New Ohio Lyrics

Finding the gray in complete surrender

Like shaking hands with a closed fist

Tethered to a place from another time

Spent winter squatting in a mausoleum

Christmas dinner, served cold

Fireplace is warmer in my memory

New Year's Eve on the kitchen floor

Drinking with my brother, catching up, letting go

Ask about the neighbor who always wore a hand-shaped bruise

He said, "she moved away, but I'd still kill the guy that did it"

Your friends asked to see me, and my heart met my stomach

Seven months since you cut the cord

Swore they wouldn't tell you I'd been around

New Year's Eve on the kitchen floor

Drinking with my brother, catching up, letting go

Ask about the neighbor who always wore a hand-shaped bruise

He said, "she moved away, but I'd still kill the guy that did it"

New Year's Eve on the kitchen floor

Drinking with my brother, catching up, letting go

Ask about the neighbor who always wore a hand-shaped bruise

He said, "she moved away, but I'd still kill the guy that did it,

And I'd do the same for you"
