  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    The debut of a promising newcomer. Roofman breaks with the cliché of the singer-songwriter. The music takes precedence over everything. Recorded with his friends Rhett Shull, Philip Conrad & Pim van der Meulen in our legendary studio in Hamburg. With Johan Scheerer as producer, the way of the album was clear. It's about music, about sound, about art. No soft-washed 2:30 standard mush.

lyrics

You put a mirror to my face
you said it’s all that you regret
you said it’s not because of you
you said it’s me cause i’m a fool

we met up the other day
and you left for a month or more
you needed help so i picked you up
you filled my glass and i felt the buzz

That’s how friends become strangers
That’s how they push you right to the edge
When i care too much, it always happens
It makes me stronger than i’ve ever been

we meet up at a place by the beach
I take a left, you take a right
You go to a place i don’t wanna be,
I take a swim, i don't wanna fight

we play some tunes,
we share some laughs.
we pour a drink and drink it fast
I take my car I go back home
you find new friends you don’t wanna go.

That’s how friends become strangers
That’s how they push you right to the edge
When i care too much, it always happens
It makes me stronger than i’ve ever been

That’s how friends become strangers
That’s how they push you right to the edge
When i care too much, it always happens
It makes me stronger than i’ve ever been
