Well I asked your friends what you're doing now
They said you're selling firewood on the side of the road
They said your'e almost done with school
And still living up north with you're boyfriend
And that you don't talk to you're family at all anymore
It's been a whole year but I wont call
Because now aint the time to be kicking up the dirt
Last time I checked you were a tornado of a mess
And I needed you more than anything else
You let me down more than anyone I know
But I never let that slow me down
Because we left it in the strangest of places
But now aint the time to be kicking up the dirt
Well there was that one night at your friends house
Where I saw you two on the couch
And I hid that I felt crushed
And I said that I was tired
And I walked home in the cold alone
And there was that other night on that other couch
Underneath that blanket I felt like an asshole and I still do now
Well it's be eight years of terrible timing and backing out
But now aint the time to be kicking up the dirt
Yeah maybe it will unfold
Later down the road
But now aint the time to be kicking up the dirt
