can still feel it with the windows rolled down and I can still hear you with the radio loud some nights i want to take the long way home to cover more ground, digging up your bones
8.
I watched you walk in with a group of your friends you headed straight for the wall and all night you didn’t talk has something got you down? does he not want you around? don’t let him make you feel any less than perfect are you looking for that smile to remind you what you’re here for? you’ll wait around for a while waiting for change waiting for nothing break every promise you made lay in the bed you made you’ve seen every sign what more could you want if you’re not worth the fight you’re just waiting for change you’re waiting for nothing break every promise you made lay in the bed you made
9.
maybe you’re right and it’s not you that’s changed, it’s me maybe I’m the man I said I never wanted to be I just want to see what you see I just couldn’t live with your blood on my hands I wouldn’t wait for you to plan your own death how could you live the life that cursed you? you could use your past as a crutch forever if you let yourself I just want to see what you see I just couldn’t live with your blood on my hands how could you live the life that cursed you? you could use your past as a crutch forever if you let yourself
