lyrics

we lost our minds in the town that we grew up in.
we wasted our time on the kids we went to school with.
escaping the influence of the churches
we found ourselves, together, playing music.

just like old times;
take a hit.
pass that shit.
hold it.

bar the doors of the house that you grew up in.
hiding from the step father you grew up with.

don't you dare drive home.
i know how much you hate him.

"unhinged dialogue that permeates disrespect."

why don't we tell ghost stories for hours?
hiding/sitting about your house hearing noises that frighten us to the bone.

who is screaming?

you're keeping me up at night.
you're so goddamn uptight.
you've too much imagination.
forgive my hesitation.
