Lyrics

Redlines

[Verse 1: Sesta]

I even don't know how I got here

Guess we mess around with the wrong dog hair

If I can breathe well then I'll live so I'll stop here

Well I guess I'm cool just to rot here

When I'm sitting in the Yacht singing Gotye

Someone that I use to give a fuck about is not here

What ever he did with his time, well it's not clear

Just a little pot, never rock here

Get embarrassed when I drink claret

I dance like Peter Garrett all in front of my friends

But everybody in the street are tryna to make beef, uh

Should tried reefer and a fucking pizza

But that's the end of discussion they rush in

And peel while the neck is still gushing

And plus, the concussion from hitting my head on the gutter

Has turned all my brain into butter, what the fuck, uh

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Dance on Redlines, and you will make it home

[Chorus: Sesta]

I'm sorry that I drink and I get carried away

But that look that's on his face said he had something so say

And I tried to use my brain it only got in the way

And I promise I'll be all right if I got somewhere to stay

[Scratches: ADFU]

"Rock all the place and redline the kingdom"

"Danger, Code Red"

[Verse 2: Trials]

While I'm looking in the fridge for the last beer

Pop another Vali', thinking where I put the last year

Even if my mind works, still it's only half here

No lights on, nobody home, only dark here

While I'm pushing at my body 'til the last gear

Literally feeling it's starting to fall apart here

Every single drink, all I think is fuck yeah

Until I'm so flat I don't have it all upstairs, yeah

Oh Dan, he's so crazy

What a jerk don't work like a Band-aid Baby

Yeah fuck him, he's an astute student of losers

Short man, big mouth, Tom Cruising

Stupid like bringing a racist to gigs

Just such a shame that his face hit my fist

Nah, mane. Don't know what they in for

You wanna stop standing like you're carrying a rickshaw

[Pre-Chorus 2]

And you will make it home

[Chorus: Sesta]

I'm sorry that I drink and I get carried away

But that look that's on his face said he had something so say

And I tried to use my brain it only got in the way

And I promise I'll be all right if I got somewhere to stay

[Scratches: ADFU]

"Rock all the place and redline the kingdom"

"Danger, Code Red"

[Verse 3: Hons]

Hi, my name's Hons

And like Earl, done a lot of shitty things and, for that, I'm soz

Easy just to blame on the redline

Looking like shit, sleep deprived with my red eyes

Knowing that I should go home but instead I

Stay out drinking, way past my bedtime

Shit, now one night was enough for me in Iceland

Had my share of hangovers two and ain't ever been to Thailand

Raise the roof like I'm Galifianakis

At least that explains all the yack on my mattress

Too many nights can't remember what happened

Too many gugs not enough thug passion

And it tries to draw me back constantly

No idea why I can't drink responsibly

Life's short got to remember the lot

So I picked out a plot, rest in piece, sketchy Hons

[Chorus: Sesta]

I'm sorry that I drink and I get carried away

But that look that's on his face said he had something so say

And I tried to use my brain it only got in the way

And I promise I'll be all right if I got somewhere to stay

[Scratches: ADFU]

"Rock all the place and redline the kingdom"

"Danger, Code Red"
