Midwest Ghost Town Lyrics

black gold discovered in a wholesome little town
fossil fuel and cold hearts and the citizens they drown
painted as positive, painted as great
jobs and infrastructure, prostitution and rape

midwest boom town
future ghost town
midwest boom town
greed's here to stay
the american

the windiest place on earth
plagued by towers to drill
getting fracked beyond its worth
while our mother signs her will
a child from the campground
passed by me today
the policeman tried to save her
but her mother's gone away

midwest boom town
future ghost town
midwest boom town
greed's here to stay
the american way
