Max Frost - Suspended Animation Lyrics

Ted keeps his mind set in the haze
Closes the blinds and sleeps for days
Careful, but he don't lock the door
Bashful, the sloth hangs on the floor

Ted keeps his eyes glued to the tube
Born in a brain that he don't use
Flies on the dishes in the sink
Hard thoughts that he can't stand to think

What he's waiting for, he doesn't know
He hopes it finds him before he's old
Inside he's waging war
Because his stoner mind is so confined
In frozen time, the longing in his soul

It's alright, you're still young
You've got everything behind you but yourself
You're playing the wrong game, son
Spending your days in suspended animation

Watching the robot-zombie die
Thumbing the A, B, X, and Y
Sony speakers sing tear the tunes
Listens to rap, but lives the blues

Catches a scent, he's kinda ripe
Can't take a shower, schedule's tight
M*A*S*H at 7, Cheers at 8
Like everything, the bath will have to wait

The master biding his time
But it's all he got
For never winding his own clock
If every call is declined
Then I suppose the guy you so resign
That no one tries to reach him while he rots

I really like this thanks for this

WHY AREN'T WE FUNDING THIS?!?!

great tune

great music, I have been listening to you since 2012. Still a great tune.

I really like a lot of your songs but this one I can't image what kind of person you knew in order to write a song drawing an image about 'gamers' as filthy home dwellers locked into a fantasy world with no outside interactions until they die having accomplished nothing. Not saying I'm offended. I play games myself, quite a bit actually. I just found this so out there and portrayed so unrealistically. Either way I guess you knew that one guy who was like this, the song just made it sound like that one bad person stands for all of us.

It's not all about video games, it's about wasting time. As fun as video games are it's doesn't exactly make any tangible improvements

James Goldberg you're literally missing the point. He isn't saying that about gamers. It's an expression of his own self. why does everything have to be fucking negative. This song is awesome.

James Goldberg fuck off

I didn't see that you had made a new account, and nearly died when I saw that some of your songs had disappeared. I have a lot of respect for your sound, and love listening to your tunes, Max. I heard "Be Who You Want To Be," and thought it was just about the best song I have ever heard. (Thank you Spotify!) I've been a loyal fan ever since. Keep on jamming! ^_^
