Alaska
Unpaved roads lead you far away from here
Unnamed faces blurry in the pictures you brought home
The journey there and back took five weeks of the year
What did you find there?
There's more hair on your face but as far as I can tell
You're the same person
Do you feel better now?
Took me thirty years to feel angry at all
There's a bird on my mailbox because the tears didn't come at the funeral
Feels like I've been left to fill the blanks
There are just too many pages I won't ever fill that space
You joked they don't have Starbucks and I think I got impatient
Said "They'll pay you to live there" and you just smiled at me
I've waited so damn long to feel anything at all
There's a bird on my mailbox because the tears didn't come at the funeral
Unnamed faces blurry in the pictures you brought home
The journey there and back took five weeks of the year
What did you find there?
There's more hair on your face but as far as I can tell
You're the same person
Do you feel better now?
Took me thirty years to feel angry at all
There's a bird on my mailbox because the tears didn't come at the funeral
Feels like I've been left to fill the blanks
There are just too many pages I won't ever fill that space
You joked they don't have Starbucks and I think I got impatient
Said "They'll pay you to live there" and you just smiled at me
I've waited so damn long to feel anything at all
There's a bird on my mailbox because the tears didn't come at the funeral
