Old Midwestern Home - Lyrics

Verse 1

theres no clouds in this night

the silence is deafening

to hear what we find

the rise and the fall

ive come too late

ive worn this look before

& wrestle with fate

i've seen it all

Verse 2

i was a lie

she was radiant

and there was nothing that i

could elevate to

she left my world

i find her everyday

in the moments between

construction cones


CHORUS

& the rules that keep me silent, missed 

connections, parts unknown

we blame it on the charm we seek, in the Old Midwestern Home

Verse 3

from rags to riches

blink of an eye, it seems

& reverse the heartache

that always finds me

we're heading new heights

but nose-down is in my genes

these lights are too bright

just come a little closer.


Chorus 2

(I know there's)  Magic in defiance

like The Beatles, Styx, and Stones

We blame it on the drive they see, in the old midwestern home

I keep spacing out and dreaming

from the fear of the unknown

i blame it all, the songs inside, this old midwestern home
