lyrics

the waves died down
i’m a sidewalk surfer now
my heart gave out
so i’m a pessimist and a cynic now

all roads lead to low
you’ll see them play pretend
a trail in the snow
you’ll find me at the end

looking so bored
looking so bored

i was such a fool to fall in love with you
we were green, you were yellow, i was blue
never one for games i don’t follow the rules
and i lose, i lose

my cousin ran into a great white shark
and i know its uncommon but it’s really food for thought
on the land there’s a man who’s there to see me trip
and i all i wanted to show him was a couple of tricks

the waves died down
i’m a sidewalk surfer now
my heart gave out
so i’m a pessimist and a cynic now

all roads lead to low
you’ll see them play pretend
a trail in the snow
you’ll find me at the end

looking so bored
looking so bored

i thought that it was cool to be in love with you
trying to calm my nerves with every bottle of booze
i was never good at math but there’s one thing that i knew
that one plus one… is two

my brother ran into a great white pile
he’s been sad for years he was happy for a while
on the ramp there’s a lip i’d really like to clear
my friend broke his arm now his bones are filled with fear

surf/skate/snow… bored

looking so bored
looking so bored

it’s never mine
i just rent it out
and as the sidewalk grows
the cracks in the pavement begin to show
i wished you stayed a while
i wished you stayed a while
oh i wished you stayed a while
but you looked so bored
yeah, you looked so bored

you looked so bored
