Noah Kahan Lyrics

"Stick Season"

As you promised me that I was more than all the miles combined

You must have had yourself a change of heart like halfway through the drive

Because your voice trailed off exactly as you passed my exit sign

Kept on driving straight and left our future to the right

Now I am stuck between my anger and the blame that I can't face

And memories are something even smoking weed does not replace

And I am terrified of weather 'cause I see you when it rains

And doc told me to travel but there's COVID on the planes

And I, love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks

And I, saw your mom, she forgot that I existed

And it's, half my fault but I just like to play the victim

I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas

And I'll, dream each night of some version of you

That I, might not have but I did not lose

Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes

And I'm split in half but that'll have to do

So I thought that if I piled something good on all my bad

That I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from dad

No and I'm no longer funny but I miss the way you laugh

You once called me forever now you still can't call me back

And I, love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks

And I, saw your mom, she forgot that I existed

And it's half my fault but I just like to play the victim

I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas

And I'll, dream each night of some version of you

That I, might not have but I did not lose

Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes

And I'm split in half but that'll have to do

Oh that'll have to do

My other half was you

I hope this pain's just passing through

But I doubt it

And I, love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks

And I, saw your mom, she forgot that I existed

And it's half my fault but I just like to play the victim

I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas

And I'll, dream each night of some version of you

That I, might not have but I did not lose

Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes

And I'm split in half but that'll have to do

Have to do

Song of the Day: Miss Grit - Lain (phone clone)

Sometimes a song just catches you with a great vibe.  This is one that I wasn't expecting to grab me, but here I am still listening, over and over.

Miss Grit - Lain (phone clone) [Official Video]

Hold up your hands if you can’t hold up the act

Hold up your hands if your two lives overlap

Lain (phone clone)

Miss Grit

 

[Verse 1]

I didn’t ask for this

I wanted to go back the first time

But then you hold me closer

And the lights keep flashing

[Refrain]

Hold up your hands if you can’t hold up the act

Hold up your hands if your two lives overlap

Hold up your hands if you want your memories back

Hold up your hands and let go of your phone clone

[Verse 2]

And what’s the point of being so profound

When all l’ll be is contained in this so vague membrane

In what’s remembered is only where l’m found

So I’ll remember you if you will remember me

[Refrain]

Hold up your hands if you can’t hold up the act

Hold up your hands if your two lives overlap

Hold up your hands if you want your memories back

Hold up your hands and let go of your phone clone

[Bridge]

I don’t wanna see everything anymore

I don’t wanna be everything anymore

I don’t wanna see everything anymore

I don’t wanna be everything anymore

I don’t wanna see everything anymore

I don’t wanna be everything anymore

I don’t wanna see everything anymore

I don’t wanna be everything anymore

[Refrain]

Hold up your hands if you can’t hold up the act

Hold up your hands if your two lives overlap

Hold up your hands if you want your memories back

Hold up your hands and let go of your phone clone
