    This is one of the most well written songs most people will never know about. Here is to those that found it.

    "I used think I was someone, I see that I'm someone else." That line, among all the other great ones, just really hits me in the chest, man. I'm not even fully sure why, but wow.

    Smiling, laughing, the helmet, the high-vis vest... It's a little silly, a bit ridiculous at the start... but then BAM, at 0:30 you catch that steely-eyed thousand-yard-stare and the mood changes, it's like you're right back to where you were when you belted this out the first time in your bedroom or garage... intense and honest and fkn real... ty man. There's nothing silly about this.

      Couldn't agree more I fuckin love this... especially the moment at 5 minutes when he says I'm the only one with so much emotion. I felt that shit.

      Little update, my wife and I are finally going to see Nick play in Boston in June. It will be surreal to see him perform live about as far away from Alaska as he could get in the States. To see his hard work, passion and dedication pay off is inspiring. Nowadays even with a million ways to connect with artists, I’ve never felt more disconnected to most of them. But with Nick, it feel real, authentic, and brutally honest. In a world where everyone try’s to show off themselves as something they’re not, it’s refreshing to see someone like Nick show you the deeper parts of his childhood and life and it’s something you really just don’t get anymore. Stay true to yourself and for those reading, enjoy the little things, don’t forget what makes life worth living. Honor the past, live in the moment, and have hope for the future.

    [Verse 1]
    I find that all my charm wears off after a couple drinks
    Anyone with their antennas up can see that I’m high
    A Fatbrokeloser with dishonest thoughts of being somebody
    A sad dude looking for a ticket to ride
    I wondered why my nephew scared me so much and then I figured it out
    I hate myself so much why would I make a new me
    Maybe he’ll be better, an upgrade, a standout
    A college essay who overcomes his upbringing
    [Chorus]
    I used to talk to Jesus
    Now I’m drunk and talking to myself
    Used to think I was someone
    Now I see that I’m someone else
    Used to think I was Jesus
    Sent down here as God’s own son
    Thought that everybody loved me
    Now I see I was the only one
    The only one
    The only one
    [Verse 2]
    Maybe I loved you or maybe just got used to you being here
    But by the end it was clear that we had drifted apart
    I wonder what kind of plans God has for you basic bitches
    People spend their whole life trying to find love
    Me, I spend more time scheming ways to put an end to myself
    Or at least pull a blanket over all of the noise
    But I ain’t gonna give the ghost up ‘til my name’s in your mouth
    Not because you love me, girl, but because you can’t escape my voice Chorus]
    Well I used to talk to Jesus
    Now I’m drunk and talking to myself
    Used to think I was someone
    Now I see that I’m someone else
    Used to try to act like Jesus
    Sent down here as God’s own son
    Thought that everybody needed me
    Now, I see I was the only one
    The only one
    The only one
    The only one
    The only one
    [Bridge]
    Maybe I’ll get better one day
    When I get all of this shit out of my head
    Maybe I’ll get famous
    Take a bunch of pills and wind up dead
    Who knows
    Who knows
    I know, Oh, I know
    I’m the only one
