lyrics
The more that I learn,
The less that I know,
The closer I stay,
The further I’ll go,
The more I downplay,
The bigger it gets,
The more dollars made,
The less it makes sense,
I’m dreading the ending in real time,
I’m dreading the ending in real time.
We’re not coveting love,
We’re not coveting hate,
We’re out floating around,
Hoping the middle is safe.
We’re not coveting dark,
We’re not coveting light ,
We’re out floating around,
Hoping the middle is right.
Hoping the middle is right.
Hoping the middle.
The new real is near,
The old isn’t far,
Am I really here?
I sure hope I’m not.
I’m dreading the ending in real time,
I’m dreading the ending in real time.
We’re not coveting love,
We’re not coveting hate,
We’re out floating around,
Hoping the middle is safe.
We’re not coveting dark,
We’re not coveting light ,
We’re out floating around,
Hoping the middle is right.
Hoping the middle is right.
Hoping the middle.
(Hoping the middle is right,
Hoping the middle is right).
We’re not coveting love,
We’re not coveting hate,
We’re out floating around,
Hoping the middle is safe.
We’re not coveting dark,
We’re not coveting light ,
We’re out floating around,
Hoping the middle is right.
