lyrics

I wait for this town,
Fading in my mind.
And now I’m here.
The mold all stretched in time.
Feels like they know,
I’m nervous by design.
All of the kids stop to wave goodbye.
Red snow soaks into my winter coat,
and I try to hide my eyes.
I never thought that I’d be sick of coming here.
Today I only wanted,
To say I think we’re haunted.
You trace the washed out names in the pavement just outside. To say I never wanted,
You to feel forgotten.
Oh I love you cause I love to feel the pain,
Wash it down with Novocain,
And the years you wished I came...
I never.
Now outside your house, Sleeping as I wait. Parents are gone, Across the interstate.
Step out your door, Are we now the ones, People are jealous of?
I watch you disappear as I sit inside my car and act surprised, You never thought that I’d be sick of coming here.
Today I only wanted,
To say I think we’re haunted.
You trace the washed out names in the pavement just outside. To say I never wanted,
You to feel forgotten.
Oh I love you cause I love to feel the pain,
Wash it down with Novocain,
And the years you wished I came...
I never.
I never.
Red snow soaks into my winter coat, and I try to hide my eyes.
