Grip-tape Lyrics - Selections From Road Atlas 1998-2011 - Calexico

Wait to rise long after dark 

Been asleep at least three solid days 

Wandering round this house just like a ghost 

Searching for something in this life 

That would fill the holes and satisfy 

Your need to please everybody else 

While your nerves shatter and fall apart 

Wear out the grip-tape wrapped round your heart 

Now you're dressed and ready for the kill 

Check if your friends are asleep in bed 

Same ones who left you to yourself 

Make some noise and take a walk outside 

All those years you kept the pain inside 

Strangled any chance to love your own 

And veer from your collision course 

But you'd rather go out in a ball of flame
