My old t shirts overflow the drawer
At least two thirds I don’t wear anymore
Multiplying from town to town
They’re tumbling down across the floor
I gather rocks from mountains that I climb
I’ve been told that’s technically a crime
And I've forgotten which is from which hike
But I'm stacking them up like some odd shrine
I don’t know why I keep them around
They're taking up space, gathering dust, upside down
I’m building my personal lost and found
There’s stacks of guidebooks standing in a row
China, Turkey, France, and Tokyo
But even if I went back some time
They went out of date long ago
There's a memory I’d like to throw away
Replace it with the first duet we played
Walking along from E to A
And I don’t know why I keep them around
They're taking up space, gathering dust, upside down
I’m building my personal lost and found
No I don't know why I keep them around
They're taking up space, gathering dust, upside down
I'm building my personal lost and found
