"The Saddest Show" a Hook original for HeartbreakFest

[Hook]

So I really wanted to finagle a double fester for HeartbreakFest & the upcoming CountryFest but that doesn't seem feasible . This is another inspired by the tragedy of exposing your real life to the world I've written before about reality TV & such but another story in the news inspires more songage. I've really been missing playing the drums since I moved 8 months ago. I have the whole kit set up in the garage but it's just so Hot it's not worth it when Garageband is so easy. I did realize I could fit just the Yamaha DD 65 into my corner studio. I'll post some updated pics soon but with all that said the drums are me.

1 arpeggio Nylon string guitar
1 rhythm nylon
1 U bass
2 Drum set tracks (each stereo)
1 rhythm piano (garageband)
1 lead piano (thumbjam)
1 pedal steel guitar (thumbjam)
1 lead vocal
2 background vocals

The Saddest Show

written & performed by Hook

Don't you want to know
Don't you want to guess
Aren't you interested
in what's sure to be a mess

Come inside my twisted lie
Soon you'll learn things I try to deny
Come inside watch me implode
Front row seats for the saddest show

Don't you want to see
Don't you Secretly envy
Isn't there a small delight
When things don't go right

Come inside my twisted lie
Watch me melt right before your eyes
Come inside watch me implode
Front row seats for the saddest show

I thought I was different
I thought it was all in the past
I thought if you knew me
I could make this last
But I'm a dumbass

Don't you think you have intrigue
Don't you captivate
Couldn't you hold your own
In a time slot after 8

Come inside my twisted lie
Can I keep it fun until I die
Come inside watch me implode
Front row seats for the saddest show

Don't you already know
