Eastover

(álbum: Legend Tripping - 2023)

My mom gave away your bike
Said it reminded her about that night
So I took the path straight to the park
Cut through the construction site

I stopped to sit down on your bench
Against the wishes of my therapist
And I won't deny there's still some bitterness
But I find every year the feeling changes

Your birthday's carved into the wood
And it's good to know that others still remember you
The date was off by just a day but it's ok
They don't know you like I do

You used to say this place was thin
Like a crossroads between dimensions
And at the time it seemed insane
But since then I've seen some things that I just can't explain

It's the place where we saw UFO's and shadows of Confederate ghosts
A place right down the road from my old house
And I still sift through grief for meaning
But only one of us can stay 19 forever, man

Wherever you decided to go, I hope the sun rose
I hope the sun rose
I hope the sun rose
I hope the sun rose
