Lyrics
She got a job at a diner in the South Slope
It's a nice place in its own way
She had to move back to Queens
with her mom though
She takes the F train
It's a long way
Charlie's walking out
She knows that he'd be proud
She wakes up early in the morning for the F train
She's making her way
She's making her pay in the South Slope
It's a nice place
He left a hole the size of the world
And she ain't never had nothing
Wasn't asking for gold
Just a place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
Carve out a space
Just enough to breathe
For the long nights of uncertainty
Place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
Summer is so hot
Winter is so cold
On the F train to the South Slope
And most are people okay in their own way
It's a nice place
But it's a long way
He left a hole the size of the world
And she ain't never had nothing
Wasn't asking for gold
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Carve out a space
Just enough to breathe
For the long nights of uncertainty
Place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own
She says, 'yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
Where do I belong'
Yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
She says, 'yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
Where do I belong'
Yeah you leave
Yeah you go
Where do I belong
Where do I belong
He left a hole the size of the world
And she ain't never had nothing
Wasn't asking for gold
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Just a place of her own
Carve out a space just enough to breathe
For the long nights of uncertainty
Place of her own
Place of her own
Place of her own

Red, White and Bruised: The Midnight Live is the first live album by The Midnight. It was initially released on April 22, 2023, exclusively to independent record stores as part of Record Store Day 2023[1] before getting a widespread release on September 1, 2023.[2]
Background
On February 13, 2023, a short soundbite of Tyler Lyle from a live show was shared to the band's socials, with a cryptic date of February 16 given.[3] On that day, Red, White, and Bruised: The Midnight Live was officially announced with a small trailer and was slated for release on April 22, exclusively on vinyl through independent record stores as part of Record Store Day 2023.[4] The songs on the album were recorded throughout various shows during The Midnight's 2022 tours in North America and Europe.
1300 copies of Red, White, and Bruised: The Midnight Live were pressed across three different colors - red, white, and blue - with the color not being known until opening the record.[5][6] The album was promoted with a live acoustic performance by Lyle at Criminal Records in Atlanta, GA on the day of release.[7][8] It was hinted that the album would be made available again at some point in the future.[8][9]
On August 15, 2023, it was revealed that Red, White, and Bruised: The Midnight Live would have a full release on all platforms on September 1.[2] Heroes was released as a single from the album on the same day and was accompanied by a corresponding live music video. In addition to vinyl, the album was also available in cassette form for the first time. The digital and cassette versions contain eight new tracks in addition to the eight included on the original vinyl release.
