The Smith Street Band - Surrey Dive lyrics

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
