Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Cracked decks on a dead-end road Hand-me-down Vans Laces blown Upstate sky Pale and wide We learned to fall Then learned to glide Taped-up wrist Fresh road rash Borrowed board Borrowed cash Parking lot kings after class Chasing sparks in the broken glass (hey!) [Pre-Chorus] AV room glow Blue on our faces Skipping through songs like we’re switching our phases [Chorus] We were upstate anthems Loud in the halls AV doors shaking off the cinderblock walls J-pop hooks and a feedback scream Idol hearts in a duct-tape scene Growing up sideways Fast and free Punk rock kids on a busted TV If you were there then you still know We burned our names in the Hudson snow [Verse 2] Taconic Hills Buzzed haircuts Sharpie notes on our paper cups Someone’s mix All sweet and strange Bubblegum words over guitar chains Late bus home Cracked headphones Static night on the payphone “Party at Bash?” “Yeah I’m in” Farmhouse lights Cheap plastic grin (oh yeah) [Pre-Chorus] Basement air thick All heart No patience Spinning like tapes in a cheap deck station [Chorus] We were upstate anthems Loud in the halls AV doors shaking off the cinderblock walls J-pop hooks and a feedback scream Idol hearts in a duct-tape scene Growing up sideways Fast and free Punk rock kids on a busted TV If you were there then you still know We burned our names in the Hudson snow [Bridge] Catamount nights Frozen breath Board hits ice Flirting with death Lift line jokes Nerves run thin “Last run down Then we’re diving back in” [Chorus] We were upstate anthems Loud in the halls AV doors shaking off the cinderblock walls J-pop hooks and a feedback scream Idol hearts in a duct-tape scene Growing up sideways Fast and free Punk rock kids on a busted TV If you were there then you still know We burned our names in the Hudson snow Yeah If you were there then you still know We’re still that shout in the Hudson snow

Verses stay punchy and nostalgic, pre-chorus lifts with bright octave leads, chorus explodes with layered singalong hooks and a brief halftime break on the last line before slamming back in., idol, punk, alternative rock, j-pop, country
