letra de small towns. - ada rook

[verse 1]
i can’t tell my dreams
apart from my nightmares
home or h-ll
was there a time when i was aware?
don’t move
stay motionless and just
stare down the memory
don’t come any closer
stay right there
don’t move
[verse 2]
is there a way
is there a way to let go?
without forgiving somehow?
without forgetting the shape of the hole?

[bridge]
inside this place
escape is all we know
run away condemn the memory
of what we call our homes
all the ways we were failed
made invisible now
as the sun descends
over the streets of small towns

[verse 3]
is there something
inside me that needs this?
i don’t know
do i secretly deserve it?
is there a part of me
that knows what happened?
why am i so sure i’m just dramatic?
i can’t feel
[outro]
human souls, she thinks, are absences
a hole torn into the being of every person
each a different shape
sometimes the edges line up
with someone else’s wound
and briefly, there is the illusion
of the absence being filled in again
occasionally, the jagged corners
lock together so tightly
that this illusion can sustain itself for a very long time
but ultimately, she knows
the emptiness remains
she walks her familiar street
in the haze of early morning
keeping something secret inside her chest
a tiny jewel, the size of an insect
a quiet understanding
that everything from here on out
is unknown
