Lyrics The Milk Carton Kids

The Milk Carton Kids

Mourning in America

Fell asleep with the TV on

Finally feelin' like I belong

Woke up to a funeral song

Called you up to say "hello"

Left a message for you at home

Packed my dishes in styrofoam

Everything I knew is gone

It's raining in Ohio

The streets are slick, shows what I know

I hear their cries through my window

They're mourning again in America

Mourning again in America

Tied my shoes when I woke up

Drew my curtains just enough

Thought about the ones I love

Tucked my chin into my coat

Shrugged my shoulders, cleared my throat

Walked the banks of the Ohio

Felt a chill to the bone

It's raining in Ohio

The streets are slick, shows what I know

I hear their cries through my window

They're mourning again in America

Mourning again in America

Mourning again in America

Mourning again in America
