Noah Kahan Stick Season Lyrics

Check out Noah Kahan Stick Season Lyrics on Song Language Translator.

As you promised me that I was more than all the miles combined
You must've had yourself a change of heart like halfway through the drive
Because your voice trailed off exactly as you passed my exit sign
Kept on drivin' straight and left our future to the right
Now I am stuck between my anger and the blame that I can't face
And memories are somethin' even smoking weed does not replace
And I am terrified of weather 'cause I see you when it rains
Doc told me to travel, but there's COVID on the planes


And I love Vermont, but it's the seasons of the sticks
And I saw your mom, she forgot that I existed
And it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victim


I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas
And I'll dream each night of some version of you
That I might not have, but I did not lose
Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do

So I thought that if I piled something good on all my bad
That I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from Dad
No, I am no longer funny 'cause I miss the way you laugh
You once called me "forever," now you still can't call me back

And I love Vermont, but it's the seasons of the sticks
And I saw your mom, she forgot that I existed
And it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victim
I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas
And I'll dream each night of some version of you
That I might not have, but I did not lose
Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do

Oh, that'll have to do
My other half was you
I hope this pain's just passin' through
But I doubt it

And I love Vermont, but it's the seasons of the sticks
And I saw your mom, she forgot that I existed
And it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victim
I'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for Christmas
And I'll dream each night of some version of you
That I might not have, but I did not lose
Now you're tire tracks and one pair of shoes
And I'm split in half, but that'll have to do
Have to do

Discover The Meaning And Story Of The Song’s Lyrics

The song reflects on a painful breakup and the emotional turmoil that follows. The opening lines express a sense of betrayal, as the narrator recalls a promise made by their partner, suggesting that they were supposed to be more than just a distance apart. The imagery of driving past an exit sign symbolizes the point of no return in their relationship, where the partner chose to move on instead of reconnecting.

The narrator grapples with anger and guilt, acknowledging that they are haunted by memories that can’t be easily forgotten, even with distractions like smoking weed. The mention of the weather triggers memories of the partner, indicating that certain experiences or environments are deeply tied to their past relationship.

Vermont is presented as a place the narrator loves, yet it’s associated with a sense of isolation and the reminder of the seasons changing without their partner. The line about seeing the partner’s mother who forgot the narrator hints at how quickly life moves on, leaving them feeling invisible and forgotten.

The narrator admits to feeling partly responsible for the breakup but also recognizes a tendency to assume the victim role. They cope with their pain by drinking until friends return for the holidays, symbolizing a reliance on temporary fixes to mask deeper feelings of loss.

Throughout the song, the narrator dreams of an idealized version of their partner, expressing a longing for what was lost. The imagery of “tire tracks and one pair of shoes” suggests that the partner has left a lasting imprint on their life, while the narrator feels incomplete and divided by the experience.

The line about piling something good on all the bad reflects an attempt to find balance or healing, but the narrator acknowledges that they’ve lost their humor and light since the breakup, yearning for the laughter they once shared. The mention of pain potentially being temporary contrasts with a deep-seated doubt about whether it will truly pass.

The repetition of the chorus reinforces the themes of love, loss, and the struggle to move on. Ultimately, the song captures the complexity of navigating heartbreak, personal accountability, and the lingering presence of a lost love.
