Dragonfly Creek (Intro)

I wanna be home
God, take me home

Took a trip back home to Pinecrest Avenue
It's only been about a month or two
But I'm eighteen now
All my neighbors are movin' out
The rain still floods the sidewalks
I'm taking my same route
And the streets all look the same
But the walking's different
Nobody knows my name
So I keep my distance
Before I pass the houses of all
The kids who screwed me over
I cry in laughter, thinking,
"god, we've gotten older,"

I smell the remnants of last April
Haunting me while I sleep
I see the ash from incense,
The rain scented ones you got me
Electric blue, it's calling you,
I see your silhouette
Standing behind me in the mirror,
Freshly hot-tub wet

Take my body and bury me
Behind my father's yard in dragonfly creek
Take my body and bury me
Before everyone's gone or forgotten me

Weeks of my life were forever wasted
On sitting on that wooden bench,
I sat and waited
I barely worked up an appetite for moving on
And then wasted more time
Mourning what was gone
All my friends and I, we love to hate on East
It's a good place to grow up in,
Then promptly leave
But when you see me melting on the moss,
Raining from my eyes,
Don't pretend I ain't cross,
Don't pretend I don't despise it

But you can take my body and bury me
Behind my father's yard in dragonfly creek
Take my body and bury me
Before everyone's gone or forgotten me
Take my body and bury me (I wanna be home)
Behind my father's yard
In dragonfly creek (God, take me home)
Take my body and bury me (Oh god, I wanna be home)
Before everyone's gone or
Forgotten me (Oh God, take me home)
Take my body and bury me
Behind my father's yard in dragonfly creek
Take my body and bury me
Before everyone's gone or forgotten me
