Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Pulled into town on a Tuesday
Same three bars
Same bad plan
Your mama’s porch light still flickers
Like it’s waiting on a better man
I see my face in the front door window
Older eyes in a high school frame
Every hello sounds like “what happened?”
Every laugh says “you ain’t the same”
[Chorus]
Hometown heartless
You don’t love me like you used to
Every back road
Feels like it’s pushing me through you
All these old ghosts
Wearing our letterman names
Hometown heartless
But I still bleed when I hear your name
[Verse 2]
Church sign says “grace for sinners”
Right above my daddy’s grave
I leave my guilt in a paper cup
Next to flowers I forgot to save
Tire swing hangs over dead grass
We carved forever in that tree
Now it just reads “for”
Like it cut your name out of me
[Chorus]
Hometown heartless
You don’t love me like you used to
Every back road
Feels like it’s pushing me through you
All these old ghosts
Wearing our letterman names
Hometown heartless
But I still bleed when I hear your name
[Bridge]
I scream down Main Street (hey!)
Windows down
Just me and the ache
If I burn this place right out of my memory
What’s left of me to take?
‘Cause half of my heart’s in your driveway
Half’s in the rearview glass
I keep leaving and leaving and leaving
But you never let go of my past
[Chorus]
Hometown heartless
You don’t love me like you used to
Every back road
Feels like it’s pushing me through you
All these old ghosts
Wearing our letterman names
Hometown heartless
Yeah
You’re carved in my veins
Hometown heartless
But I still bleed when I hear your name
