"Is This Midwest Emo?" (Live)

In a midwest town

Cut by a north-south street

We climb up a rooftop

Where we know we shouldn't be

You hand me a bottle of whiskey

I take it down i've barely known you six weeks

We count the stars against the light pollution

And that's when you tell me

"my mother's on her way to

A place that i can't name

Or don't even know exists

The cancer's spread too far

She's in a bed upstate

I don't know how to feel about all of this"

Now we're screaming songs in a karaoke bar

And there's something about how

You're the best in all of us

Now we're screaming songs in a karaoke bar

And there's something about how

You're the best in all of us

You're the best in all of us

Loved in a way that i can't name

Nowadays i call you "brother"

Because it feels wrong to call you "friend"

And i can't count the nights where we lost sight of the hours

Screaming our favorite songs so god damn loud in a karaoke bar

Always stumbling home arm in arm

Always stumbling home arm in arm

In a midwest town cut by a north-south street

Stumbling home

Stumbling home arm in arm

Arm in arm
