(Extended) | Air in my lungs 'til the road begins
As the last of the bugs leave their homes again
And I'm splittin' the road down the middle
For a minute, the world seemed so simple

(Extended) | Air in my lungs 'til the road begins
As the last of the bugs leave their homes again
And I'm splittin' the road down the middle
For a minute, the world seemed so simple
[Verse 2]
Feel the rush of my blood, I'm seventeen again
I am not scared of death, I've got dreams again
It's just me and the curve of the valley
And there is meanin' on earth, I am happy
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Passed Alger Brook Road, I'm over the bridge
A minute from home, but I feel so far from it
The death of my dog, the stretch of my skin
It's all washin' over me, I'm angry again
The things that I lost here, the people I knew
They got me surrounded for a mile or two
The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel
I'm back between villages, and everything's still
[Bridge: Hazel Lewis, Melvin Coburn, Noah Kahan]
When I, for me personally
I found a town big enough for anything that I want
I mean, I'm not a city girl, ha-ha-ha, by any means
Strafford, it still has a lot of meaning to me
Because I grew up there
Well, I guess it's a small— (Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
A small community of, uh, people that really look out for each other (Ah, ah, ah)
And that's the same way with anybody that needs anything
This— this community is there to help
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ooh (Woah)
Ah-oh
[Outro]
The things that I lost here, the people I knew
They got me surrounded for a mile or two
Left at the graveyard, I'm driving past ghosts
Their arms are extended, my eyes start to close
The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel
I'm back between villages, and everything's still
Zrak u mojim plućima dok cesta započne
Kao što je posljednji od buba opet napuštaju svoje domove
I spuštam cestu niz sredinu
Na minutu je svijet izgledao tako jednostavno
[Stih 2]
Osjetite nalet moje krvi, opet imam sedamnaest
Ne bojim se smrti, opet imam snove
To sam samo ja i krivulja doline
I na zemlji postoji zloupotreba, ja sam sretna
[Predhorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh oh oh
[Zbor]
Prošao Alger Brook Road, ja sam preko mosta
Minutu od kuće, ali osjećam se tako daleko od toga
Smrt mog psa, dio moje kože
Sve je to pranje zbog mene, opet sam ljut
Stvari koje sam ovdje izgubio, ljudi koje sam poznavao
Okružili su me kilometar ili dvije
Automobil je obrnuto, grickam kotač
Vratio sam se između sela i sve je još uvijek
[Most: Hazel Lewis, Melvin Coburn, Noah Kahan]
Kad ja, za mene osobno
Pronašao sam grad dovoljno velik za sve što želim
Mislim, nisam gradska djevojka, ha-ha-ha, na bilo koji način
Strafford, još uvijek mi ima puno smisla
Jer sam tamo odrastao
Pa, valjda je to malo-(ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
Mala zajednica, uh, ljudi koji stvarno paze jedni na druge (ah, ah)
I to je isti način s bilo kime kome treba bilo što
Ovo - ova zajednica je tu da pomogne
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ooh (woah)
Ah-oh
[Outro]
Stvari koje sam ovdje izgubio, ljudi koje sam poznavao
Okružili su me kilometar ili dvije
Ostavljeno na groblju, vozim se pored duhova
Ruke su im ispružene, oči mi se počinju zatvarati
Automobil je obrnuto, grickam kotač
Vratio sam se između sela i sve je još uvijek
