Local Scene Lyrics

Pack the drums in my best friend's minivan

The guitars with your girlfriend

There's a VFW over an hour away

The only place that said we could play

On a Friday

It was standing room only

The half stacks blew the fuse

But we don't need a PA

Everybody knows the words anyway

It was more than a local scene

It was more than a local scene

All that's left is an empty basement

Did it even really happen?

In a broke down complex

On the edge of the highway

But it came alive every weekend

Hundred kids screaming every syllable

Doing what we can to feel something real

Did it mean for you what it meant for me?

It was more than a local scene

Stage diving off the mezzanine

Punched in the face when I turned 15

Now all that's left are the memories

Did it mean for you what it meant for me?

My first love, my first kiss

My first fight, yeah all of it

Went down at the venue

Went down at the venue

We used to stay for all the bands

I didn't care cause you held my hand

Went down at the venue

Went down at the venue

My first love, my first kiss

My first fight, yeah all of it

Went down at the venue

Went down at the venue

We used to stay for all the bands

I didn't care cause you held my hand

Went down at the venue

It was more than a local scene

Stage diving off the mezzanine

Punched in the face when I turned 15

Now all that's left are the memories

Did it mean for you what it meant for me?
