about

This one started from an attempt to write something more riff-based. It started as more southern rock sounding (originally, I was gonna write sarcastic country lyrics), but it still ended up as mostly power chords. I still like it pretty well though, especially with the lyrics I drew from my stream-of-consciousness for it.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Bigger rocks thrown at my window
Hotel's cold, and I just can't go
Monkey wrench in my frustration
Only want that irratation

Chorus:
I don't know why

Verse 2:
I get smarter, I get lonely
Roll me over, kill me slowly
Two more hours, then it's over
Two more hours to get closure

Chorus:
But I don't try

*solo*

Chorus:
I don't know why

Verse 3:
The snare's off beat and I'm not counting
Swimming in a shallow fountain
Bumpers pointed at each other
Pinball eyes search for another

When did I become this person?
Is it okay if it's just learning?
Caffeine baby, be my savior
Save me from this cruel behavior

Chorus:
I don't know why
