about

We're excited to bring you our new single, "Wish I Could Do Something!" Drawing from the bright guitars and introspective lyrics of Phoebe Bridgers and American Football, this anthem of loss signifies a new direction for Midwest Telegram in both theme and technique. "WICDS" foreshadows a full-length album that pushes the band's sound and songwriting in new trajectories. Stay tuned for new music from Midwest Telegram Summer 2022.

lyrics

the clouds were gray and murky
you told us not to worry
ensuring us you were stronger
it wouldn’t be much longer

till i felt sorry
you're still choking on your breath
i couldn’t swallow the news
wasn’t the first time your heart betrayed you

mom doesn’t go to the store anymore
dad doesn’t mow the lawn
life just slows down for the moment
life just slows down now that you're gone

and i feel sorry
you're still choking on your breath
cause even if i was there
i couldn’t do what you needed me to

wish i could do something
wish i could do something
wish i could do something
wish i could do something

but all the light is fading
