I keep waking up tired Before the day even starts Same weight on my shoulders Same pull on my heart Every road feels narrow Every door feels wrong I don’t need a breakdown I’ve been holding on Say yes, it costs me Say no, it hurts Either way I’m paying Guess that’s how it works I’m stuck in the middle Don’t know where to lean One side wants more than I have One won’t let me breathe Yeah I’m stuck in the middle Trying not to fall Every time I choose a side I lose it all Lose it all I keep it together in public Let it slip when I’m alone I talk like I’ve got answers But I don’t I keep thinking there’s a moment Where it finally makes sense But it just keeps pressing Like it wants me bent If I move too fast, I break If I wait, I’m gone I’m stuck in the middle Don’t know where to lean One side wants more than I have One won’t let me breathe Yeah I’m stuck in the middle Trying not to fall Every time I choose a side I lose it all Stuck in the middle Middle of it all Stuck in the middle Back against the wall Maybe there’s no right way Maybe that’s the truth Maybe all I get to choose Is what I lose I’m stuck in the middle Say it slow, say it twice Every choice feels heavy Every roll of the dice Yeah I’m stuck in the middle If this is my call I’ll stand right here and take the hit Before I crawl Stuck in the middle Middle of it all Stuck in the middle Back against the wall I’m stuck in the middle Don’t know where to lean One side wants more than I have One won’t let me breathe Yeah I’m stuck in the middle Trying not to fall Every time I choose a side I lose it all
