Winesburg Lyrics

Three weeks from now

These roads will be streets that I used to burn down

And I don't know how to feel about it

Three weeks from now

I'll be telling Momma goodbye

Trying not to break down as she starts to cry

And ask why I had to leave so early

There's something profound

In this insignificant one horse town

And maybe by leaving I'll realize what that is

So sticking around has little benefit

But thinking that sure ain't helping this shred of doubt

That's churning deep inside my stomach

So don't think that I'm runnin' away

I just wanna see all y'all seein' me play

Don't worry Pop if you don't see me around

I know I'll be back but it's still hard on me

I don't really want to leave

I just need to move faster than my hometown

These Wineburg stars shine brighter

Than any Cincinnati streetlights ever could

And I'm sure those hipster restaurants

Won't make Crock-Pot meals like Miss Ina would

Maybe I'll have some fun

Livin' the urban way

But high school beer tastes better

Than any 8 dollar IPA

So don't think that I'm runnin' away

I just wanna see all y'all seein' me play

Don't worry Pop if you don't see me around

I know I'll be back but it's still hard on me

I don't really want to leave

I just need to move faster than my hometown

So don't think that I'm runnin' away

I just wanna see all y'all seein' me play

Don't worry Pop if you don't see me around

I know I'll be back but it's still hard on me

I don't really want to leave

I just need to move faster than my hometown

So don't think that I'm runnin' away

I just wanna see all y'all seein' me play

Don't worry Pop if you don't see me around

I know I'll be back but it's still hard on me

I don't really want to leave

I just need to move faster than my hometown

My hometown
