We Don't Live There Anymore

The home phone’s been disconnected
We don’t live there anymore
The moving truck went as expected
We don’t live there anymore
New folks will move in and paint over us
Over every uncompleted war
'Cause we don’t live there anymore
The children grown, the parents parted
We don’t live there anymore
The scraps of twenty years discarded
We don’t live there anymore
Photographs in boxes lay defeated
Familiar wounds festering untreated
Debris from my analog childhood not so easily deleted
That jungle gym used to be ours
But we don’t live there anymore
The shouting matches used to burn for hours
But we don’t live there anymore
Now history is filtered through a broken lens
The locks have changed on every memory’s door
What actually happened to us all within those walls?
Well I guess we’ll never know for sure
'Cause we don’t live there anymore
What a relief, what a shame
What a relief, what a shame
Yesterday will never be the same
Yesterday will never be the same
Yesterday will never be the same
We’ll never slam that kitchen door again
'Cause we don’t live there anymore
The things we never said are in the den
But we don’t live there anymore
And they will gather dust far away from us
Eroding in yellow tile floor
Cause we don’t live there anymore
We don’t live there anymore
