[Verse One]
It smells like it should be snowing
And I've been frequenting a diner on Main Street
Where the waitresses are girls that graduated with me
Have problems with oxy, and can't recall what I had to drink
No one knows where they're going
They just know they want out of here badly
Like cigarettes dropped on a highway
They'll smash, and scatter, and burn out
Somewhere else without knowing
[Pre-Chorus]
I've got my grandmother's veins in the back of my hands
And just a hint of a South Philly accent
I was born here
(I'll probably die here)
Let's go home
[Chorus]
This town's got lies to tell
I'll wait around to hear you out
But I can't keep from digging up these bones forever
At least for now, I'll settle down
I'll try to find some solid ground
I lost my footing trying to get home last winter
It smells like it should be snowing
And I've been frequenting a diner on Main Street
Where the waitresses are girls that graduated with me
Have problems with oxy, and can't recall what I had to drink
No one knows where they're going
They just know they want out of here badly
Like cigarettes dropped on a highway
They'll smash, and scatter, and burn out
Somewhere else without knowing
[Pre-Chorus]
I've got my grandmother's veins in the back of my hands
And just a hint of a South Philly accent
I was born here
(I'll probably die here)
Let's go home
[Chorus]
This town's got lies to tell
I'll wait around to hear you out
But I can't keep from digging up these bones forever
At least for now, I'll settle down
I'll try to find some solid ground
I lost my footing trying to get home last winter
