about

This is a Destiel inspired fansong. Writing and playing it on the guitar was an amazing learning experience - this is the first song I've ever composed and performed entirely by myself. I'm writing music to learn guitar, and this helped me immensely with minor chords!

Free download, but feel free to leave a few coins in my guitar case if you are so inclined!

lyrics

diner in a small town
and the pie tastes like heaven
but heaven’s all in gray

runnin’ over to my chevy
fumblin’ with the damn key
but man, i got no clue
where I’m going to

cause all my good intentions
they pave the short road to oblivion
still I lift my head up to the sky and pray
that you’ll come and you’ll find me
and even if your light blinds me
just that you’d be here’d
make it okay

and oh, the bar has a quick fix
for my heart’s fuckin apocolypse
cold beer and straight whiskey
convince me you don’t miss me

Cuz I’m Poison / I need you
I don’t deserve to be saved
poison / I need you
Such a mess that I have made

I’m poison / I need you
When the demons rise
poison / I need you
When angels light up all the skies

I need you when the light turns dark
I need you when you break my heart
I need you when the road gets rough
and I need you when I’m not enough

When all my good intentions
pave the short road to oblivion
when my voice cuts out and I can’t even pray
catch up with me when it catches up to me
when I can’t see the road in front of me
make it okay

gunning and running
grieving and leaving
cold beer and straight whiskey
convince me you don’t miss me

convince me you don’t need me

gunning and running
grieving and leaving
cold beer and straight whiskey
I’m prayin’ damn it find me.
