lyrics

I've got a bargain on the darkness 'cause I can't afford the light
This life ain't fit for all us sinners, but we live it every night, yeah alright
We don't worry 'bout, we don't talk about it anymore
Let's raise a glass for those who've passed before we told 'em how we fealt
Let's take a drink and think about 'em then pour it on the ground
around here we still think about, we still talk about you my friend

I've got regrets but I don't sweat 'er, just get better every day
I like my whiskey, wine and women. They make me feel ok and we say
"Ain't you heard of us, what don't murder us don't mean anything”
I've seen a love, a love so beautiful it makes me stop to think
How come the only kind that finds me leads me right back to the drink
And we sing, "pour another 'cause there ain't no lover do no good for us now"

I've seen my friends come to an end, watched my city turn to gold
Loved a 10 though I'm a zero, washed up hero getting old
And I told everyone you've got to squeeze the fun out of whatever this is
We're here to help each other through the very hardest things we do
If you ain't on it like you wanted, we'll laugh about that too, I like you
Keep your buddies 'cause there ain't nobody getting through this alone

FREEMAN GODSPEED
by Danny Vacon

supported by 12 fans who also own “Bargain On The Darkness”

Here, Vacon chats about love related themes, the vexes and momentary satisfactions one encounters in trying to bang one's way to happiness. The ladies love Danny Vacon, and Danny Vacon loves the ladies, and yet the two somehow elude each other. I can't wait for the album in which Vacon sings about raising kids, going to work, trying to stuff some Netflix in with his long-suffering wife, and maybe binge drinking hard alcohol after everyone has gone to bed. albinobone
