Midwest Modesty

Before Their Eyes

If for the rest of your life

You decide to never think about me

Don't expect me to care

Drawing pictures on the walls all crazy

Picked you up off the ground when you were down

Don't you forget it"¦

I think you keep forgetting

So it's over

I said it's done

I said there will not ever be another one

Now let's be honest

I don't deserve this

So I'm focused in the Midwest

Getting back to where we built this

I've replaced everyone that I hate

With everything I love

No, I won't blink twice at the mention of your name

No, I'm not calling you out

This is me showing I'm not messing around

I'll wave as you sink lower and lower and lower

Is this still everything you want

Then watch me go and get it

This is something you won't see

But you've given me a reason to leave you behind

They're afraid to speak to your face

But they love to yell at your back

No, I'm not calling you out

This is me showing I'm not messing around

I think you keep forgetting
