History
Lyrics
Middle south, middle class, middle child I ran the fields and woods I was the only girl for miles I claim my tomboy roots With a twisted pride You see I am here and I survived Brownie snapshots Argus slides The cookouts and the campouts Mother's hair piled high or dyed And there's my father His tie's too loud or wide He's got his hair slicked back The Raybans on Singing a Hank Williams song "Hey...good lookin'..." Then I see it My brother's there With his helmet on his knee Seated next to me We are always posed side by side Don't you know the camera never lies In every picture Father's focused on his face Always on his face Always on his face I am framed To the left or right Out of focus, out of sight Ooh just outside the light Ooh just outside the light He only sees one Everything revolves around the sun My brother's gone now He's on the other side Sometimes I have the guilt Of the one who didn't die My father spent his last years Crying for his son Now he's gone to join him Left me here to carry on But that's okay That's alright I claim my own family I claim my own right I'll be a candle in the darkness Burning just as bright Burning just as bright Ooh just inside the light Ooh just inside the light Everything, everything Everything's alright Ooh just inside the light Ooh just inside the light Middle south, middle class, middle child...
