Meltdown

(album: The Way It Was Before - 2023)

Dipping my toe into the quicksand
Stuck here like Indiana Jones
Sink to the bottom I can die in slow mo

All the way down I hit the deep end
I'm on a journey to the core
Take me to depths nobody's ever been before

I'm Walter White pulling up in my eighty-eight Winnebago
Gonna sunset cruise the coast to San Diego
Gonna drive over the edge of a volcano tonight

I think I'm headed for a meltdown a meltdown for a meltdown
Can't think about nobody else now else now nobody else now
I'll continue sipping on this java swimming in your lava
Swallow me up until my whole body's on fire
Headed for a meltdown a meltdown for a meltdown

I was here you were there
Universe doesn't care
Maybe we're not meant to be together

Atom bombs, angry moms
Nothing's right, nothing's wrong
Maybe we should countdown to forever

If you could give me just a minute I can be a quick learner
Take it to the limit then take it a little further
Nuclear reactor I'm a bunsen burner
And I'm about to explode

I think I'm headed for a meltdown a meltdown for a meltdown
Can't think about nobody else now else now nobody else now
I'll continue sipping on this java swimming in your lava
Swallow me up until my whole body's on fire
Headed for a meltdown a meltdown for a meltdown
