I go down Seventh
Watch my reflection in the windows as I stumble by
Searching hard for a sliver of a history
A glimmer that I recognize
Get it all out now
But it always stays inside instead
I've been screaming in the canyons downtown
But the buildings got the same reply
This place feels haunted
Ever since we went away
I know it was home for a while
But now it's just an exit on an interstate
Turn the radio up
So loud that I can feel it burning in my bones
Try to conjure up the spirits from the city
That are better off just left alone
As if streets want to remember
As if a house could ever know that you had called it home
As if the sentiment of permanence outlasts
The indifference of glass and stone
This place feels haunted
Ever since we went away
I know it was home for a while
But now it's just an exit on an interstate
This used to be more than
Gas stations and out-of-state license plates
Thought it was something more
But now it's just an exit on an interstate
Find our old spot by the river
And I dive into the water cold and black
Hold my breath and let the current pull me forward
But I can't get the feeling back
After all that's happened
Have we covered this much distance since I saw you last
Is it true that our memories are certain
Or do we all just invent our past
This place meant something
Long before we went away
I know it was home for a while
But now it's just an exit on an interstate
Is this all that I have now
A handful of stories tethered to a time and place
Thought it was something more
But now it's just an exit on an interstate
Now it's just an exit on an interstate
Now it's just an exit on an interstate
