This song speaks to the suburban lifestyle which relates to the title of the EP “Rohnert Park”, a suburb in California. The narrator refers to the suburbs as “The Doldrums” and how the boredom and uselessness felt is due to the location in which he presides.
Can you help me out of phantom bay?
This place is a vacancy stuck in figure 8
'where nothing ever happens'
No one's ever late
Why? Tell me why? The dullness is filling me
I have to get away
Get this complacency out of me
I'm my own figurehead in my own state
Why? Tell me why the doldrums are killing me
Hold my breath watch my mind sift away
As useless as a compass in a hedge maze
Without a direction
Without a base
Why? Tell me why dullness is filling me
Living in the doldrums
Walking in the doldrums
Floating in the doldrums
Wandering the doldrums all day
