about
An ode to my time in Indianapolis, "India-no-place" and "Naptown," as the locals would sometimes call it. 3 winters and lots of time to reflect.
lyrics
From the banks of the White River to the Carmel subdivisions We’re all headed up to bed now, turning off our televisions
And these days they feel so short now, not like when we were kids, riding bikes around the neighborhood not knowing workday dread.
They say it’s no place but it’s our place
From the start of something quiet this whole place will get loud
They say we're no place but it’s our place
Let's get it started now, hey drummer count us down
Heading south down on Meridian, past mansions big and small
Makes working seem so pointless, it's not working at all
And all this screaming at the news today, it’s a non-stop hit-and-run
But it's almost feels normal, another coward with a gun
And your brother stays out all night with a boy that's Steven's son
But at least they've got each other, they're not hurting anyone
They say it’s no place but it’s our place
From the start of something quiet this whole place will get loud
They say we're no place but it’s our place
Help keep me smiling now, I'm feeling pretty down
Sometimes, I lose my way
When I'm sleeping on the sofa, when I'm in a different place
Sometimes, I don't know what to say
But at long as you’re beside me then we're gonna find a way
And those Motorola phones from 1997, well they still seem pretty cool now, standing outside the 7-11
But all feels so temporary and it doesn’t mean a thing
And I’d rather be no place with you so I’m giving you a ring
And I think we should get married, get a dog and a modern vice, but we can't put our goddamn phones down, and a daughter would be nice.
They say it’s no place but it’s our place
From the start of something quiet this whole place will get loud
They say we're no place but it’s our place
You keep me laughing so I'm gonna stick around
You make me happy so I'm gonna make you proud.
Sometimes, I don't know what to say
