lyrics

Angry drivers all beating their horns
So they're understood
The city hollers all through the walls
A haze of nicotine keepin' it warm
In the room made of wood
The night just hollers outside the walls

Nights are groanin, seasons changin
The majesty of tall glarin screens is waning
Taking shallow advice from people using given it as a vice
This place ain't good for my health
I'm heading south of somewhere else

Youngsters dressed in ardent attires
Ain't got no clues
The sun's come up, that should be enough
Brains burning in localized fires
Doused by the brew
The sun's come up, I don't wanna get up

The night has groaned the season's changed
The majesty of tall glarin screens has waned to nothing
And now on the porch thoughts and senses dispose
To reveal everywhere is destined
To always end up the same
Will always end up the same
We'll always end up the same

Repeating what you've heard
'Til it sounds absurd
Repeating what you've heard
About all the biggest fuckin' words

Repeating what you've heard
'Til it sounds absurd
Repeating what you've heard
About the biggest words
Just to keep up
