Muscle Car from Total Collapse by The Empty Gestures
this song is about how when you take the final metro north train home after a show on a friday or saturday night you will encounter many drunk and rowdy hypermasculine men and it is about what i imagine some of their lives are like and how i wonder if they think about death as frequently as i find myself thinking about death

Lyrics
johnny takes the metro home from the city to the suburbs in the summer after dark when it’s cold late at night he stumbles down the aisle in his high-class 3-piece suit he’s drinking coors and completely out of his mind i’m feeling good tonight spending a night out on the town going for a ride this is the end of the line johnny needs an extra push when his mundane life has got him down so he went to buy a muscle car with the money he’s been saving he says it helps to keep him sane and he likes how it makes him feel real tough he likes to drive it fast i’m feeling good tonight spending a night out on the town going for a ride this is the end of the line do you ever think about how it could all end when forces collide
