"heartbreak feels good in a place like this."

"Somehow, heartbreak feels good

in a place like this."

Except, I don't think it

Applies to the theater

It applies to the small town life.

Somehow, the park we used to

Be in love in

Feels good in a home like this

Because it's in between C's old house

And my apartment

Somehow, driving past the church

I attended Leon's funeral in

Feels good in a place like this

Because it's on the way

To my church.

When you live in a small town,

Somehow you balance

The pinpoints of heartbreak

And heartfelt, well-lived life.

Life feels good in a town like this,

Even heartbreak.
