valley - elle ryerson lyrics
[verse 1]
young little daisy, poking out of the grass
meets west coast summers
of smoke and ash
no lakes or oceans, nothing at all
nothing to surround me, but the beige of my walls
[pre*chorus]
the only thing to remind me that nature exists
was the sprinkle of snow on the mountains in spring
i knew there was more but it was hard to believe it
when the closest exist was simply
ceasing to exist
[chorus 1]
i don’t go back to the valley
don’t see old friends or memories
downtown therapy you will never leave this city
from new york, to philly to miami
you’re always alone when you grow up in the valley
[verse 2]
packed my boxes, donated my old clothes
no house key in my hand i could go wherever i wanted to go
[pre*chorus]
new license in a new state
send my ballot to a new place
till i’m working retail for a living
i will never leave this town of 2,000
[chorus 2]
i don’t go back to the valley
or see red dirt and the canyons
cracking under my pink cowgirl boots
i still have an accent when i say bathing suit
you’re always alone when you grow up in the valley
[bridge]
i’m obsessed with my bones hold my wrist and they might snap
no matter where i go i can still taste the ash
i thought this was my year but it wasn’t it
and you’re never you again when you live in the valley
