Longview lyrics

I sit around and watch the tube

But nothing's on

I change the channels for an hour or two

Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit

I'm sick of all the same old shit

In a house with unlocked doors

And I'm fuckin' lazy

Bite my lip and close my eyes

Take me away to paradise

I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind

And I smell like shit

Peel me off this velcro seat

And get me movin'

I sure as hell can't do it by myself

I'm feelin' like a dog in heat

Barred indoors from a summer street

I locked the door to my own cell

And I lost the key

Bite my lip and close my eyes

Take me away to paradise

I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind

And I smell like shit

I got no motivation

Where is my motivation?

No time for the motivation

Smokin' my inspiration

I sit around and watch the phone

But no one's callin'

Call me pathetic, call me what you will

My mother says to get a job

But she don't like the one she's got

When masturbation's lost its fun

You're fuckin' breaking

Bite my lip and close my eyes

Take me away to paradise

I'm so damn bored, I'm goin' blind

And loneliness has to suffice

Bite my lip and close my eyes

I'm trippin' away to paradise

Some say quit, or I'll go blind

But it's just a myth
