Every time I go upstate, I sleep for days
Maybe I just get tired when I feel safe
All that's left are ghosts in my hometown
They tell me to slow down
And I sleep for days
There's a hole in the yard where the swings used to be
Everyone I think to call all forgot about me
But I step off the train and I'm met with a smile
So I stay for a while 'cause
Every time I go upstate, I sleep for days
Maybe I just get tired when I feel safe
All that's left are ghosts in my hometown
They tell me to slow down
And I sleep for days, oh
Places I would avoid, now I go just to see
If they feel at all the same as when I was sixteen
And I'm not scared to walk into you anymore
What is left from before?
Now, who would've thought that I was all that stressed?
But all my sleep deficit lies in my childhood bed, oh
Every time I go upstate, I sleep for days
Maybe I just get tired when I feel safe
All that's left are ghosts in my hometown
That tell me to slow down
And I sleep for days
I sleep for days
