lyrics

Rachel’s head in the kitchen sink
she’s dying her hair again
I think it’s red this time- auburn-
not like when she was sixteen

books stacked by the door
to hold the table up
one leg is shorter
and it’s been that way, I guess, for several years now

when we were kids, we only did the things we wanted
now it seems we only do things we must to get by
I’m not convinced this transition was easy
but her laughter takes me back there
when the puppy spills the dye

we spent so many midnights
down at the midway motel
when the hot summer rain on the asphalt
washed the chalk lines out
we were learning what it means to be
pressed between the pages of seventeen
so many midnights of bubblegum bar fights
down at the midway motel

Daniel has a daughter now
she’s in the second grade
I helped him carve a space for cigarettes in his bible
with a razor blade

then I’m back again
in the woods behind his house
two beautiful boys with wounded souls
making out

when we were kids, we only did the things we wanted
now it seems we only do things we must to get by
I’m not convinced this transition was easy
but I am pushing through the chapters we get trapped inside
