about

a song written as a goodbye to the Peach State and all of its peachy acids

lyrics

The perennials fall back
As winter takes hold
And you left me standing back there
Out in the cold

How'd you ever expect me to trust people again?

You've given me no choice
But to leave you behind
It was either die in this house
Or escape and close the blinds
You made my worth to you real clear
And I suffer to this day
You should've taken me seriously
When you thought I'd stay

After every piece you took off'a me, it's really a surprise
That there's any bit left to see in my freeze-dried eyes

But now I'm done making all your food when you leave none for me
And I won't give you no more money or scrub your latrines
You don't take care of your own
So leave me alone
I ran away for a reason

All alone, no friends, and that was fine to you
Seventeen and suicidal was fine to you
No outside contacts for an SOS
Nothing but music to cope with the stress
AND YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO WONDER WHY I'M GONE

The perennials fall back
As winter takes hold
And you left me standing back there
Out in the cold

But now I'm done making all your food when you leave none for me
And I won't give you no more money or scrub your latrines
You don't take care of your own
So leave me alone
I ran away for a reason
