I’ve been through ten high schools They start to get blurry No point planting roots Cause you’re gone in a hurry My dad keeps two suitcases packed in the den So it’s only a matter of when
I don’t learn the names Don’t bother with faces All I can trust is this concrete oasis Seems every time I’m about to despair There’s a 7/11 right there
Each store is the same from Los Vegas to Boston Linoleum isles that I love to get lost in I pray at my alter of slush Yeah, I live for that sweet frozen rush
Freeze your brain Suck on that straw Get lost in the pain Happiness comes when everything numbs Who needs cocaine? Freeze your brain Freeze your brain
J. D.: Care for a hit?
VERONICA: Does your mommy know you eat all that crap?
J. D.: Not anymore.
When mom was alive We lived half way normal Now it’s just me and my dad We’re less formal
I learned to cook pasta I learned to pay rent Learned the world doesn’t owe you a cent
You’re planning your future, Veronica Sawyer You’ll go to some college And marry a lawyer
But the sky’s gonna hurt when it falls So you’d better start building some walls
Freeze your brain Swim in the ice Get lost in the pain Shut your eyes tight ‘Till you vanish from sight Let nothing remain
Freeze your brain Shatter your skull Fight pain with more pain Forget who you are Unburden your load Forget in six weeks You’ll be back on the road When the voice in your head Says “You’re better off dead.” Don’t open a vein
Just freeze your brain Freeze your brain Go on and freeze your brain
