Avoiding Catatonic Surrender

Avoiding Catatonic Surrender Lyrics

It's lonely in the Garden State, the place of no left turns
In a Motel 6 in East Brunswick smoking 'till my lungs burn
I put ice in the trash can to cool down my beer
Breathe in the perfume in the room of the person last here
I can't stand this singing, I can't stand this song
I can't stand being home, lord I can't stand being gone
My ears ring when it's quiet and I ain't heard a thing all day
And I'd call if I could but right now I ain't got nothing to say
And so on, and so long
I can't keep singing these songs for too long, and so on
The first night we met we f**ked on the couch in my living room
And spent the morning pretending it didn't happen searching for your lost phone
Which I found between the cushions, below a pile of our clothes,
You said you couldn't leave with out it, I should have kept my eyes closed
I left for work directly then for a 15 hour day
Made just over a hundred bucks none of which I ever saved
Didn't hear too much from you before and never heard from you again
Cause as soon as this sh*t starts boy it's bound to end
And so on, and so long
I can't keep singing these songs for too long, and so on
I throw empty beer cans at the tv when I'm watching the news
I hate republicans I hate democrats I hate liberals too
I think pacifists are weak and violence is wrong
But I go limp for police and I fight when it's called for
The truth is I don't know or care with who or where I fit in at all
But I keep on living simple RIDING FAST AND LIVING SLOW
I write standard boring songs with boring standard chords
