Lyrics

Middle
Ground

My life is one big contradiction
I don’t know what I am missing
Why can’t I feel fine for a minute
A minute

Can’t describe how I’ve been feeling
I’m losing touch with a sense of meaning
You said you loved me but you didn’t
You didn’t

My life’s not one or another
It’s everything happening all at once

Don’t know how I long I can live with this dissonance
I miss my friends but not my hometown
I never say what I need to
Then I speak too loud
Can’t seem to find the middle ground

Miss you so much but I hate what you did
Everything I’m feeling is just so complicated
Don’t even know if I’m someone
That you’d want around
Can’t seem to find the middle ground

I’ve been living in extremes
Barely speaking then bursting out the seams
Ruminating on what everything means
And getting scared to feel seen

I guess I don’t know how
This thing called life’s supposed to go
I’ve been stumbling around
Over things I should have found

My life’s not one or another, no
It’s everything happening all at once

Don’t know how I long I can live with this dissonance
I miss my friends but not my hometown
I never say what I need to
Then I speak too loud
Can’t seem to find the middle ground

Miss you so much but I hate what you did
Everything I’m feeling is just so complicated
Don’t even know if I’m someone
That you’d want around
Someday I’ll find the middle ground

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever

Someday I’ll find the middle ground

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever

Don’t know how long I can live with this dissonance

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever

I miss my friends but not my hometown

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever

How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
How I feel I won’t feel forever
No I won’t feel forever
