lyrics

Meet me at the park
Middle of the neighborhood
Do you think the boys will come?
No reason in particular

I knew the way there when I was a kid

Back when I was new
And every feeling amplified
I kissed you on the cheek
And hoped you’d wouldn’t ask me why

I knew the way there when I was a kid

And it’s a long way back to where I started from, I guess
And what do I know now? The trick to feeling nothing
All I’ve got to show for all that pain is a little bit of novocaine

A pile of broken bones
A couple decades later
I’m trying to recall
Where I left that old time capsule

I knew the way there when I was a kid

And it’s a long way back to where I started from, I guess
And what do I know now? The trick to feeling nothing
All I’ve got to show for all that pain is a little bit of novocaine

Flashlight in the dark
The ghost is in the graveyard
Catch her if you can
But I don’t think you’re fast enough

I knew the way there when I was a kid
