Midland

It's cold here in midland
I'd rather be back east
But this is where I make my living
This is where I earn my keep

I could make a decent living
Pack up and go back home
But this life I'm so caught up in
Might as well be set in stone

And It's hard work and lonely nights
Hit or miss wrong or right

I'm just living the dream
As messed up as it seems
Yeah it's wild as hell
Stories I can't tell
But I, don't know anything else

It is what it is
It ain't what it ain't
I'm making per diem Pay
That's 120 a day
For time lost that I can't redeem.

I'm just living the dream

Well he tried to warn me
But I ain't scared
Cuz this blood that's running through us
Is something that we share

And she don't like it
But she don't complain
I just tell her the same thing
I say it every day

Yeah tomorrow i'm dragging up
And that's my line
I lie to myself
All the time

And I'm just living the dream
As messed up as it seems
Yeah it's wild as hell
Stories I cant tell
But I, don't know anything else

It is what it is
It ain't what it ain't
I'm making per diem Pay
That's 120 a day
For time lost that I cant' redeem

I'm just living the dream

They tell me in the end it will all pay off
But why does it feel like a total loss

Living the dream
As messed up as it seems
Yeah it's wild as hell
Stories I can't tell
But I, Don't know any thing else

It is what it is
It ain't what it ain't
I'm making per diem Pay
That's 120 a day
For time lost that I cant' redeem.

I'm just livin' the dream
