rochester

[Verse 1: socks.]
I still remember how you stared back at me
I barely knew how to speak
You barely knew how to breathe
I think about the way I always looked up to you
The strongest one in the room
It just felt safe to assume
It felt like maybe you and I were alike
It was the warm little light
That kept me up late at night
And it was like I saw the road up ahead
I followed long lines of thread
That tied me down to my bed

[Chorus: socks.]
I know that you were there to offer your help
But I would stay away from Rochester then
And i regret way I kept to myself
But there’s no way to do it over again
But there’s no way to do it over again

[Verse 2: socks.]
I spent some time away just finding a home
Had to decide if I’m free
Invincible or alone
No matter what, Rochester stayed in my head
But it was harder to see
As it all faded to red
The roses bloomed but I could just see the thorns
And I felt lost in the haze
Of this new life I adored
I forgot I knew someone who had the same fall
Who’d empathize with my ways
I really just should’ve called

[Chorus: socks.]
I know that you were there to offer your help
But I would stay away from Rochester then
And I regret way I kept to myself
But there’s no way to do it over again
(I’ll be there for you)
(I’ll be there for you)
And I can’t wait to do it over again
