lyrics

hometown remedy

a river runs right through the center of town
a train runs through the center of town
all of my friends are just hanging around doing nothing

i thought about escaping down the yellow line
at least a half a thousand times
but with this habit of mine i cant save a dime for nothing

so i wait for the sun and the rain to burn me up and wash me away
for the song in my heart to be forgotten like a long lost art

that’ll never quit come out right

someone's always talking about where and about who
people that you thought you knew
some of those girls even said "i do" already
some of my boys went a little too hard and didn’t make it out alive
you know some they drown and some they thrive

but i just wait for the sun and the rain to burn me up and wash me away

for the song in my heart to be forgotten like a long lost art
that’ll never quite come out right

anywhere you want to go i'd take you if i only could
we'd leave this all behind for sunnier days
rewrite all our memories and take back all our broken years
redeemed, relieved from always running way
