[Verse 1]
Static on the TV glow
Cartoons bleeding into late-night shows
Bare feet on that cabin floor
Pine and dust in every drawer
Mom calling from the porch light
Card games till we lost the sky
You laughed
I carved our names in bark
Now that tree just haunts the dark
[Chorus]
I’ve got VHS in my veins
All these ghosts in my window frame
Family photos like a séance in my hands
Time’s a stranger with my face
Always leaving
Never stays
I keep chasing that old cabin in my head
[Verse 2]
Old tape in my Walkman
Chewed
Sad songs in a plastic room
Flannel shirt and black nail paint
Taught myself how to love restraint
You and I in bunk bed talks
Trading secrets
Trading shocks
Swore that we would never change
Guess we lied
Or time’s deranged
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
How did summer get so small?
Folded in a drawer
That’s all
[whispered vocals] Every joke
Every bruise
Every burned-out day
Now it’s echo
Just echo
Echo grey
[Chorus]
