Noah Kahan - Stick Season lyrics

As you promised me that I was
More than all the miles combined
You must've had yourself a change of
Heart like halfway through the drive
Because your voice trailed off exactly as
You passed my exit sign
Kept on drivin' straight and left
Our future to the right
Now I am stuck between my anger and
The blame that I can't face
And memories are somethin' even smoking
Weed does not replace
And I am terrified of weather 'cause
I see you when it rains
Doc told me to travel
But there's COVID on the planes

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

So I thought that if I piled
Something good on all my bad
That I could cancel out the
Darkness I inherited from Dad
No, I am no longer funny 'cause
I miss the way you laugh
You once called me "forever
" now you still can't call me back

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

Oh, that'll have to do my other half was you
I hope this pain's just passin' through
But, I doubt it

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
Have to do
