indie acoustic folk pennsylvania alt country harrisburg
Artist picture
An acoustic folk/alt-country band that takes art, emotions, and freedom seriously. Perfect for those who seek meaning in a world and media that appears ever in
Acoustic folk made babies with rock and roll, and they called themselves Raise up Roof Beams. Nathan's weighty tales of love and loss are affectionately arranged by the Roof Beams and sung over mellow-yet-driven beats of hope and progress until it finally occurs to you that it is not all about being sad. The biggest thing out of Pennsylvania since Yuengling and President Buchanan.

Story behind the song
Please understand that this song is ironic.
Lyrics
Don't you smell my hair as if it will leave me bare. Don't you understand that it is more than me holding your hand? Please play your flute and hope that the other rats follow suit. Please play your guitar as if it will get you far. But everyone knows that pipers make excellent liars and women can be led like children astray. Everyone is dying for affection, they're vying to catch the slightest glint in your eyes today. Sweet girls compromise and sweet girls tell lies to themselves on beaches that reach into cities. Just because we are dying does not mean that I should be crying; even stiff old Kant knows that sweet girls don't want pity. Everyone knows that pipers make excellent liars, and women can be led like children astray. Everyone is dying for affection, they are vying to catch the slightest glint in your eyes today. Walk away.
