I'm somewhere stuck between
a bottle cap, pocket of your jeans
These kids play in cover bands
they can't slow down, don't know who Conley is
We'll praised the kings and queens
of our local tight knit punk scenes
taught us the faith you hold
can turn a fire hall to a home
I've drifted in tree rings and saw
the purity was natural
when the skin was battered, sure the bark grows jagged
the alternatives, are safely jaded
You said this place was empty
but there's still something floating here
lost teen reverberations
soak the air that we held dear
I felt a strong reflection
Of this spot's heartfelt affection
Cast through in sunburnt nights
it resonates through cultured lives
the culture that helped build out lives
the people pass, it never dies
We're shamed to chase the stars
but end up owning dimly lit bars
We're told they're burning bright
"filaments in dollar store lights"
built up to burn out quick
product of consumptions cheap fix
when you're done feeling grifted
just be glad that we existed
