Текст песни Charlottesville - Speedy Justice

Got a new pair of strings, babe, strike the chords of my progression
On a guitar that taught me lessons through and through
I'm sorry I left without a goodbye, leaving you in your blues
But I know you've been dreaming, and all I can say is me too

And it can't last, leaving the Midwest and the past
What lies up ahead, leave alone what wasn't said
Things I don't remember, things best left unread

We sat upon the wooden stairs in the hallway
Waiting on the day to leave this scarred up place
Charlottesville's in front of me, Fort Wayne left behind
Asking questions like, why'd we grow up so fast
And it can't last, leaving the Midwest and the past

So I'm in a place with the damned history so long gone
Buildings have floorboards that sing their own lonely song
I sing the blues in this gray stained glass room
Provide me southern comfort through these times
Before I've got one message for all of you
I'm headed to Charlottesville, there's nothing you can do

And it can't last, leaving the Midwest and the past
What lies up ahead, leave alone what wasn't said
Things I don't remember, are best left unread
