When Days n Daze came through Savannah two years ago, we decided super last minute to to make a music video. We weren’t sure where to film it, so we call climbed up on my friends roof. We didn’t have any sort of concept or anything, I just filmed us messing around.
Almost two years later, this video has over 600,000 views, now averaging more than 1,500 views a day! Even back when I posted it, THIS was the video of mine that started getting recognition. I was “the guy who filmed Days n Daze on the roof!” Now I always knew that this would get a ton of views because DND has been getting more and more popular, plus this is a really good song, but I still never anticipated it getting this many hits. This was the 1st of 4 (so far) music videos I’ve done with these homes.
I get so many comments and messages about people loving the music video, which, in my eyes, isn’t even my best work. I guess there’s something in the lack of effort and production value that make it come across as that much more sincere.

My breakfast was straight out the medicine cabinet
a remedy for the aftermath of my habits
sometimes it’s the ones who try to help
that hurt the most
I feel like we’re playing tug of war and I’m the rope
and I’m stretched to the limit
but you keep on pulling
and I’m gunna lose my goddamn mind, I’m gunna lose my mind
I want to hide away in the back of a cave
at the top of a mountain
where no one can hear me and no one can see me
so I don’t have to deal with them
and they don’t have to deal with me
Cause relationships are overrated
maybe I’m just tired and jaded
but I’m sorry I just like myself more than I like you
So call me anit-social call it masterbation
Either way it’s a solo operation
I’m just far more comfortable alone
It appears that apathy
has gotten the best of me
cause I’m so tired of you talking my ear off
about all your problems I just can’t fix
I don’t appreciate this unwanted company
and your constant chatter
reminds me why I’d rather you leave me be
So call me anit-social call it masterbation
Either way it’s a solo operation
I’m just far more comfortable alone
Cause people are ugly and people are hateful
destructive and greedy
we’re proud and ungrateful
the world would be so much better off without us
So swallow a bullet
or a handful of pills
we’re all compost in training
and there’s graves left to fill
we distract ourselves to make us feel like we’re not just mistakes
we distract ourselves to make us feel like we’re not just mistakes
It seems that everybody’s always got a bone to pick
a promise to break, never again will I make that mistake
Of trusting anyone
trusting anyone
trusting anyone
This is my misanthropic confession
human being are a waste of breath and
don’t think I excuse myself
I’m an asshole just like you
CHORUS
My breakfast was straight out the medicine cabinet.
