Lyrics:

We’re building shrines to St. Nick Foles
in the windows, in the living rooms.
I’m playing “Dancing with a Ghost”
in the soft light of the afternoon.
I’m alone in the house where your sister died.

We’re building shrines to St. Nick Foles
in the churches, in the alleyways.
I watched the river overflow
from the Schuylkill in the pouring rain.
I’m alone in the house where your sister died,
on the block that you lived your entire life.

And I take the same train I did at nineteen.
We danced on the benches in an empty Market East.

Throw me into the Delaware,
and leave me down at the bottom there–
the black lung of the East Coast,
the Paris of nowhere.

We’re planting gardens in the potholes
when no one comes to fill them in.
I’ll love you when nobody else will—
all shoulder chips and paper skin.
You’re a kid swinging off of a traffic light.
You’re a block party outside a junkyard fire.

Throw me into the Delaware,
and leave me down at the bottom there.
Desperate, kind, and cut-throat,
the Paris of nowhere.

Two feet of snow on the ground, and it’s still coming down,
so I’m gonna dig you out, I’m gonna dig you out.
It must get lonely without Colleen and Cheryl around.
(I’m gonna dig you out, I’m gonna dig you out.)
Still got the flowers we found taped to the door of our house.
(I’m gonna dig you out, I’m gonna dig you out.)
You were always looking out.
