“Why do I do the things I do?/Was I born this way or am I self made fool?/I shoot the lights and I curse the dark”

It Ain’t Easy Being Me by Chris Knight. I don’t know when or where I discovered this guy but he is right up my current musical alley–incredibly poignant lyrics and that modern alt-country sound. Check out the video, especially if you have a high speed connection and/or read the lyrics.
These lyrics really match how I feel most days; yes, if self-pity was food, I would be morbidly obese. Anyway, the only reason I mention this is that I saw the video over on Twang Nation (which is an awesome site if you want to learn about some really authentic music being made out there today) and thought how cool it would be to put it here, but then youtube restricted access to it. So, you’re going to have to go over there if you want to watch it.

Thanks for the shout out. Chris Knight is amazing in concert as well, catch him if you can. eah, It’s hard to assess which videos YouTube will restrict and which they won’t.
