Middletown Lyrics

I'm on the road, I'm going somewhere
There's nothing else that I can do
We light a fire for the girl with the red hair
And we walk like we're just passing through

We count the days in Middletown
Is there a world we haven't found?
The black sky won't keep us down
Is there a world we haven't found?

We're on the roof, she's looking listless
The orange clouds are hanging low (whoa-oh, oh-oh)
She's in the mood, but will we resist?
When the time is right, I think you'll know

We count the days in Middletown
Is there a world we haven't found?
The black sky won't keep us down
Is there a world we haven't found?

And there used to be a store here
A place where we could disappear
Hard pack of Camel cigarettes
Our parents hadn't caught us yet
Your dad would work a steel job
Go to church and make a deal with God
A song would be our ticket out
Of Middletown (whoa-oh, oh-oh)
Of Middletown (whoa-oh, oh-oh)

We count the days in Middletown
Is there a world we haven't found?
The black sky won't keep us down
Is there a world we haven't found?

We count the days in Middletown
Is there a world we haven't found?
The black sky won't keep us down
Is there a world we haven't found?
Is there a world we haven't found?

We count the days in Middletown
Is there a world in Middletown we haven't found?
We count the days in Middletown
