Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Boarded-up dreams on Stone Street Glass in the grass by the swing set Same siren song every evening Same names on the bingo of arrest Fake smiles, fake plugs, fake halos Everybody playing dress-up with pain Mama at the window with her hands crossed Counting every car, every stain [Chorus] Port Huron ain’t home Just a pretty painted tombstone Got kids getting high to feel low Got saints selling hope by the gram Port Huron ain’t home It’s a map made out of scams If surviving is a crime in this town Guess I’m guilty where I stand (yeah) [Verse 2] Trap house glow in the daylight Mattress on the porch like a throne Old man wrapped in a thin coat Guarding half a smoke, half a phone Fake love in the back of the Walmart “Text me if you’re lonely tonight” She just wants a ride to tomorrow He just wants to feel alright (feel alright) [Chorus] Port Huron ain’t home Just a pretty painted tombstone Got kids getting high to feel low Got saints selling hope by the gram Port Huron ain’t home It’s a map made out of scams If surviving is a crime in this town Guess I’m guilty where I stand (hey) [Bridge] How much rot can one small river carry Before it drags us under the ice I’m tired of calling this surviving When it feels like rolling dice Tell me, is there more than these corners More than watching friends fade out If hope is a rumor in alleys I’ll scream it, I’ll scream it loud [Chorus] Port Huron ain’t home Just a pretty painted tombstone Got kids getting high to feel low Got saints selling hope by the gram Port Huron ain’t home But I’m still here, still damned If surviving is all this town gives Then surviving’s who I am (who I am)

rap, Gritty modern rock with overdriven guitars, roomy live drums, and male vocals on the edge of cracking. Verses stay tight and talky over a chugging riff; chorus explodes with wide power chords and doubled vocals, slight gang shouts on key lines. Bridge drops to half-time with bass and tom-heavy groove, then slams back in with a final, shouted hook., fake, rock
