Lyrics

New England morning and a lager-wrecked brain
Pink swollen eyelids and a trembling frame
Cold burning water, douse the flames in my veins
Ghost in the mirror and spit down the drain

Gray running highway, the buildings and trees
Focus dead forward and I’m yearning for sleep
Sun cuts across so confident and free
Makes me so sad as the time passes me

Cause I’m a moderated man
I take the easiest way I can
Television takes command
I let it lead me by the hand

No life before coffee, no promise for more
Three granite steps and I’m unlocking the door
Open for business, we’re just another tiny store
It’s always a battle and it’s always a war

When you’re a moderated man
You take the easiest way you can
Television takes command
You let it lead you by the hand

Five golden pints always take us away
Blue TV lights and nothing to say
Stare at the ceiling, alone and afraid
Paralyzed with fear for the upcoming day

When you’re a moderated man
You take the easiest way you can
Television takes command
You let it lead you by the hand
