Lyrics:
When someone tells me they’re from Massachusetts,
Now I always ask what part.
I wonder if you kept the pilgrim ashtray-
if it’s still propped up on your bar cart.
Could make a grand off of the chain you bought me,
But goddamn, it’s not for sale.
When someone asks me who’s my favorite Batman,
I’ll think of you and say Christian Bale.
As long as I live I’ll remember the names
of your favorite beers and your video games.
The look on your face when you turned 26
and your dad got too stoned, yeah, that one’s gonna stick.
You broke me to pieces but I root for you even
though everything went up in flames.
I’ll never forget how I bloomed for your gaze
or your wall of guitars
or your video games,
Or your video games,
Or your video games.
Pick up your phrases, now I say “it’s aces”
but it always sounds so fake.
I wonder if your tongue is turning over
anything I used to say.
Your sister’s trying for a baby lately
and your parents got new jobs.
It’s getting darker so I turn you down but
I can’t turn you off.
As long as I live I’ll remember the names
of your favorite beers and your video games.
The look on your face when you turned 26
and your dad got too stoned, yeah, that one’s gonna stick.
You broke me to pieces but I root for you even
though everything went up in flames.
I’ll never forget how I bloomed for your gaze
or your wall of guitars
or your video games,
Or your video games,
Or your video games.
At least I’m treading water and not about to drown.
I’m not trying to find you, babe, you’re just around.
Everything reminds me of you even now,
Even now,
Even now.
As long as I live I’ll remember the names
of your favorite beers and your video games.
The fire in my gut that I’ve chased ever since, yeah, you set the bar,
You’re gonna stick.
