lyrics

V I C T O R I A N H O U S E

[verse]
Driving through this antique town
Talk about a Victorian house
The quality of those days
Well, it’s all been replaced
By quantity, we’re all just thrown it away
I watched your mouth make connection with a metaphor
Your eyes shoot back and forth
Like someone you know has said those words before.

[Chorus]
Am I still your throwback
Am I still your favorite memories
My backs been thrown out
Tryin to carry around your lean
Now everybody wants some
Yeah, it’s the whole town
With pitchforks and torches
Lighting up the front of my house

[verse]
It’s always late when you come around.
You’re in my dreams. You’re the small sounds of my house
That I can’t explain,
I just brush it off
Like I don’t hear your footsteps
comin’ down the hall
I just Imagine I must just be imagining
Feelings surface I do my best to drown it out
but I cry every time I watch fox and the hound

[Chorus]
Am I still your throwback
Am I still your favorite memories
My backs been thrown out
Tryin to carry around your lean
Now everybody wants some
Yeah, it’s the whole town
With pitchforks and torches
Lighting up the front of my house

[break]
Do you still lye in bed awake at night struggling to sleep
do you still Count the bad things, that you can’t change, that no one will seem to ever be able to change
Do you still wait for the dreams to come and sweep you off your feet like you used to do for me
do you still think of me
The Curtain drops
They stand and applaud
What a closing scene
I’ve never felt such a heavy feeling
