Lyric Starters from Stick Season by Noah Kahan

Northern Attitude

How you been?

Settled down?

You feelin' right?

Feelin' proud?

How are your kids?

Where are they now?

Where are you?

What does it mean?

If I get too close and I'm not how you hoped, forgive my northern attitude

Oh, I was raised out in the cold

Oh, I was raised on little light

[I/You] bought some shit

[I’m/You’re] gettin' lost

[I’m/You’re] gettin' high

[I’m/You’re] all alone, late in life

[I’m/You’re] scared to live

[I’m/You’re] scared to die

You settle down

[I’m/You’re] gettin' stoned, then kickin' rocks

Stick Season

You promised me that I was more than all the miles combined

You must've had yourself a change of heart like halfway through the drive

Kept on drivin' straight and left our future to the right

Now I am stuck between my anger and the blame that I can't face

Memories are somethin' even smoking weed does not replace

I am terrified of weather 'cause I see you when it rains

It's the season of the sticks

She forgot that I existed

It's half my fault

I just like to play the victim

I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas

I'll dream each night of some version of you that I might not have, but I did not lose

That'll have to do

I thought that if I piled something good on all my bad, that I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from Dad

I am no longer funny 'cause I miss the way you laugh

You once called me "forever," now you still can't call me back

My other half was you

I hope this pain's just passin' through, but I doubt it

All My Love

‘How have things been?’ Well, love, now that you mention it

My folks still talk but they speak in these two-word sentences

[I’m/You’re] sayin' too much

[I/You] know how it gets out here

No winter coat could keep out all the cold of your atmosphere

Now I know your name but not who you are

There ain't a drop of bad blood

You got all my love while I'm still out here

Writе me a list of how it is, of how it was, of how it has to be

You burrowed in under my skin

What I'd give to have you out of me

I still recall how the leather in your car feels

At the end of it all I just hope that your scars heal

I looked so confident, babe, I swear, I was scared to death

I smiled stupid the whole way home

You said, "I'll never you let go"

She Calls Me Back

There was Heaven in your eyes

Everything's alright when she calls me back

Look at me and don't you lie

I could be your sacrifice

Don't you hold your head up high

For bullshit, I do not have time

I do not exist to die, but live to die while saving you

Does it bite at your edges?

Do you lie awake restless?

Why am I so obsessive?

This town’s the same as you left it

Your page was blank, but I read it

The radio is taunting me

I don't get much sleep most nights

I'm seeing you in every dream

If only I could wake you up

If only I could fall asleep

I'll love you when the ocean's dry

I'll love you when the rivers freeze

I was too afraid of living life in your footsteps

Still she calls me back

Come Over

I'm in the business of losin' your interest

I turn a profit each time that we speak

My house was designed to kinda look like its cryin', the eyes are the windows, the garage is the mouth

You won't have to guess who thеy speakin' about

Come over, come over

I'm in the process of clearin' out cobwebs

Feels good to be sad

My mouth was designed for my foot to fit in it

I promise you, darlin', with the view in the morning, you won't ever go back

I know that it ain't much

I know that it ain't cool

You don't have to tell the other kids at school

My dad'll strike it rich

We'll be the big house on the block

Someday I'm gonna be somebody people want

New Perspective

Silence is making me nostalgic

We were kids, but that don't make this less hard

If I could fly I doubt I'd even do it

I'd probably get high and crash or something stupid

You made this place feel just like Central Park

Paper bags drift wherever the wind blows and mine's full of receipts

This town’s for the record now

The intersection got a Target and they're calling it downtown

You and all of your new perspective, wish I could shut it in a closet and drag you back down

Gave me your word and now I can't pronounce it

No thing so sure that I can't learn to doubt it

Now the state bird, it sings our song so out of key

Everything, Everywhere

It's been a long year

Would we survive in a horror movie?

We trust everyone we meet

I wanna love you 'til we're food for the worms to eat

I wanna love you 'til our fingers decompose

Drive slowly

I know every route in this county

Maybe that ain't such a bad thing

Orange Juice

Honey, come over

The party's gone slower

No one will tempt you

We know you got sober

There's orange juice in the kitchen

It's yours if you want it

We're just glad you could visit

I've been ready for you to come home for so long

I didn't think to ask you where you'd gone

Why'd you go?

You said my heart has changed

My soul has changed

Now my face has changed

See the graves as you pass through

Not one nick on your finger

You just asked mе to hold you

It made you a stranger and filled you with angеr

Now I'm third in the line up to your Lord and your Savior

My life had changed, this town had changed and you had not

Don't you find it strange that you just went ahead and carried on?

The last time I drank I was face down, passed out there in your lawn

Are we all just crows to you now?

Are we all just pullin' you down?

You didn't put those bones in the ground

Strawberry Wine

Darling, speak to me but don't you say a word

Light a cigarette, I'll watch it as it burns

Remember telling me that you thought you were cursed?

I'm in love with every song you've ever heard

If I could lose you, I would

We buried your bones in plywood

Love is fast asleep on a dirt road with your head on my shoulder

Those things I miss but know are never coming back for you, darling

No thing definеs a man like love that makes him soft

If I was empty space and you were a formless shape, we'd fit

Love leaves little runway and every time we run straight over it

Growing Sideways

I took my medication and I poured my trauma out on some sad-eyed middle aged man's overpriced new leather couch

I said "I'm cured"

I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts

Keep the bad shit in my liver, and the rest around my heart

I'm still angry at my parents, for what their parents did to them

It's a start

I ignore things, and I move sideways 'til I forget what I felt in the first place

At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive

Everyone's growing and everyone's healthy

I'm terrified that I might never have met me

If my engine works perfect on empty I guess I'll drive

So I forgot my medication

Now I'm suffering in style

Why is pain so damn impatient?

And if all my life was wasted I don't mind, I'll watch it go

It's better to die numb than feel it all

Halloween

I'm sailin' away to a place I'm afraid of

The dawn isn't here, the sun hasn't rose

I'm drinkin' my days with the coastal longshoreman

They got money to make and children back home

The last that I heard, you were down in New Orleans

I drink 'til I drown and I smoke 'til I'm burnin'

Your hands are all over my scent

I worry for you

You worry for me

It's fine if we know we won't change

Collect every dream in these old empty pockets in hope that I'll need them some day

The wreckage of you, I no longer reside in

The bridges have long since been burnt

I'm leavin' this town and I'm changin' my address

I know that you'll come if you want

It's not Halloween, but the ghost you're dressed up as sure knows how to haunt

I know that you fear that I'm wicked and weary

I know that you fearin' the end

I only tell the truth when I'm sure that I'm lyin'

I'm settin' sail once again

Homesick

Two months since you got back

How have you been and are you bored yet?

The weather ain't been bad if you're into masochistic bullshit

Every photograph that's taken here is from the summer

This place is such great motivation for anyone tryna move the fuck away

Well, I'm tired of dirt roads named after high school friends' grandfathers

Timе moves so damn slow I swear I feel my organs failing

I stopped caring 'bout a month ago sincе then it's been smooth sailing

I would leave if only I could find a reason

I got dreams, but I can't make myself believe them

Spend the rest of my life with what could have been

I will die in the house that I grew up in

I'm homesick

Still

I don't want to say goodbye

It only falls into place when you're falling to pieces

You find love that lasts a while 'til you lose the reasons

You miss something that you can't place but you can't deny it

Don't know whether you want a place in the coast or the country

You can't stay here

It's hard to face and it feels too ugly

You light a fire inside yourself, let it burn

It's like I'm still here with you

And I used to watch my mother move like God was in the room

Grab a past box of photos, I rip myself open

I'm wondering if I'm callous but hoping, can I fix what is broken?

The View Between Villages

I'm splitting the road down the middle

For a minute the world seemed so simple

Feel the rush of my blood

I'm seventeen again

I am not scared of death

I've got dreams again

It's just me and the curve of the valley

There is meaning on Earth

I am happy

A minute from home, but I feel so far from it

It's all washin' over me, I'm angry again

The things that I lost here, the people I knew

They got me surrounded for a mile or two

The cars in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel

I'm back between villages and everything's still
