Lyrics

Verse 1

Cruising past the strip mall glow

Where the Kmart used to stand

Grain silo rusting in the snow

Ghost of a farming land

Pre-Chorus

Flags on the porch don't wave like before

Used to mean something I'm not sure

Chorus

Who are we now

In this town that forgot

Who are we now

On this road that I thought

Would carry me home

But it just carries me out

Post-Chorus

Out

Out past the county line

Out

Where the streetlights die

Verse 2

Church sign says He is risen

But the pews are gathering dust

I still sing that old hymn

Just don't know who to trust

Pre-Chorus

Highway unwinds like a loose thread

Sewing me back to the bed where I fled

Chorus

Who are we now

In this town that forgot

Who are we now

On this road that I thought

Would carry me home

But it just carries me out

Bridge

Every drive-in's a field now

Every field's got a For Sale sign

I'm a stranger in the heartland

With the same blood and same last name

Chorus

Who are we now

In this town that forgot

Who are we now

On this road that I thought

Would carry me home

But it just carries me out

Outro

Out

Out past the county line

Out

Where the flags don't shine

Mm
