lyrics

June packed the bus with fans and sacks

Mango boxes rattled through the back

I swept the shopfront, counted cans

Watched my cousin wave from the van

The canal ran brown by the market gate

Ice in my bottle melted late

Motorbikes cut past the noodle stall

I stood in the shade and heard it all

One seat left on the green line train

One red towel on the iron frame

Everybody left with the same sunburn

I kept my key and waited my turn

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

My auntie's radio hissed all day

Tin roof drummed while the clouds stayed gray

Empty gold chairs by the temple wall

Dust on the step where the kids used to crawl

July came hard with jackfruit smell

Sokkhai Road baked in the kettle's hell

I fixed the lock on the blue paint door

Then heard my own feet on the tile floor

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

August rain hit the laundry line

Three white shirts swung in a crooked sign

Your group chat went quiet by the eighth

I watched the drain take a peel of faith

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

I stayed in town

I stayed in town
