LYRICS:
It starts off the same for every week
And ends with a game on PS3
Pick something right out of the drawer
Then hold it up against the floor

Spew some junk about no sex
Then a vegan comes just to say "Gex"
At the desk, look like a hoarder
Surrounded by some big blue border

I just want to break the mold
To not follow a path
But every week my life involves
Mentioning Barrel Blast

(It's closing in)
My screen is all burned in
(It's closing in)
I always have that stupid grin
(It's closing in)
And just like my virginity

I'm worried this 1080p outline's here for infinity

(I'm on the border)
Does my whole life need a giant watermark?
(Of starting over)
I truly really never noticed something so stark?
(Why is it this way)
These are some deep questions--this is getting too philosophical for me

(Blue from feeling like I'm suffocating)
To lay it on the line, it's closing in on me

(It's closing in)
It's always been this way?
(It's closing in)
Not sure if that's okay...
(It's closing in)
Constantly from day to day

To lay it on the line, it's closing in on me

    This song. THIS ONE SONG is all it took to cement Borderline Forever as my favorite video on this entire platform.
  • @ChristopherMoom
    Man, crazy how we have such a bangin' punk rock Scott The Woz song just for a blue border that made Scott think "hey that looks kinda neat" all the way in Episode 1, good stuff Garrett
  • @DaSheepKiller
    "It starts off the same for every week and ends with a game on PS3" 3D Dot Game Heroes reference 👀
  • @bluebomber875
    This is genuinely something I would listen to un-ironically lol
  • @Clodinator
    Isn’t this the guy that owns Sonic Jam?
  • @Wilburforce42
    Love the lil distorted melody of Scott’s outro in the intro here
  • @BlueLoch
    This unironically bangs. Same goes for every other Scott the Woz and Garrett collab. Chase, Joshua and Bennett did amazing job with the guitar and bass work! Same goes for Scott on the drums, wow.
  • @orbilu2
    just a guess, but it feels like this song isn't just about the blue border, and it talks about scotts burnout, i.e. "I just want to break the mold / To not follow a path". good job on the lyrics, scott and garret.
  • A genuinely poignant piece about the balance between doing something you love and the fears of falling into a rut where the rest of your life becomes the same repetitive song-and-dance while also blending in his trademark stupid humor. I guess that could describe the whole video, huh?
  • @mmgmagic
    Man, and just when I thought that "Why Don't You Play Them?" was the peak of Scott The Woz music, good job!
  • @Umbras_
    this song can be rated with the number of wii play scott has 14/10
  • @ZukesersYT
    God hearing scott the woz sing punk rock is so weird in a good way
  • @wyattwayn7538
    Such an amazing Grunge-esque song. Feels like there was a lot of inspiration between Nirvana and the Foo Fighters, and I'm loving it! It's insane how you can go from producing funk songs and Grunge songs on a dime with both sounding great! Keep it up man!
  • @MapleSyrup2002
    I'm really glad to hear Linkin Park is still making music
  • @DaSheepKiller
    I think this is my new favorite Scott The Woz song.
  • @saiksthefox3544
    The best Scott song to date, something even better than Why Don't You Play Them. Also, don't pay attention to that blue on the side of your vision.
