about

Here is the first full-band studio single from The Midwife Crisis. It was originally released on streaming services on February 14, 2020.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Another small town tragedy
Another catastrophe that could've been me
Kinda wish I was there
But at the same time
I'm glad I missed all the drama and trauma
Celebrations of life
Under ceiling fans made outta knives
The kids around here
Are all just waiting to die

[Chorus]
But not me, I'm already dead inside
I didn't shed a single tear in the summer time
Maybe I've been gone too long

[Verse 2]
All my old friends are hooked on coke
While I was out of town getting hooked on coke
It's a vicious cycle
Everybody knows
There's no punchline to this awful joke
Late night doing lines til 6am
In a circle on the floor on a Ouija board
But this is not a seance
It's just
Another night at the makeshift psych ward
The kids around here all wish they'd never been born

[Chorus]
But not me, I'm already dead inside
I didn't shed a single tear in the summer time
Maybe I've been gone too long
Or maybe it's just a sign
Throughout the last five years
I've perpetually lost my mind

[Bridge]
I'd like to give it up for drugs
For winning the War on Drugs
But everything has a price these days

[Chorus]
But not me, I'm already dead inside
I didn't shed a single tear in the summer time
Maybe I've been gone too long
Or maybe it's just a sign
Throughout the last five years
I've perpetually lost my mind
