    the physical version of the album, with album art by Kyle Hazelton, and some thank yous, and album design/art by Don Paris Schlotman. i printed about 300, so help me get rid of them. also, the track order on the disc is wrong, so they all have little arrows correcting it, which i guess makes it a collectible.

lyrics

play it for yourself:

F
It's not about me
Am
I'm only here for a minute
Dm
And I know that i can't fix it
Bb
if i can help even just a little bit
won't you let me try

And I promise that i will try
Not to make it any worse
To steal a little bit of the hurt

If i could be your human shield
If i could be your samurai
I cut down your enemies
and pull you through alright

It's not about me
I'm only here for a minute
And i know that i can't fix it
if i can help just a little bit

But the memory won't forget us,
No matter all the time of the work,
the work, the work,
No matter how we try.

If i could be your human shield,
If i could be your Masai,
I cut down your enemies,
and pull you through alright.

If i could be your human shield,
If i could be your samurai,
I cut down your enemies,
and pull you through alright,

but it's not about me,
I'm only here for a minute,
I know that i can't fix it,
if i can help even just a little bit,
won't you let me try.
