There was an abandoned house we lived next to With a broken pool that we'd sit next to It was full of shopping carts, a mattress, and old car parts We'd goof around like it was our pool, you'd laugh and set your toes into We'd watch the sun go down over the overpass where endless miles of cars would pass We'd listen to the crooners croon and make drinks with a blender your mom gave to me and you We came home one night and our door was open Most of our things were gone or broken All our clothes were thrown around the rooms and even our pictures were wrecked too And the overpass where the endless miles of cars would pass, it hummed night and day and night and day We used to think it sounded like a river, but all that slipped away that day
