Midwest Island - So They Say

Whenever I try it feels like, the day is burning away

Peeling back my skin wanting to give in

Wanting to take this road straight back to nowhere again

Did you ever know I waited my whole life

Will you help my burn these street signs?

Waiting for a sunny Summer day

Did you ever know I held it all inside

It’s pointless acting like you could understand

I’m doing the best I can to not give in

On this midwest island is a shipwreck

Where the walls have closed us in

Feeling like I can’t wait to drive away from here

I feel like choking hands (of fear)

As they grab my neck (im scared)

But I’m not prepared to give up everything

You’re taking my breath from me

You’re asking too much from me
