Hometown from Changing EP by The Brazen Youth

Hometown

I got a scratchy throat and
It’s ‘cause I’ve been smokin’
Back in my old bunk room
I won’t have that pass soon
No way to get solace
Old man dead skipped hospice

You can hold my home down
You won’t be my home town
You can hold my home down

Back up in that bunk room
Sister has their saloon
American dolls are
Patrons of the store
And I collect old nickels
I’m not sure what they’re for

What about the basement
My friend died down in there
He’s a salamander
My young George they killed him!
Under a pane of glass I
Never told the plumber

He still holds the home down
Here inside our home town
He still holds the home down
(Here inside our hometown
Here inside our home now
Here back in the old town)

(you might be my hometown
you might be my home now
you might be my-)

What about the TV?
The one that’s up in Mom’s room
People would ignore us
We go to the forest
We go to the teepee
Here she comes on the ATV

That girl holds the home down
Here inside our hometown
That girl holds the home down
Here inside our home town
here inside our home now
here back in the old town
