Lyrics
Lost you in the basement on Third Ave.
Lost someone in a basement on Third Ave.
Living out the photos of the downtown scene
Recalling and reliving memories of the downtown scene through photos.
Didn't know you went that far, that you were tryin' to stay clean
Realizing the extent to which the person went to maintain sobriety.
You called outta work for the summer
Taking a break from work during the summer.
Just went back to your hometown to take five
Returning to the hometown for a short break.
Like the kids who always got a new Suburban after they drink and drive
Comparing to those who get new privileges after risky behavior.
Im heading out prepared to forget
Leaving with the intention of forgetting.
The memories I haven't even made yet
Willingness to forget memories that haven't happened yet.
Only ever see you at 3am
Meeting only at 3am, suggesting a late-night, possibly troubled connection.
Said you're moving out to your friends in the East Bay
Person moving to the East Bay and communicating it to friends.
Made out in the Union Pool bathroom cause I didn't know what to say
Sharing an intimate moment in a Union Pool bathroom due to speechlessness.
When you come back, if you come back
Expressing uncertainty about a return and anticipating a difficult conversation.
I'll have to ask you how it got so bad
Planning to inquire about the reasons behind the challenging situation.
But you'll fall off the wagon and say goodbye all over again
Expecting a recurrence of struggles and subsequent goodbyes.
Im heading out prepared to forget
Leaving again, still intending to forget.
The memories I haven't even made yet
Willingness to forget future memories that may be distressing.
Miss all the obvious signs
Acknowledging missing obvious signs, possibly related to mental health.
While I deal with my mind
Dealing with personal struggles while trying to understand someone else's issues.
