lyrics

all my friends
and i’ve been listening to your
old bootlegs
from your last solo show when you just let go and didn't tip toe around the issues

i admit,
i've made a myself a bad habit,
of listening to them on repeat and wondering if your legs still fit into your boots

Cuz i miss the old you
i guess that’s the young you
so here’s to the new you
and all of your sad tunes
that i don't listen to now at all

Not for one moment, i don't miss you
not-not for one moment, i just miss the anger the fight that you lost left behind
that’s who i miss

and you got shit faced,
half a gin and tonic’s all it seems that it takes
to bring back the hatred the heart,
full of the stupid and smart,
the sing-along songs to our abandon

My one regret,
is covering your whole goddamn set,
I had to concentrate from the start
so life could imitate art,
I did it all wrong, but I'm still standin’

I miss the old you, (your stupid silly songs)
and the young you, (that i kept from movin’ on)
to the new you, (but i just can't sing along)
to your sad tunes
so i don't listen to them at all

Not for one moment, i don't miss you
not not for one moment,
i just miss the anger the fight that you lost left behind
miss the passion the fire that snuffed out and expired
That's who i miss.

(bridge)
Am i just a reflection?
or I am just here projecting?
So I'll cash in what’s left of the passion

in me

i miss the old you...
I guess that's young you...
So here's to the new you,
and all of your sad tunes, That i don't listen to now at all

(build)
Not for one moment, No i don't miss you
not not for one moment
i just miss the anger the fight that i lost left behind
miss the compassion the fire you snuffed out let expire
i’ve been rewriting my mind, for the two-hundredth time
That's who i miss.

Just for one moment

Asa Martin New Mexico

The unwavering, unflappable, uncompromising notes of his anthems barrel down musical staffs like a charging runaway train.

As wise as a young buck descendent of The Mountain Goats & as wild as a drinking buddy of Frank Turner, He’ll have you in a fever if you’ll have him at your bar or in your basement, & you’ll owe him when them tunes take up residence in your head & your heart. ... more
