Standish Anthem

Ghosts of luanne and scott out haunting the backyard
Names carved in the pavement
Sean 1982
Where smoking's the tradition
Passed down from father to daughter

Haunted by my dad's breath in '89
When metallica was his king
And there was so much to see

Neighbor's outta jail
Beat the shit out of his sister
High school classmate burned his house down
With his family sleeping

Backroads are the way to midwestern heart
Where small town fantasy
Meets scraped up bandaged knees
And I know I'll always come back
