lyrics

boise, you are the cauldron in which i simmer
from table rock i can see the stars but my own keeps getting dimmer

this city of trees has canopied my decline
but people still think i'm doing fine

boise, you are the ashtray that's always full
we chain smoke our lives away lured by your loving lull

when i'm with you i always feel so behind
but people still think i'm doing fine

boise, you are the lover i'll never miss
the one who puts you down and cringes at a little kiss

when i'm with you i feel so behind
but people still think i'm doing fine

boise, you are the lampshade that doesn't match
the feng shui of this decor is perfect with a little catch

when i'm with you i feel so behind
but people still think i'm doing fine

and when the day is over and i'm lying in my bed
the thought of leaving you keeps running through my head
all these years keep wasting me away
born and raised, the city's praised
but i gotta find a better place to play

boise, you are the best friend i've ever had
my future's wrapped in you, and that makes me a little sad

when i'm with you i'm with you all the time
and people still think i'm doing fine

boise, you are the cauldron in which i simmer
from table rock i can see the stars but my own keeps getting dimmer

this city of trees has canopied my decline
but people still think i'm doing fine
