The Garden's All-Nighters Lyrics

Nowhere like a diner to get to truly know someone.
Like a library up 17 or a spin around the center of town.
The smell of saltwater. I left my pocket change at the Molly Pitcher.

A sound we can live with, no sound.
A smell we can live with, no smell.
A home we can live with, no home.

But the morning sun is not too far behind.
I'm lit up like the night sky- I told you I trust this place.

The night jug handles as I'm swept through northern lights.
Quick Chek coffee is cooling down.
We're sweeping along the shoreline,
On some journey I cannot repeat.
Matilda will meet us at Martell's
Barefoot in the sand,
Hanging on the boardwalk for dear life.

The smells, the sounds.
Long way from home, I can't go on.
The garden state.

I'll always bounce back down these roads.
Nothin' like home.
The garden state.

We danced and split. Exit 117 driving east.

I'll never turn around in the place where I was born.
I'm left without directions or a road to follow.

This song's about growing up in New Jersey, where TNTLLU and I are from. Jersey is The Garden State, get it? We also have more diners per suqare mile than any other place on Earth. The whole state's got sweet beaches, Quick Chek for North Jersey, WaWa for South Jersey haha

Northern Lights is a cannabis strain.

Its also a natural phenomenon you fucking pot head.

Now that somebody mentioned it, i'm pretty sure he's talking about the weed.
