Lyrics to Gridlock
I don't wanna go back to the daily routine
Don't put me back in that world
And I know there's comfort in consistency
And lookin' like every boy or girl
After twenty-five years, I forget what it’s like
To do the same old shit
On every Saturday night

And all this gridlock (Gridlock)
Comin’ in hot
Got me shell shocked
Tell me why time’s gotta stop?
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
Party’s over, time to run it home

And it’s a slow burn baby
I can never ignite
'Til I’m already underwater
Feelin' barely alive
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
I don’t know if I can let it go
When collisions are all I know

Countin' all the drivers, glued to their phones
I stopped after twenty-two
MAGA sticker on the back of Japanese cars
Buddy I'm just as confused as you
For a moment I think about my mom and my dad
Was this the life that they wanted or was it really that bad?

And all this gridlock (Gridlock)
Comin’ in hot
Got me shell shocked
Tell me why time’s gotta stop?
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
Party’s over, time to run it home

And it’s a slow burn baby
I can never ignite
'Til I’m already underwater
Feelin' barely alive
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
I don’t know if I can let it go
When collisions are all I know
When collisions are all I know (When collisions are all I know)

I will stay clear of the drugs and the beer
Keep my Bible close and my crucifix near
Well the demons are comin'
They’re alive and they’re well
If I stay up past eleven
I’ll be starin' at Hell

And all this gridlock (Gridlock)
Comin’ in hot
Got me shell shocked
Tell me why time’s gotta stop?
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
Party’s over, time to run it home

And it’s a slow burn baby
I can never ignite
'Til I’m already underwater
Feelin' barely alive
Oh-oh-oh (Oh-oh-oh)
I don’t know if I can let it go
When collisions are all I know

When collisions are all I know (Gridlock)
When collisions are all I know (Gridlock)
(Gridlock)
