[Verse 1]

I watched him leave, I never saw him again

Why can't I meet him in my dreams once more?

His name was Zach and his brother was a creep

Poked a hole inside his wall, so he could watch Zach sleep

[Chorus]

I miss the people that I don't get to see

I purposely moved across the country

Call me Harry Houdini, I'll escape it all

But Octobers in Portland I'll miss Connecticut's fall

[Verse 2]

Crystal gave it a shot, she had an infectious laugh

When Ashley heard the bad news, she called me crying a lot

I pushed these people into a corner, so I could try and live my life

I still feel their weight on my shoulders, it cuts into me like a knife

[Outro]

I miss the people that I don't get to see

Yet I purposely moved across the country

Harry Houdini was a member of the tribe

But he changed his last name and I think

I think I know why

He tried to escape himself

But he couldn't escape himself
