Portland (Single)

You left in layers The last fight, the packed bags, the "just need space" Your flannel still smells like October I wear it more than I should say The ferry horn hits like a voicemail And the harbor looks colder than before I swore I'd forget you by winter But fall keeps finding ways to hurt more I'm at a bar face down Out here in Portland Slowly hurting Over the fact I can't get over you Same songs, same rounds Same lies I tell my friends I'm just tired of pretending That I don't still want you The lights on Congress Street flicker Like they know I'm walking home alone You always said Maine was a mood Now it's just a place I don't belong I see your face in the backs of strangers And in storefront glass at night I kissed someone just to feel something But it didn't even feel right You haunt this town like a hometown ghost Every coffee shop, every dive I know If I leave now, would I leave you too? Or just take the ache somewhere new I'm at a bar face down Out here in Portland Still hurting Over the fact I can't get over you Late fall, dead leaves Same jacket, no peace And I'm still stuck On the last thing you said to me
