about

this song is about both growing up exploring my old cluttered, spooky attic and the last night I spent in the house I grew up in. on that night, August 20st 2013, I went on the roof, which was past the door that had the dusty old window.

I had just finished packing up the remains of my former life, ready to ship out to Chicago that morning (it was already 5:30am). I pulled up a lawn chair and stared at the stars in Fair Lawn, NJ, knowing that it'd be the final time in 18 years I'd be able to take that spot.

lyrics

Sunlight filters through the dusty attic window
A single ray of citrus slices through the grime
Feels like time's not real

Antiquated modems, shiny shiny heirlooms
Shimmer in the dust, glitter in the gloom
Sunlight bleeds orange tears

The spirits, they harken back
Oh the ghouls, they scream right back

Moonlight scintillates on the dusty attic window
A single constellation shines across the panes
Feels like so long ago

The tarmac on the rooftop, the cracking wooden frames
Cool underfoot, the paint's still the same
So long, my former years

And the spirits, they harken back
Oh the ghouls, they scream right back
