In The Middle - Late Night Alumni
Here you are there they are
And I'm like the man in the middle
If I'm the peacekeeper you'll find me between the lines
I see you one by one each come undone
When there's a rumble to be won
It's a riddle and I'm the man in the middle
You have it on good faith
You know you gave it a fair shake
And you could burn your bridge
Or patch it up when it breaks
Yeah I'm a quick closed book
I know you all wanna read it but I've sealed it up
It's a good one but you're not shaking it open
Am I your tug of war or the thin line that I walk on
If you can't see me I'm the one sleeping in the light
It's with me all day long
All night I'm mulling it over
How you somehow walk with a hatchet
If you toss it I'll catch it
You're like an axe swinging your facts
How can I say who's gone astray
The fence is made
So far I've stayed here with one hand on every side
'Cause I'm the man in the middle
