Iowa by Hnover Lyrics

The storms make trees take deeper roots
I'll be there soon
But all of this makes me feel so confused
Cause I've been hurt before
I've been used

That's why
My walls are higher than you when you last called
But I don't think I can fault you at all
Cause remember that boy you picked up from the floor?

He never wanted all his demons
And always questioned all the reasons
Why they insist
On coming back to haunt him now

The family tree
Wasn't so kind to me
And it's beginning to bring me down
(Bring me down)
But you'll never know
How grateful I was
To know that you'd always be around
Remember that you said
It made your heart happy?
But you should know that
That's how it should be
'Cause in all honesty
You mean a lot to me

He never wanted all his demons
And always questioned all the reasons
Why they'd insist
On coming back to haunt him now

The family tree
Wasn't so kind to me
And it's beginning to bring me down
(Bring me down)
But you'll never know
How grateful I was
To know that you'd always be around

But I don't know how long I can go on this way
Staring blankly at a screen every day
If I could, I'd pack my bags
And I'd just fly away

Sometimes I wonder if we shall ever meet
Whilst I soldier on through the December sleet
My heart it lies in Iowa
I promise you, I'm sure
The family tree
Wasn't so kind to me
And it's beginning to bring me down
(Bring me down)
But you'll never know
How grateful I was
To know that you'd always be around
