[00:00:00] A Midwestern State Of Emergency - Silverstein

[00:00:16] I am a dead man

[00:00:18] I'm crawling into a trap

[00:00:20] A horizontal response

[00:00:22] I'm laying down for you once again

[00:00:25] You've taken what's granted

[00:00:28] I've said goodbye to my friends

[00:00:30] I throw myself headfirst into this

[00:00:33] Close the curtain and strand me

[00:00:36] Found myself lost again

[00:00:39] With even more excuses

[00:00:41] And even less concern

[00:00:44] Bound and gagged but I enjoy it

[00:00:47] You seduce your prisoner

[00:00:49] Before you take your turn

[00:00:54] So lay me down in the field

[00:00:56] And put me under the trees

[00:00:58] In the tall grass

[00:01:00] Where they won't find me

[00:01:02] Enjoying silence and peace

[00:01:04] Until the sirens

[00:01:05] They come back screaming

[00:01:07] Taking me away

[00:01:10] I've given all I can give

[00:01:12] So don't let me go back between woodward and cass

[00:01:18] Cracked concrete and broken glass

[00:01:21] This run down block with my name in lights

[00:01:26] Your saving grace my final rites

[00:01:30] Eleven miles from where I was

[00:01:33] When I conceded my head

[00:01:35] Embraced my lost control

[00:01:38] Innocence in a state so pure

[00:01:41] You hear the demons calling

[00:01:43] To take back what you stole

[00:01:48] So lay me down in the field

[00:01:50] And put me under the trees

[00:01:52] And the tall grass

[00:01:54] Where they won't find me

[00:01:56] Enjoying silence and peace

[00:01:58] Until the sirens

[00:01:59] They come back screaming

[00:02:02] Taking me away

[00:02:04] I lost a piece of myself

[00:02:06] And I forget to slow down

[00:02:08] And just breathe and it's scaring me

[00:02:12] I've given all I can give

[00:02:14] So don't let me go

[00:02:16] I am a dead man I am a dead man

[00:02:20] And it's the only way it can end

[00:02:32] Light

[00:02:40] Don't know who's side I'm on

[00:02:45] Anymore

[00:02:48] And there's

[00:02:48] No starting

[00:02:51] Over

[00:02:53] So lay me down in the field

[00:02:55] And put me under the trees and the tall grass

[00:02:59] Where they will find me

[00:03:01] Enjoying silence and peace until the sirens

[00:03:04] They come back screaming taking me away

[00:03:09] I lost a piece of myself and I forget to slow down

[00:03:13] And just breathe and it's scaring me

[00:03:17] I've given all I can give so let me go
