"Call From Derry, Maine" lyrics

"Call From Derry, Maine"

Come back to Derry, we have to fight a killer clown
Come back to Derry, you remember, it's the town where you grew up
And despite all the memories you repressed it's gotta be there somewhere

Come back to Derry, there are lives that depend on you
(No way)
Come back to Derry, I don't care how much you grew, I need you here
(I ran away)
I've been stuck for twenty-seven years, I mean, it's only fair
(That's not fair)

Life is super fucked up
(No, no, no, no)
And I can't handle it alone
I've been talking to the dead, can't stop the voices in my head
(No, no, no, no)
I know you won't remember
(No, no, no, no)
But think about what you forgot
Is there an empty space
What used to take its place?
(No, no, no, no, no)

Come back to Derry, surely you will know the way
(Absolutely not)
Come back to Derry, where you used to run and play with all your friends
(I would never, no)
Every story needs an end
Let's end ours together
(End ours together)

Life is super fucked up
And I can't handle it alone
I've been talking to the dead, can't stop the voices in my head
I know you won't remember
But think about what you forgot
Is there an empty space
What used to take its place?
