Midwest Kids
He was raised in the shadow of an automobile
And he knows what he knows, but not what he feels
And he knows what he saw
And he's pretty sure some of it was real
He was raised in the shadow of an automobile
She was born in the back of a Cabriolet
She won't say much about it
'cause what can you say?
When you're born on the road
Your whole life is a getaway
And she was born in the back of a Cabriolet
In the Midwest kids get high and then they get sober
In the Midwest kids feel winter even when the winter's over
And the winter's never over
And what can you do in a town without a view
Where the streetlights don't come on
Because they're all broken?
And what can you say
To a boy with such an innocent face
In a car with a tank that's full
And a door that's open?
(Instrumental)
So maybe they make it and maybe they don't
I could tell you a story but maybe I won't
Suffice it to say it's a long way from here to the coast
And maybe they make it and maybe they don't
In the Midwest kids feel old and then they get older
In the Midwest we feel winter even when the winter's over
And he knows what he knows, but not what he feels
And he knows what he saw
And he's pretty sure some of it was real
He was raised in the shadow of an automobile
She was born in the back of a Cabriolet
She won't say much about it
'cause what can you say?
When you're born on the road
Your whole life is a getaway
And she was born in the back of a Cabriolet
In the Midwest kids get high and then they get sober
In the Midwest kids feel winter even when the winter's over
And the winter's never over
And what can you do in a town without a view
Where the streetlights don't come on
Because they're all broken?
And what can you say
To a boy with such an innocent face
In a car with a tank that's full
And a door that's open?
(Instrumental)
So maybe they make it and maybe they don't
I could tell you a story but maybe I won't
Suffice it to say it's a long way from here to the coast
And maybe they make it and maybe they don't
In the Midwest kids feel old and then they get older
In the Midwest we feel winter even when the winter's over
