    Throughout The Kid, Schroeder taps into an endless well of homey, roots rock inspiration, from Wilco to Neil Young. By pairing a pitch-perfect ability to capture that energy with a vivid imagination, Schroeder reaches something that’s not quite present and not quite past, part nostalgia and part exploration of a new reality. “These songs just flowed easily,” he says. “I just let go and accepted the fact that this record would be a product of its circumstances. I wanted to capture the different parts of my mind, country and rock, stories from my life and from characters. I just need to record songs that are important to my life and share them with the world.”

lyrics

With every breaking dawn, he’d slip away
He’d turn his lanter on and his mind would change
Talked to his only friends, the traffic signs
And when the highway ends, he’ll blow his mind
The angels hark
The dogs will bark
Your car won’t start
And pain will leave it’s mark

So cry sometimes
You got to cry sometimes
Just cry sometimes
You got to cry

Another empty page that’s got no ink
Another song he sang lead him to drink
Another open ear deprived of words
Another empty beer to soothe the hurt
The people flock
The dead will walk
The shadows stalk
But still he won’t talk

So cry sometimes
You got to cry sometimes
Just cry sometimes
You got to cry

The country music plays, he checks the time
No words been spoke in days but he don’t mind
He fears behind the bar someone will ask
Why he had come this far to break a glass
The angels sing
The church bell rings
You’ll find the thing that you’ve been missing

If you cry sometimes
You got to cry sometimes
Just cry sometimes
You got to cry
Just cry sometimes
You got to cry
