My brother is the lead singer for this band. So for anyone that wanted to know,
-"Tower tops burning red" is a reference to the blinking red cell phone towers on Asa's drive back home.
-On those trips, he would listen to Sunny Day Real Estate.
-The town we grew up in has one claim to fame, demolition derbies.
The entire song is basically a reference to driving home to Griggsville, Illinois, home of "demo car city".
The rest of the song is pretty literal.

Hope this helped.
