Noah Kahan Sentence Starters Stick Season (We’ll Be Here Forever)

Content Warning For: Suicidal ideations/imagery, mentions of alcohol/drugs, depression/melancholia, mentions of COVID

Northern Attitude:

How you been? Settled down?

How’re your kids?

Where are you?

What does it mean?

Forgive my northern attitude

Stick Season:

I am stuck between my anger and the blame that I can't face

Memories are something even smoking weed does not replace

Doc told me to travel but there's COVID on the planes

I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticks

I saw your mom, she forgot that I existed

I just like to play the victim

I thought that if I piled something good on all my bad that I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from dad

I’m no longer funny

My other half was you

I hope this pain’s just passing through

I doubt it

All My Love:

How have things been?

Well, now that you mention it

I'm saying too much but you know how it gets out here

No winter coat could keep out all the cold of your atmosphere

You got all my love

If you need me dear, I'm the same as I was

You burrowed in under my skin

What I'd give to have you out from me

I just hope that your scars heal

I swear I was scared to death

She Calls Me Back:

Oh, there was heaven in your eyes

Everything’s alright when she calls me back

Look at me and don't you lie

For bullshit I do not have time

Does it bite at your edges?

Do you lie awake restless?

Why am I so obsessive?

This town's the same as you left it

The radio is taunting me

I don't get much sleep most nights

I'm seeing you in every dream

If only I could wake you up

If only I could fall asleep

I'll love you when the oceans dry

I'll love you when the rivers freeze

I was too afraid of living life in your footsteps

Come Over:

I’m in the business of losing your interest

Don't you know there's a coffin buried under the garden?

You won't have to guess who they're speaking about

I'm in the process of clearing out cobwebs

I was taking the wrong meds

It feels good to be sad

I know that it ain’t much

I know that it ain’t cool

You don’t have to tell the other kids at school

Someday I’m gonna be somebody people want

New Perspective:

Silence is making me nostalgic

We were kids but that don't make this less hard

If I could fly I doubt I'd even do it

You made Ohio feel just like Central Park

You and all of your new perspective now

Everywhere, Everything:

It's been a long year

Would we survive in a horror movie?

We trust everyone we meet

I wanna love you 'till we're food for the worms to eat

Keep my hand in yours

Orange Juice:

Honey, come over

We know you got sober

There's orange juice in the kitchen

It’s yours if you want it

We're just glad you could visit

The last time I drank I was face down passed out there on your lawn

Are we all just crows to you now?

Are we all just pulling you down?

You didn't put those bones in the ground

Strawberry Wine:

Darling speak to me

Remember telling me that you thought you were cursed?

I'm in love with every song you've ever heard

If I could lose you I would

We buried your bones in plywood

I said love is fast asleep on a dirt road with your head on my shoulder

For you, darling, for you

No thing defines a man like love that makes him soft and sentimental like a stranger in the park

For a few moments, I see you

Growing Sideways:

So I took my medication

We argued about Jesus

I said I’m cured

I’m still angry at my parents

But it’s a start

I ignore things

At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive

I'm terrified that I might never have met me

I guess I’ll drive

So I forgot my medication

Now I’m suffering in style

Why is pain so damn impatient?

It's better to die numb than feel at all

Halloween:

I'm sailing away to a place I'm afraid of

I'm drinking my days with the coastal longshoreman

I drink 'till I drown and I smoke 'till I'm burning

I worry for you

You worry for me

I'm leaving this town and I'm changing my address

I know that you'll come if you want

There's a murder of crows in the low light off Boston

Homesick:

Two months since you got back

Are you bored yet?

The weather ain’t been bad

If you’re into masochistic bullshit

This place is such great motivation for anyone tryna move

Time moves so damn slow

I swear I feel my organs failing

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

I’m homesick

Still:

I don’t want to say goodbye

You find love that lasts a while 'till you lose the reasons

You miss something that you can't place but you can't deny it

It's like I'm still here with you

It's a bottomless hole I've found out here with a trace of no one

The View Between Villages:

For a minute the world seems so simple

I’m seventeen again

I am not scared of death

I’ve got dreams again

Your Needs, My Needs:

Oh well, who was I?

Who was I to watch you wilt?

You ain't gotta tell me what it means

You'll always be a flower on my skin

I promise to be there this time

I'm naming the stars in the sky after you

Dial Drunk:

I'm remembering I promised to forget you now

I ain't proud of all the punches that I've thrown in the name of someone I no longer know

I don't like that when they threw me in the car

I gave your name as my emergency phone call

Even the cops thought you were wrong for hanging up

I’d die for you

The dial tone is all I have

I beg you, sir, just let me call

Let's wait I swear she'll call me back

Son, are you a danger to yourself?

Son, why do you do this to yourself?

Paul Revere:

This place had a heartbeat in its day

The boys are drunk

But it just ain't that simple, it never was

One day I'm gonna cut it clear

I’m not from around here

I'll leave before the road crew's out

Folks just disappear

If I could leave, I would've already left

No Complaints:

Thought I had something

That's the same as having something

I'd get mad at nothing

Blame my dad for something

I'd pull no punches

Thought I was raised better

Hope the skin heals where the pain enters

I set a time, then I showed up

Now the weight of the world ain't so bad

I filled the hole in my head with prescription medication

Who am I to complain?

And now the pain's different

I can finally eat and I can fall asleep

Call Your Mom:

Oh, you’re spiraling again

Don't let this darkness fool you

All lights turned off can be turned on

I’ll drive all night

I’ll call your mom

If you could see yourself like this, you'd have never tried it

Oh dear, don't be discouraged

I've been exactly where you are

Throw a punch, fall in love, give yourself a reason

Don't wanna drive another mile wondering if you're breathing

Won’t you stay with me?

You’re Gonna Go Far:

This is normal conversation, babe, it's all fine

The college kids are getting so young, ain't they?

I got tired of the frat boys with the brights on

"This is good land" or at least it was

Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are

We're overdue for a revival

We spent so long just getting by

You told me you would make a difference

i am on my second noah-kahan-lyric titled fic and i realized i never did one of the lists for his songs as the crows.

i am still working on his other albums, but i have a stick season obsession and i will be using just stick season for this list. and i'll reblog with my edits once i've listened to his whole discography.

kaz brekker -- growing sideways -- "i'm terrified i might never have met me // if my engine works perfect on empty, i guess i'll drive." -- between this song and northern attitude, this one is more hopeful for his happy ending, i think.

inej ghafa -- the view between villages -- "the things that i lost here, the people i knew, they've got me surrounded for a mile or two." -- this song is the happy ending of the story in this album in the exact same way that inej leaving ketterdam is her happy ending in the duology.

jesper fahey -- homesick -- "this place is such great motivation for anyone trying to move the fuck away from hibernation." -- this is about being angrily tired of your boring monotonous hometown. do not try to fight with me over this.

wylan van eck -- new perspective (& a troubled mind off of cape elizabeth) -- "you and all of your new perspective, now // wish i could shut it in a closet and drag you back down." -- i feel like this song is wylan in the first book, i cannot explain.

nina zenik -- all my love -- "i'm still out here with the pills and the dogs if you need me, dear. i'm the same as i was, it's all okay." -- it's the perfect mix of her before they broke matthias out of hellgate and post-ck. love.

matthias helvar -- stick season -- "i'll dream each night of some version of you that i might not have, but i did not lose." -- i'm sorry. the song really is matthias, but i couldn't resist putting that lyric as the fucking tag thing, especially because the song is mostly able to be related to hellgate/early soc matthias.

jordie rietveld -- halloween -- "collect every dream in these old empty pockets and hope that i'll need them some day." -- i couldn't be more sorry, but i could write an entire analysis on this choice.

kanej -- orange juice -- "are we all just crows to you now? are we all just pulling you down?" -- if the writer himself looked me in the eyeballs and said he wrote this song about kanej, i would believe him wholeheartedly.

wesper -- she calls me back -- "does it bite at your edges? do you lie awake restless? why am i so obsessive, hanging on to every sentence?" -- this screams pre-relationship wesper while they were pretending not to have raging crushes on each other.

helnik -- still -- "it's like i'm still here with you." -- again, couldn't be more sorry. it's funny that they call this man folk malone, which makes me laugh so hard, but his music is actually fucking depressing.

#his music makes me so sad when i think about the words #but it's so pretty and i will continue to sing it like they're pretty love songs while i'm in my car by myself <3 #six of crows #stick season #noah kahan #back on my musical bullshit #crows lists

she calls me back by Noah Kahan is such an ineffable spouses song to me:

Oh There was Heaven in your eyes I was not baptized Everything's alright when She calls me back, she calls me back Lost for a long time Two parallel lines Everything's alright when She calls me back, she calls me back

The radio is taunting me Every song a minor key And I don't get much sleep most nights I'm seeing you in every dream If only I could wake you up If only I could fall asleep I'll love you when the ocean's dry I'll love you when the rivers freeze

Look at me and don't you lie I could be your sacrifice But don't you hold your head up high For bullshit, I do not have time I can be an old tattoo To remind me when I get bad news And I do not exist to die But live to die while saving you

Does it bite at your edges? Do you lie awake restless? Why am I so obsessive? Hanging onto every sentence This town's the same as you left it Your page is blank but I read it I still dial 822-993-167

#I will get this fandom hyperfixated on noah kahans music if its the last thing I do lolol #also Save me Hallelujah and Passenger #Busyhead Please and Animal all fit crowley so well It hurts #help #shippy stuff #ineffable wives #rambling

She Calls Me Back through the Lens of Merthur

There was Heaven in your eyes. I was not baptized

It’s believed by some Christians that in order to get to Heaven, you need to be baptized. So this line means that while Merlin sees something that he desires in Arthur’s eyes it is something he can not have. Arthur is not his to hold.

Everything's alright when She calls me back, she calls me back

This line is after Arthur dies. Merlin believes everything will be ok once Arthur is back.

Lost for a long time. Two parallel lines

With his death Arthur becomes lost to Merlin for centuries. They are two sides of the same coin they are always together but in a way never truly touch similar to how parallel lines never intersect.

Look at me and don't you lie I could be your sacrifice

Ok this makes me think of the episode where Merlin is the bait for an ambush. This could be a piece of dialogue because I could imagine Merlin proposing the idea, but Arthur wouldn’t like it. Merlin has always been willing to sacrifice things for Arthur what more is getting put in a little danger when he puts himself in danger all the time for Arthur.

But don't you hold your head up high For bullshit, I do not have time

Merlin get annoyed because Arthur gets himself into unnecessary trouble that he has to fix whether that’s by being arrogant, which Merlin hates or by being too stuck to his morals and choices, which well Merlin loves he doesn’t have time for it when it puts Arthur at risk,

I can be an old tattoo. To remind me when I get bad news

Merlin chooses to be stuck as an old man after Arthur dies to remind himself not to get attached or start relationships because it only ends badly

And I do not exist to die But live to die while saving you

Merlin doesn’t desire to die or need to die for the prophecy. But he lives for Arthur which means he’d die for him. He risks his life all the time by fighting adversaries and simply by being magic in Camelot.

Does it bite at your edges? Do you lie awake restless? Why am I so obsessive? Hanging onto every sentence.

Merlin wonders sometimes if Arthur feels the weight of the prophecy the way he does.

This town's the same as you left it Your page was blank but I read it. I still dial 822-993-167. The radio is taunting me Every song a minor key

Merlin still hurts like he did when he lost Arthur. He still wanders back to the Lake of Avalon where he buried his friends. It seems that even in this modern world he’s reminded of his pain even in something like music.

And I don't get much sleep most nights. I’m seeing you in every dream

Merlin dreams of Arthur every night. He thinks too much of Camelot of what he could have done better so things didn’t end so horribly. He has nightmares of Arthur’s death.

If only I could wake you up. If only I could fall asleep

Merlin just wants Arthur to come back or at least for him to be able to pass on to see Arthur and all his loved ones in the afterlife.

I'll love you when the ocean's dry I'll love you when the rivers freeze

Merlin will love Arthur forever. Even centuries in the future he still waits for Arthur.

All the pain I should have saved. Oh, I was too afraid of living life in your footsteps. In your heart or in your head. Oh, I was too afraid of living life in your footsteps.

With the ability to look back on things Merlin realizes all the pain he could have avoided if he hadn’t been so worried about prophecies. If he hadn’t been so concerned about stopping the bad futures he saw he could have avoided them entirely. But by trying to avoid it he followed the footsteps destiny assigned him

Lyric Starters from Stick Season by Noah Kahan

Northern Attitude

How you been?

Settled down?

You feelin' right?

Feelin' proud?

How are your kids?

Where are they now?

Where are you?

What does it mean?

If I get too close and I'm not how you hoped, forgive my northern attitude

Oh, I was raised out in the cold

Oh, I was raised on little light

[I/You] bought some shit

[I’m/You’re] gettin' lost

[I’m/You’re] gettin' high

[I’m/You’re] all alone, late in life

[I’m/You’re] scared to live

[I’m/You’re] scared to die

You settle down

[I’m/You’re] gettin' stoned, then kickin' rocks

Stick Season

You promised me that I was more than all the miles combined

You must've had yourself a change of heart like halfway through the drive

Kept on drivin' straight and left our future to the right

Now I am stuck between my anger and the blame that I can't face

Memories are somethin' even smoking weed does not replace

I am terrified of weather 'cause I see you when it rains

It's the season of the sticks

She forgot that I existed

It's half my fault

I just like to play the victim

I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas

I'll dream each night of some version of you that I might not have, but I did not lose

That'll have to do

I thought that if I piled something good on all my bad, that I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from Dad

I am no longer funny 'cause I miss the way you laugh

You once called me "forever," now you still can't call me back

My other half was you

I hope this pain's just passin' through, but I doubt it

All My Love

‘How have things been?’ Well, love, now that you mention it

My folks still talk but they speak in these two-word sentences

[I’m/You’re] sayin' too much

[I/You] know how it gets out here

No winter coat could keep out all the cold of your atmosphere

Now I know your name but not who you are

There ain't a drop of bad blood

You got all my love while I'm still out here

Writе me a list of how it is, of how it was, of how it has to be

You burrowed in under my skin

What I'd give to have you out of me

I still recall how the leather in your car feels

At the end of it all I just hope that your scars heal

I looked so confident, babe, I swear, I was scared to death

I smiled stupid the whole way home

You said, "I'll never you let go"

She Calls Me Back

There was Heaven in your eyes

Everything's alright when she calls me back

Look at me and don't you lie

I could be your sacrifice

Don't you hold your head up high

For bullshit, I do not have time

I do not exist to die, but live to die while saving you

Does it bite at your edges?

Do you lie awake restless?

Why am I so obsessive?

This town’s the same as you left it

Your page was blank, but I read it

The radio is taunting me

I don't get much sleep most nights

I'm seeing you in every dream

If only I could wake you up

If only I could fall asleep

I'll love you when the ocean's dry

I'll love you when the rivers freeze

I was too afraid of living life in your footsteps

Still she calls me back

Come Over

I'm in the business of losin' your interest

I turn a profit each time that we speak

My house was designed to kinda look like its cryin', the eyes are the windows, the garage is the mouth

You won't have to guess who thеy speakin' about

Come over, come over

I'm in the process of clearin' out cobwebs

Feels good to be sad

My mouth was designed for my foot to fit in it

I promise you, darlin', with the view in the morning, you won't ever go back

I know that it ain't much

I know that it ain't cool

You don't have to tell the other kids at school

My dad'll strike it rich

We'll be the big house on the block

Someday I'm gonna be somebody people want

New Perspective

Silence is making me nostalgic

We were kids, but that don't make this less hard

If I could fly I doubt I'd even do it

I'd probably get high and crash or something stupid

You made this place feel just like Central Park

Paper bags drift wherever the wind blows and mine's full of receipts

This town’s for the record now

The intersection got a Target and they're calling it downtown

You and all of your new perspective, wish I could shut it in a closet and drag you back down

Gave me your word and now I can't pronounce it

No thing so sure that I can't learn to doubt it

Now the state bird, it sings our song so out of key

Everything, Everywhere

It's been a long year

Would we survive in a horror movie?

We trust everyone we meet

I wanna love you 'til we're food for the worms to eat

I wanna love you 'til our fingers decompose

Drive slowly

I know every route in this county

Maybe that ain't such a bad thing

Orange Juice

Honey, come over

The party's gone slower

No one will tempt you

We know you got sober

There's orange juice in the kitchen

It's yours if you want it

We're just glad you could visit

I've been ready for you to come home for so long

I didn't think to ask you where you'd gone

Why'd you go?

You said my heart has changed

My soul has changed

Now my face has changed

See the graves as you pass through

Not one nick on your finger

You just asked mе to hold you

It made you a stranger and filled you with angеr

Now I'm third in the line up to your Lord and your Savior

My life had changed, this town had changed and you had not

Don't you find it strange that you just went ahead and carried on?

The last time I drank I was face down, passed out there in your lawn

Are we all just crows to you now?

Are we all just pullin' you down?

You didn't put those bones in the ground

Strawberry Wine

Darling, speak to me but don't you say a word

Light a cigarette, I'll watch it as it burns

Remember telling me that you thought you were cursed?

I'm in love with every song you've ever heard

If I could lose you, I would

We buried your bones in plywood

Love is fast asleep on a dirt road with your head on my shoulder

Those things I miss but know are never coming back for you, darling

No thing definеs a man like love that makes him soft

If I was empty space and you were a formless shape, we'd fit

Love leaves little runway and every time we run straight over it

Growing Sideways

I took my medication and I poured my trauma out on some sad-eyed middle aged man's overpriced new leather couch

I said "I'm cured"

I divvied up my anger into thirty separate parts

Keep the bad shit in my liver, and the rest around my heart

I'm still angry at my parents, for what their parents did to them

It's a start

I ignore things, and I move sideways 'til I forget what I felt in the first place

At the end of the day I know there are worse ways to stay alive

Everyone's growing and everyone's healthy

I'm terrified that I might never have met me

If my engine works perfect on empty I guess I'll drive

So I forgot my medication

Now I'm suffering in style

Why is pain so damn impatient?

And if all my life was wasted I don't mind, I'll watch it go

It's better to die numb than feel it all

Halloween

I'm sailin' away to a place I'm afraid of

The dawn isn't here, the sun hasn't rose

I'm drinkin' my days with the coastal longshoreman

They got money to make and children back home

The last that I heard, you were down in New Orleans

I drink 'til I drown and I smoke 'til I'm burnin'

Your hands are all over my scent

I worry for you

You worry for me

It's fine if we know we won't change

Collect every dream in these old empty pockets in hope that I'll need them some day

The wreckage of you, I no longer reside in

The bridges have long since been burnt

I'm leavin' this town and I'm changin' my address

I know that you'll come if you want

It's not Halloween, but the ghost you're dressed up as sure knows how to haunt

I know that you fear that I'm wicked and weary

I know that you fearin' the end

I only tell the truth when I'm sure that I'm lyin'

I'm settin' sail once again

Homesick

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

Every photograph that's taken here is from the summer

This place is such great motivation for anyone tryna move the fuck away

Well, I'm tired of dirt roads named after high school friends' grandfathers

Timе moves so damn slow I swear I feel my organs failing

I stopped caring 'bout a month ago sincе then it's been smooth sailing

I would leave if only I could find a reason

I got dreams, but I can't make myself believe them

Spend the rest of my life with what could have been

I will die in the house that I grew up in

I'm homesick

Still

I don't want to say goodbye

It only falls into place when you're falling to pieces

You find love that lasts a while 'til you lose the reasons

You miss something that you can't place but you can't deny it

Don't know whether you want a place in the coast or the country

You can't stay here

It's hard to face and it feels too ugly

You light a fire inside yourself, let it burn

It's like I'm still here with you

And I used to watch my mother move like God was in the room

Grab a past box of photos, I rip myself open

I'm wondering if I'm callous but hoping, can I fix what is broken?

The View Between Villages

I'm splitting the road down the middle

For a minute the world seemed so simple

Feel the rush of my blood

I'm seventeen again

I am not scared of death

I've got dreams again

It's just me and the curve of the valley

There is meaning on Earth

I am happy

A minute from home, but I feel so far from it

It's all washin' over me, I'm angry again

The things that I lost here, the people I knew

They got me surrounded for a mile or two

The cars in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel

I'm back between villages and everything's still
