lyrics
Sweaty hands, reduced precision
Waiting on the fan with the slow rotation
Frayed starter cord and rusty nailheads
Crud between the boards and musty cobwebs
Everything you've got that isn't busted yet
Is wearing down every time you use it
What an ugly thought I was thinking
Gripped by a fear of no discernable beginning
Hammering down is how I've been getting through
Strongarming life is my bonehead tried and true
No fixing it for good, but there could be just enough
It's running today, and maybe that's long enough
What an ugly thought I was thinking
Both of us showing zero signs of relenting
I'm usually lost and I've got precious little finesse
But I'm still the boss, I'm still tougher than the rest
Waiting on the fan with the slow rotation
Frayed starter cord and rusty nailheads
Crud between the boards and musty cobwebs
Everything you've got that isn't busted yet
Is wearing down every time you use it
What an ugly thought I was thinking
Gripped by a fear of no discernable beginning
Hammering down is how I've been getting through
Strongarming life is my bonehead tried and true
No fixing it for good, but there could be just enough
It's running today, and maybe that's long enough
What an ugly thought I was thinking
Both of us showing zero signs of relenting
I'm usually lost and I've got precious little finesse
But I'm still the boss, I'm still tougher than the rest

Gritty and poignant. I love the imagery and attention to detail in the lyrics that captures that singular experience of growing up in the 'burbs. Quite excellent for screaming along to in the car
