Lyrics These Rooms - B. Dolan

These Rooms

The show is over the doors are closed and the gates are opened
The money settled the van packed and the money is loaded
If you ain’t smoking you shaking hands and hallowing peace
Checking your phone while you climbing over the middle seat
Heading for home but the stretch of road that is in between
Letting you know that you owe the engine a little sleep
After the anchor in these rooms we bar room
Suspended between last night and tomorrow
A place where the scary spotlight cannot follow
And you can get a mattress and a couple clean towels
Thats right we are on a mission from God
Know how to bargain with the devil
Give them my card i need a late check out
I’ve been hitting it hard i’m trying to lay down
And trying to catch the cousin of death
Deep in the shadow of deth we come To get rest
And haunt retread ghost living under those beds
To tell us these rooms don’t know our names
Where we been or why we came
They don’t care because they don’t change
We leave here we leave no trace at all
These rooms don’t know our names
Where we been or why we came
And they don’t care because they don’t change
We leave here we leave no trace at all
Remember days I’m trying to make my way down in the city
Move out of the house and lived on couches
Know how to live simply
You had your doubts but we had no crew in here with me
You poppin bottles I’m trying to make a song that kills me
I slept in station obsessing on how to break the locks
Get up on the stage It’s all a slay I’m with the shorts
Till the last jaw drop make them all envy
And bleed for the people to see my full heart was empty
And when the show was over came the owners with their hands shaking
Wanting me to sign release forms and talking about my fan base
But hold up it feels wrong with all that i couldn’t translate
Had me at the afterparty planning to escape
Mama make it i’ll kick it to the door
Find a way to elevate you lean back to my floor
Then all four seasons remind me of the highest
I see the rock stars coming and trying to start a riot
And you can crash the place but if you break it then you buy it
And then replace it with another one just like it
Yea and then replace it with another one just like it
It goes rock rock ya’ll to the beat ya’ll
Then we beat up the mini bars and go to sleep ya’ll
My rock and roll lifestyle is catching all the flights now
Fall asleep in these jeans and never turned the lights off
Wake up in the morning and they banging on my door again
Too early for check out but fuck it i’m up and honoury
Daylight is leaking through burn marks in the curtains
People arriving and leaving taking turns parking their burdens
No signs of leaves but they work hard and earning
To stay here for a week you can learn a lot from a person
Tomorrow’s not certain so they charge us by the hour
I’ve searched in the top draw to find a higher power
But all i found was empty plastic bags from the dump
A couple common rammers and a couple expired tv guides
Leaving a painting patty incase you need to rhyme
But i just lay upton of the sheets and dream most of the time
