about

Ventura (For Neal Casal) is the first single from the upcoming album Dystopian Weekends.

lyrics

You were working on that Willie Nelson record.
You took us to the fifth avenue bar
It might have been the greatest night of my life
It might have been but I can’t be too sure

And you wouldn’t even let me meet my hero
You said you didn’t want me to be crushed
Anyway it turns out he’s a real asshole
And it never would’ve added up to much

It turns out you were adding up to something
But what it was wasn’t enough to keep you here
After all it was you who’s always crying
Even though we never saw you shed a tear

So I just want to thank for the kindness
I just want to thank you for your songs
I just want these tears out of my head
They meant to hang around this long

And I wish I would’ve know you had this darkness
I wish I would’ve stayed in touch some more
I wish I would’ve taken up that offer
to meet you up Ventura before

Someday when I get off of this highway
Someday we will walk along this road
There’s a picture of you out there on the water
In that yellow buskin coat bathed in gold
