When someone tells me they're from Massachusetts
Now I always ask, "What part?"
I wonder if you kept the Pilgrim ashtray
If it's still propped up on your bar cart
Could make a grand off of the chain you bought me
But goddamn, it's not for sale
When someone asks me who's my favorite Batman
I'll think of you and say, "Christian Bale"
As long as I live I'll remember the names
Of your favorite beers and your video games
The look on your face when you turned twenty-six
And your dad got too stoned, yeah, that one's gonna stick
You broke me to pieces but I'd root for you even
Though everything went up in flames
I'll never forget how I bloomed for your gaze
Or your wall of guitars or your video games
Oh, your video games
Oh, your video games
Pick up your phrases, now I say, "It's aces"
But it always sounds so fake
I wonder if your tongue is turning over
Anything I used to say
Your sister's trying for a baby lately
And your parents got new jobs
It's getting darker so I turn you down
But I can't turn you off, oh
As long as I live I'll remember the names
Of your favorite beers and your video games
The look on your face when you turned twenty-six
And your dad got too stoned, yeah, that one's gonna stick
You broke me to pieces but I'd root for you even
Though everything went up in flames
I'll never forget how I bloomed for your gaze
Or your wall of guitars or your video games
Oh, your video games
Oh, your video games
At least I'm treading water, not about to drown
Not trying to find you, babe, you're just around
Everything reminds me of you even now
Even now, even now
As long as I live I'll remember the names
Of your favorite beers and your video games
The fire in my gut that I've chased ever since
You set the bar, you're gonna stick
