lyrics

I was lost
I was a poor boy trying to make it on my own
I never thought that everything I’d known
Could make me feel so alone
I’m just a nobody somebody knows

When I was young
The old folks used to listen to the radio
But now it’s gone
They don’t have anyone who listens to their show
They’re just a nobody somebody knows

But you had to make it harder
You had to make it harder
You had to make it harder on me

I’m just a nobody somebody knows
Just a nobody somebody knows

about

Jason Kent Montreal, Québec

Swampy folk rock rooted deep in the caverns of song. Spending most of his 20's glued to a 4track machine, Kent amassed over 350 songs before he released his debut album in 2006. Morphed into Sunfields and back.
