Dust on Your Doorstep 2 (Version 2)

Verse 1 – male vocal

Saw your light flicker on the second floor at two

You were dusting off the windows where we used to climb

Said you weren't done with what we started here

Guess that was a lie

Chorus — shouted gang-vocal group hooks, raw unpolished tone

Dust on your doorstep like a map of the road

Every streetlight's calling out a name I know

We don't run from shadows in the same old place

Dust on your doorstep, and I see your face

Verse 2 – male vocal

Your mom said you were leaving for a better view

But your suitcase stayed packed in the hallway too

I waited 'til dawn but you still didn't leave

Now the whole town's talking, saying I should be glad to breathe

Chorus — shouted gang-vocal group hooks, raw unpolished tone

Dust on your doorstep like a map of the road

Every streetlight's calling out a name I know

We don't run from shadows in the same old place

Dust on your doorstep, and I see your face

Bridge — male vocal

What we had didn't die, it just got rearranged

You said you'd be back, but that was a long time ago

Now your house is clean, but there's still dust where we used to go

And every night this light turns on and I don't know what to do with this

Chorus — shouted gang-vocal group hooks, raw unpolished tone

Dust on your doorstep like a map of the road

Every streetlight's calling out a name I know

We don't run from shadows in the same old place

Dust on your doorstep, and I see your face

Outro — male vocal

Dust on your doorstep, dust on your door

I'll be standing here till you come back home
