georgia Lyrics

I was five in 1993

The georgia june air sweet

With cooked coca cola and tree

Pollen fallin like ash

Golden on the grass

Watch the summer pass

Outside the window

And in 1996

We passed around a torch

Made airplanes out of sticks

The dog fell off the porch

Or he got kicked

I remember how he limped

Around the house

Like he was lost

The creek orange from the clay

And barely living

Room darker than a cave

Staring into the kitchen where they stood

A spark drifting to dry wood

Primed to immolate

Fascinating if it was

Some family on tv

Sometimes even now

The memories captivate me

With meaning or without

Crushed pennies on the tracks

Chipped bones on the stairs

Yellow jackets in your hair

Oh Decatur

Oh Decatur

You can't love her like you should

You can't hate her like you want to

Oh decatur

Oh decatur

You can't love her like you should

You can't hate her like you want to
