Noah Kahan


Bernie Sanders sends out newsletters to us who subscribe and today he told us about Noah Kahan, a Vermont musician who is gaining fame and has performed on TV and in London and Los Angeles. So I thought I'd look him up, and I found this song that reverberates with me. I also have added his album Stick Season to my Apple Music library.
Two months since you got back 
How have you been and are you bored yet?
The weather ain’t been bad 
if you’re into masochistic bullshit
And every photograph 
that’s taken here is from the summer
Some guy won Olympic gold 
eight years ago a distance runner 
And that makes a lot of sense 
this place is such great motivation 
For anyone tryna move 
the fuck away from hibernation 
Woooo

Well I’m tired of dirt roads 
named after high school friends’ grandfathers 
And motherfuckers here 
still don’t know they caught the Boston bombers
Time moves so damn slow 
I swear I feel my organs failing 
I stopped caring ‘bout a month ago 
since then it’s been smooth sailing

I would leave if only I could find a reason
I’m mean because I grew up in New England 
I got dreams but I can’t make myself believe them
Spend the rest of my life with what could have been
And I will die in the house that I grew up in
I’m homesick
I’m homesick
I’m homesick 

Oh

I would leave if only I could find a reason
I’m mean because I grew up in New England 
I got dreams but I can’t make myself believe them
Spend the rest of my life with what could have been
And I will die in the house that I grew up in
I’m homesick
I’m homesick
I’m homesick
I’m homesick
