my parents’ house

When I come up in conversation
Am I still the subject you're changing
Does my name taste sweet or bitter to you now
When you looked up back of your mind
For the day that I left for the last time
As it all too easy for you to see
Cause I bury the hatchets
But watch them come back
A perennial problem that nobody asked for
I'm sorry for haunting the town that you Have to call home
But when you're driving past my parents' house
Are you wondering what I'm doing now
Have you tried to put the past away
Or do you still take the long way
Past my parents 'house
Are you speeding by or slowing down
Have you finally left the past alone
Or do you still take the long way home
When you hear between the lines 'Now
Are you turning the radio way down
Does it hit you just a little too close to home
Cause I bury the hatchets
But watch them come back
A perennial problem
That nobody asked for
I'm sorry for haunting
The streets that you have to still roam
But when you're driving past my parents 'house
Are you wondering what I'm doing now
Have you tried to put the past away
Or do you still take the long way
Past my parents 'house
Are you speeding by or slowing down
Have you finally left the past alone
Or do you still take the long way home
