Lyrics to Midland's Guilt
Always wanted to move to the city
Always wanted out of my hometown
Always thought it was so shitty
Had bigger dreams, I saw bigger skies
That'll all seem so petty
When we're made extinct by AI
I won't live to regret it
But I'll probably wish I'd been at home to die
To die
To die
My midland's guilt caught my midland's shame
Taught my heart respect for the place I came from
My midland's guilt is with me all the same
Pray I see the day I make it home to die
To die
To die
Always wanted to get away
And you all heard my accent changŠµ
I regret that I wasn't proud
Should have put morŠµ love into our landlocked town
Where some of us we didn't vote
'Cause we mostly had no hope for change
Well, I suppose, we probably thought that we would just remain
Remain
I hope that you'll let me remain
My midland's guilt caught my midland's shame
Taught my heart respect for the place I came from
My midland's guilt is with me all the same
Pray I see the day I make it home to die
To die
To die
Always wanted out of my hometown
Always thought it was so shitty
Had bigger dreams, I saw bigger skies
That'll all seem so petty
When we're made extinct by AI
I won't live to regret it
But I'll probably wish I'd been at home to die
To die
To die
My midland's guilt caught my midland's shame
Taught my heart respect for the place I came from
My midland's guilt is with me all the same
Pray I see the day I make it home to die
To die
To die
Always wanted to get away
And you all heard my accent changŠµ
I regret that I wasn't proud
Should have put morŠµ love into our landlocked town
Where some of us we didn't vote
'Cause we mostly had no hope for change
Well, I suppose, we probably thought that we would just remain
Remain
I hope that you'll let me remain
My midland's guilt caught my midland's shame
Taught my heart respect for the place I came from
My midland's guilt is with me all the same
Pray I see the day I make it home to die
To die
To die
