lyrics

Homesick

When I drive through my hometown, get turned around
They filled in the holes in the walls or they tore ‘em down
That old pawn shop’s a dispensary now
The thrift store closed but still somehow
Everyone’s dressed up like their somebody else

I feel like a tourist on a merry-go-round
With a tare in her jeans, a crack in the common ground
Drive by your house, don’t even slow down
Run through a red like a purebred greyhound
I got out, I don’t want to go back now

Sentimentalist
Sick with the feeling
Melancholic dip
Mouth full of chlorine i
Forget how to swim
memory reeling, I always skip the end

One summer we worked at the legion pouring light beer
For some old-time war heroes ‘til one day they disappear
Felt bad for Pauline, she was a dear
But each night she called and I said “he’s not here”
One day it was true, think she knew it was comin for years

We both got the boot from the boss on the same day
You were always running your mouth and I was running late
Back when there wasn’t a target to make
Back when we still had plans to break
You’d take a leap of face and fall on your face

Sentimentalist
Why fight a feeling you
know you’ll never win
Can’t keep a season from coming to an end
Blood orange peeling,
A snake shedding her skin
Like everyone I have ever been

I don’t want my mother to worry, but I wonder sometimes
Will I carry this feeling for my whole entire life?
Did you want to hurt me? Did you do it in spite?
Some broken bones won’t ever set right.
Some fevers won’t break no matter how high
