Dolly Cash - Why Twelve

Verse 1
Where photographs fade, memories will remain
We immortalize our life, taggin names upon trains
We evolve from our mistakes, an gettin burned by the flames
We adapt and overcome, or go extinct with the change
We're putting up our houses, and their tearing em down
A hundred years from now I doubt you'll notice this town
Home is where the heart is, not a place in the ground
Wе can make the great migration, our strеngth is unbound

Chorus
I grew up here, used to be my settlement
Where I would get into my element
Used to hold a whole lot more sentiment
Till I realized it was only sediment
Used to think my future here was definite
But this land doesn’t have too many lessons left
Home is where the heart is, is what they always said
But now that’s just a vacant residence

Verse 2
Pages filled with dust
Cars have turned into
We thought we knew ourselves
Guess we had too much trust
We were cocky and were greedy
And consumed way too much
Now we're stranded on this rock
Seeking grace from above
Our greatness can define us
While our weakness can blind us
And if we're not careful
Life is quick to remind us
Chorus
I grew up here, used to be my settlement
Where I would get into my element
Used to hold a whole lot more sentiment
Till I realized it was only sediment
Used to think my future here was definite
But this land doesn’t have too many lessons left
Home is where the heart is, is what they always said
But now that’s just a vacant residence
