acoustic to RAWK in one easy lesson
Jaded. Realistic. Given up on teenage dreams. Been there, done that. Lyrics coming from the distorted echoes of a dull life. Salvation from home recording. A sly wit and the intoxication of irony.
Story behind the song
This song is about my life before i got my ass in gear. It's about falling in to a rut and losing all your ambition. I always hated seeing old people shuffle around my town, because for a while I thought I would end up like that, stuck in the same place for my whole life.
Lyrics
I'm gonna die in a small town,
I'm gonna die in a small town,
Where everybody loves the blues,
Where everybody loves the blues,
I'll see you every time you come back,
I'll see you every time you come back,
I'm never moving on, Small Town Slow Death.
I'm never moving on, Small Town Slow Death.
I'm gonna die in a small town,
I'm gonna die in a small town,
Where everybody loves the blues,
Where everybody loves the blues,
I'll see you every time you come back,
I'll see you every time you come back,
I'm never moving on, Small Town Slow Death.
I'm never moving on, Small Town Slow Death.
Small Town, Slow Death, Small Town...
I'm gonna drink in the same hole,
I'm gonna drink in the same hole,
I'll hide my low self esteem,
I'll hide my low self esteem,
I'll piss away my hopes and dreams,
I'll piss away my hopes and dreams.
I'm never moving on, Small Town Slow Death.
I'm never moving on, Small Town Slow Death.
