Surrey Dive - The Smith Street Band

And I’m just trying to pay an insurmountable debt

Just trying to forget about my inevitable death

Chris threw up in the diner and I was sick in the snow

Got a self-destructive instinct constructive summer complex

In the shadows of urban development I’ll mark my footprints in wet cement

Like the first man on some kind of temporary moon

But I had to get out before I dove in Surrey Dive

But I’m coming home, I’m coming home tonight

Can we hold on for a sec while I wipe cold sweat from my brow?

She said we might have met somewhere, but that’s all news to me now

And hey, look, I achieved something

Can we go back to bed?

But I had to get out before I dove in Surrey Dive

But I’m coming home, I’m coming home tonight

We used to be proud of each other

We used to take care of each other

I wanna make something without foundations built on bullshit and whatever

The loudest person says 'cause it’s never really right

But the beating and the puffing up of chests

Has beaten every argument I’ve had tonight

Come on, just punch me in the face so then at least you’ll think you’re right

Maybe you will leave this place, lose the war and win the fight

And I’m running scared, I’m running scared, I’m running scared

I’m running scared from the house that I helped build

I’m running scared, I’m running scared, I’m running scared

So why don’t you fuck off?

Stop bringing hate into our lives

'Cause all we ever really wanted was to feel at home

Was to feel at home tonight
