The eleventh song of Queens, New York based punk-rock band, Bayside’s debut album Sirens and Condolences, released in 2004. This song explores the nuisances and annoyance of ignored pent-up rage and the violent way the lead singer would release his rage against the person he credits as the cause of...
[Verse 1]
You wanted to know just what makes me tick
I guess I could say that
You and your bullshit
Are pushing me towards an explosion
I guess you're what drives me
[Chorus]
I wish I could ride you
Drive you too fast into a sharp curve
Break your neck like you broke my will
The guardrail will take you home
[Verse 2]
I guess you get caught up
In the day-to-day
Drama of being you
To notice me
And what's become of my eyes
The vessels are an angry red
Just like the blood from my lips, as I chew on them
[Chorus]
I wish I could ride you
Drive you too fast into a sharp curve
Break your neck like you broke my will
The guardrail will take you home
[Bridge]
I keep your picture as a reminder, of what I wish I wasn't
It's like a fun house mirror version of myself
Through those fucked up eyes of yours
[Chorus]
I wish I could ride you
Drive you too fast into a sharp curve
Break your neck like you broke my will
The guardrail
The guardrail
The guardrail
Will take you home
Guardrail was produced by J. Robbins & Bayside.
