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

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 plućima do puta počne put
Kao što je posljednji od bubica ponovo ostavljaju svoje domove
I razdvajam put niz sredinu
Na trenutak se svijet čini tako jednostavnim
[VERSE 2]
Osjetite nalet moje krvi, opet sam sedamnaest godina
Ne plašim se smrti, opet imam snove
To je samo ja i krivulja doline
A tu je minder na zemlji, sretan sam
[Pre-hor]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Prošao je cestu Alger Brook, preko mosta
Minut od kuće, ali osjećam se tako daleko od toga
Smrt mog psa, razmak moje kože
Sve je opterećeno preko mene, opet sam ljuta
Stvari koje sam ovdje izgubio, ljudi koje sam znao
Doveli su me okruženim kilometrom ili dva
Automobil je obrnuto, jahnem kotač
Vratio sam se između sela i sve je još uvijek
[Most: Hazel Lewis, Melvin Coburn, Noah Kahan]
Kad sam, za mene lično
Našao sam grad dovoljno velikom 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, pretpostavljam da je to mali - (ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
Mala zajednica uh, ljudi koji zaista gledaju jedno za drugo (ah, ah, ah)
I to je isti način sa bilo kome koji 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 znao
Doveli su me okruženim kilometrom ili dva
Ostavljen u groblju, vozim pored duhova
Ruke su im produžene, oči su mi se počinju zatvarati
Automobil je obrnuto, jahnem kotač
Vratio sam se između sela i sve je još uvijek
