"Patterson-Gimlin" lyrics

I just get drunk at my parents house
I don't go to bars in my hometown
Everyone that I used to know just kinda bums me out
Valedictorian's climbing pyramids
Homeschooling both her kids
Plantation wedding and she won't feel weird about it
And the bully from the the bus stop
Is now getting accolades now as a cop
Gym teacher just tried to sell me her gun in the parking lot

The greatest distance between two places
Isn't measured in mileage signs
The greatest distance between two places
Oh it's time time time
Another year on Mr. Bones Wild Ride

When I'm at my parents
I can still hear the cannons
Of the reenactment of the war I'm glad we lost
But I'm doing the same shit
Rewriting narratives
Trying to reckon who I am with where I'm from

Maybe this is actually what I'm scared of

The greatest distance between two places
Isn't measured in mileage signs
The greatest distance between two places
Oh it's time time time
Blinkin' out like the brown mountain lights

This whole town is starting to Patterson-Gimlin
It's all shake and fuzz the more we zoom in
This whole town is starting to Patterson-Gimlin
It's all shake and fuzz the more we zoom in

This whole town is starting to Patterson-Gimlin
It's all shake and fuzz the more we zoom in
This whole town is starting to Patterson-Gimlin
It's all shake and fuzz the more we zoom in
