Noah Kahan — Stick Season

Noah Kahan — Stick Season — lyrics

{verse 1}
As you promised me that i was more than all the miles combined
You must have had yourself a change of heart halfway through the drive
Because your voice trailed off exactly as you passed my exit sign
Kept on driving straight and left our future to the right

{verse 2}
Now i am stuck between my anger and the blame that i can’t face and memories are something even smoking weed does not replace
And i am terrified of weather ’cause i see you when it rains
And doc told me to travel but there’s covid on the planes

{chorus}
And i love vermont, but it’s the season of the sticks
And i saw your mom, she forgot that i existed
And it’s half my fault but i just like to play the victim
I’ll drink alcohol ’til my friends come home for christmas
And i’ll dream each night of some version of you
That i might not have but i did not lose
Now you’re tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And i’m split in half but that’ll have to do

{verse 3}
So i thought that if i piled something good on all the bad
That i could cancel out the darkness i inherited from dad
No and i’m no longer funny ’cause i miss the way you laugh
You once called me forever now you still can’t call me back

{chorus}
And i love vermont, but it’s the season of the sticks
And i saw your mom, she forgot that i existed
And it’s half my fault but i just like to play the victim
I’ll drink alcohol ’til my friends come home for christmas
And i’ll dream each night of some version of you
That i might not have but i did not lose
Now you’re tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And i’m split in half but that’ll have to do
And i love vermont, but it’s the season of the sticks
And i saw your mom, she forgot that i existed
And it’s half my fault but i just like to play the victim
I’ll drink alcohol ’til my friends come home for christmas
And i’ll dream each night of some version of you
That i might not have but i did not lose
Now you’re tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And i’m split in half but that’ll have to do
