Elliott Smith Memory Lane Lyrics
            This is the place you end up when you lose the chase
            Where you're dragged against your will
            From a basement on the hill
            And all anybody knows is you're not like them
            And they kick you in the head and send you back to bed
        
            Isolation pulled you past a tunnel
            To a bright world where you can make a place to stay
            But everybody's scared of this place,
            They're staying away
            Your little house on Memory Lane
        
            The mayor's name is fear
            His force patrols the pier
            From a mountain of cliche
            That advances every day
            The doctor spoke a cloud
            He rained out loud
            You'll keep your doors and windows shut
            And swear you'll never show a soul again
        
            But isolation pushes you 'til every muscle aches
            Down the only road it ever takes
            But everybody's scared of this place,
            They're staying away
            Your little house on Memory Lane
        
            If it's your decision to be open about yourself
            Be careful or else
            Be careful or else
            I'm comfortable apart
            It's all written on my chart
            And I take what's given me
            Most cooperatively
            I do what people say and lie in bed all day
            Absolutely horrified
            I hope you're satisfied
        
            Isolation pushes past self-hatred, guilt, and shame
            To a place where suffering is just a game
            But everybody's scared of this place,
            They're staying away
            Your little house on Memory Lane
            Your little house on Memory Lane
