lyrics

Driving up to my hometown
To help my mom tear a treehouse down
No everyone expects me to write a song about it
Who wants to hear another dude sing
About dirt roads and rusted up things
As if I grew up in a folktale and I need to shout it

Trees and trucks
Shut the fuck up
These mountains ain’t that tall
And that has to be ok
Someday

Walking slowly down main street
I kiss a lamplight and drag my feet
Curate an image of a place
And pretend it’s around me

Ghosts and grit
Who gives a shit
My story only shines for me
And that has to be ok
Someday

On the way back down 30 South
I call your name out
‘Cause I need to believe
You can hear me from the back roads
And if I go real slow
I might grab a look-see
As you turn your Chevy
On to 28 and I’ll speed up
As my heart sinks down
‘Cause I think if I catch you
I can keep you
But I can’t
It all makes sense now
I don’t miss this town a bit
I just let a part of me think you still live in it
