  • Two months since you got back
    How have you been and are you bored yet?
    The weather ain't been bad
    If you're into masochistic bullshit

    And every photograph
    That's taken here is from the summer
    Some guy won Olympic gold
    Eight years ago, a distance runner
    And that makes a lot of sense
    This place is such great motivation
    For anyone trying to move
    The fuck away from hibernation, yoo-hoo

    Well, I'm tired of dirt roads
    Named after high school friends' grandfathers
    And motherfuckers here still don't know they caught
    The Boston bombers
    Time moves so damn slow
    I swear I feel my organs failing
    I stopped caring 'bout a month ago
    Since then, it's been smooth sailing

    I would leave if only I could find a reason
    I'm mean because I grew up in New England
    I got dreams but I can't make myself believe them
    Spend the rest of my life with what could have been
    And I will die in the house that I grew up in
    I'm homesick
    I'm homesick
    I'm homesick
    Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

    I would leave if only I could find a reason
    I'm mean because I grew up in New England
    I got dreams but I can't make myself believe them
    Spend the rest of my life with what could have been
    And I will die in the house that I grew up in
    I'm homesick
    I'm homesick
    I'm homesick
    I'm homesick
    Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Writer/s: Noah Kahan
