(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 v mojih pljučih, dokler se ne začne cesta
Ker zadnji hrošči spet zapustijo svoje domove
In cestim cesto navzdol po sredini
Za minuto se mi je svet zdel tako preprost
[Verz 2]
Čutim hitenje krvi, spet sem sedemnajst
Ne bojim se smrti, spet imam sanje
Samo jaz in krivulja doline
In na zemlji je zloben, vesel sem
[Pred-chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
[Refren]
Mimo ceste Alger Brook, čez most sem
Minuto od doma, vendar se počutim tako daleč od tega
Smrt mojega psa, raztežaj moje kože
Vse se mi umiva, spet sem jezen
Stvari, ki sem jih tukaj izgubil, ljudi, ki sem jih poznal
Obkrožili so me kilometer ali dve
Avto je vzvratno, prijemam kolo
Vrnil sem se med vasi in vse je mirno
[Most: Hazel Lewis, Melvin Coburn, Noah Kahan]
Ko jaz osebno
Mesto sem našel dovolj veliko za vse, kar si želim
Mislim, nisem mestna punca, ha-ha-ha, na kakršen koli način
Strafford, še vedno mi ima veliko pomena
Ker sem odraščal tam
No, mislim, da je majhen-(ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
Majhna skupnost, uh, ljudje, ki resnično pazijo drug na drugega (ah, ah, ah)
In to je enako pri vsem, ki potrebujejo karkoli
To - ta skupnost je tam za pomoč
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ooh (woah)
Ah-oh
[OUTRO]
Stvari, ki sem jih tukaj izgubil, ljudi, ki sem jih poznal
Obkrožili so me kilometer ali dve
Odšel na pokopališče, vozim mimo duhov
Roke so podaljšane, oči se mi začnejo zapirati
Avto je vzvratno, prijemam kolo
Vrnil sem se med vasi in vse je mirno
