[Verse 1]

Always wanted to move to the city

Always wanted out of my hometown

Always thought it was so shitty

Had bigger dreams, I saw bigger skies

That'll all seem so petty

When we're made extinct by AI

I won't live to regret it

But I'll probably wish I'd been at home to die

To die

To die

[Chorus]

My midland's guilt caught my midland's shame

Taught my heart respect for the place I came from

My midland's guilt is with me all the same

Pray I see the day I make it home to die

To die

To die

[Verse 2]

Always wanted to get away

And you all heard my accent changе

I regret that I wasn't proud

Should have put morе love into our landlocked town

Where some of us we didn't vote

'Cause we mostly had no hope for change

Well, I suppose, we probably thought that we would just remain

Remain

I hope that you'll let me remain

[Chorus]

My midland's guilt caught my midland's shame

Taught my heart respect for the place I came from

My midland's guilt is with me all the same

Pray I see the day I make it home to die

To die

To die
