Track 9: Hometown
A leftover song about my ex-fiance who still lives in my former hometown of DC. I love the place, but life brought me to Nashville. Enough said.

I’ll see you in my hometown, in my hometown, where you still live
Above all the ruckus that I miss, the city bliss
I’m hanging on a life change, a life change, I should put to bed
But I waited on a fast break from your wake that I misread

And things take time I’m well aware but this
Back and forth with you just gets me nowhere

I’ll see you in my hometown, in my hometown, where you still live
Overlooking all potential in the problems that give
An obvious obsession with the wrong place at the wrong time
Where we’re looking at the ceiling from the floor saying were fine

So get up get up go and dance around like a kid on too much sleep
We’re not slouching tonight as the room starts to spin
So get up get up yeah and wave your arms in the most peculiar ways
It’s quarter life crisis in full effect, we’re in full effect

I’m dying for your heartache, for your heartache, to shine through
So I can take a fast plane to DC to see you
Yeah but nothing ever happens the way that I plan because

Things take time I’m well aware but if
Patience is so virtuous then why can’t I just
See you in my hometown…
