lyrics

Howdy friend you know I’m sorry
That I didn’t make it over last night
But you know
What with the way things are, man
Something just doesn’t seem right
You’re literally on the same street
And right now that’s just a little too much
For me to bear

We used to live there
We used to live there

I know I know I know I know I know
I know I know I know
You’re gonna tell me to get over it
That what doesn’t kill me
Helps me grow
And I get that, I do
But my heart’s too numb to beat
Much less understand
All I can do
Is stare

We used to live there
We used to live there

It’s funny ‘cause you used to live way down here, man
Way down where the wild things are
But now you’re living way up north
With white teeth
And a brand new car
I try to tell myself that a place is just a place
That memories are in my mind
That the distribution of [ain
Is not always fair

We used to live there
We used to live there

I’m going out tonight
Gonna do what I need to do
If I’m not back by the morning
Phone in a rescue crew
The wind while I wait
To be whisked away
Blew a warning
From where
I don’t care
Right down through my hair

We used to live there
We used to live there

Alright time to face my fears
Whoa there it is
The one I’m pointing at
Gaze up at the darkened windows
Turn around
Shed a tear
Walk back
Life is beautiful
This I do declare
There’s just so many facets
I’m finding it
Impossible to really care

We used to live there
We used to live there
We used to live there
We used to live there

Joe Dickinson Chicago, Illinois

Hi, I’m Joe Dickinson.

I'm a DIY singer/songwriter from Chicago, IL.

It's not easy, balancing the external demands of work/life with the internal demands of creativity, but I'm working toward a set of sustainable internal systems that will allow me to continue to write, record, and release songs. Hopefully for the rest of my life.

I appreciate you taking the time to listen. ... more
