The Corner Still Breathes continues the Amherst story begun in Atkins Corner Hold, Amherst Wetlands Plea, and Amherst Election Anthem. After Archipelago Investments withdrew its plan for a 262-bedroom complex near Atkins Market, the town felt a quiet sigh of relief. This song reflects that moment — when the fields remain open, the wetlands endure, and Amherst remembers that real growth begins with listening. 



Verse 1
South of town where the brook winds slow,
Past Atkins Market's amber glow,
Three new towers once were drawn in line,
But the roots ran deep through oak and pine.

Verse 2
Neighbors gathered through the year,
Said the water's voice is clear,
Let the fields keep singing low,
Let the wetlands overflow.

Chorus
The corner still breathes, the maples still stand,
The plans rolled back by the will of the land.
No glass, no glare where the meadow bends,
Just soil and song, and the hope it sends.

Verse 3
On Monday came the letter brief,
Withdrawn design, a quiet relief.
The ink ran dry, the pages turned,
Another lesson Amherst learned.

Bridge
Build with care or not at all,
Hear the earth before you call.
Dreams can rise from humbler ground,
Where balance, not ambition, is found.

Final Chorus
The corner still breathes, the sky remains wide,
The wetlands whisper on the tide.
Amherst holds what Amherst knows,
That living land is what still grows.

Outro
Let this stand as promise made,
To guard the green, the quiet shade.
No need for towers to prove we've grown,
The heart of a town is the place it's sown.


The Corner Still Breathes

Leaving home is hard, even if you don’t have many fond memories growing up in it.

Leaving Home

I’m leaving home,
I’m free to roam
Into a wilderness today
And eternity tomorrow.

My past is gone
And all debts paid.
The man I was before
Is going fast to fade.

I cut the cord
And moved away;
Another night
Is another day.

My past is gone,
I’m leaving home.
I’m leaving home,
I’m moving on.

All restrictions gone,
There are no rules;
I’m not the same,
I’m a brand new fool.

The meter’s running,
I won’t pay a dime.
Will keep it running
Away from time.

I’ll fill a hole in the ocean,
I’ll grab a pie in the sky;
The water’s calm and mighty,
Sky is seven thousand feet high.

I cut the cord
And moved away;
Another night
Is another day.

My past is gone,
I’m leaving home.
I’m leaving home,
I’m moving on.
