The Midwest Quiet afterlife

Select language to translate this lyric

I stayed in tonite watching fist fights
and counting spider bites
I saw bodies slide under orange lights
and heavy boom mics
Some thought I might've tried for a better life
a house with catalog rooms
Family pictures, lighting fixtures
What would that mean?
I went out tonight for some small crimes
and for a primal soothe
So I drove far outside running red lights
and cursing street signs
I saw dollar signs in a young girl's eyes
amid the neon tombs
When she closes her eyes
What does she see?
I've been thinking of the afternoon you screamed
I've been thinking that our afterlife looks mean
I stayed up tonite shooting moonshine
and hearing battle cries
It's getting dark outside, looks like the street lights
will be coming on soon
Will there ever come a time
when I see you back in this room
But the more I close my eyes
the more I see
Now you own me...
