Cloudstrider - Midwest Empty Lyrics

Hey boy, time to get going
Jump the car and drive
Hit the road to anywhere but here
On the highway we're alive

Midwest climbing the sand dunes
To lay adrift and drown in Lake Michigan
On a sunny afternoon
Let the waves carry me like a tune

Cascading further in the night
Darkness everywhere, except the dashboard light
If I could find another life
And put an end to the emptiness inside

You can drive the whole night through
Can't solve the mystery
When you haven't got the slightest clue
You said it would be ok
It was the last thing that I ever heard you say
I let the tide pull me under
Let my body tumble in the undertow
Tell my blue eyed girl I loved her
It was the greatest love any man could ever know

Never know the reasons why
Unseen awkwardness telling you goodbye
One day, the sun will shine
From the darkness that's tangled in my mind

Off the coast of Wisconsin
Dredge my body the debris of my insanity
On a sunny afternoon
Let the waves carry me like a tune.
