Quote from Jeff before performing an acoustic version of this song live:
“This song is about how, well personally, about how whenever, in the past few years, when I’ve talked to people about my anxiety, they’ve all suggested the same meditation app on my phone.. And I’m like ‘you don’t fucking get...
[Intro]
Hey, hey
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wanna take the car out on the road
And flip it into park and smash myself
Into a million little pieces
I'm tired of knowing what about myself is wrong
But never mustering up the resolve
To really try to change it
[Chorus]
I walk outside and people say, "Hey!"
And sometimes I just wanna say
"Hey, go away, go away"
So I guess I better stay inside
[Verse 2]
I've read that if you just sit in a chair and think
Of focusing your nervous energy
On the beauty of breathing
You could live a life of real tranquility
But I just thought of every stupid thing
That's been keeping me from sleeping
[Chorus]
I close my eyes and it won't go away
I plug my ears, but they're ringing out
"Hey, hey, hey"
[Outro]
It keeps, keeps me from believing
That maybe someday the thing will work
And maybe I won't feel like a jerk
And maybe the words I say will stop coming out weighted
Maybe someday I'll wanna breathe
And maybe the people that I meet
Won't lead to a certain future where I'm betrayed
And I'm so jaded, I'm so jaded
And that, that's why I'm so fucking sad
