"The Middle" lyrics

What a night did unfold
I ended the call
Stone in my hand
I could not understand
The turn of your voice
On the line
Of another man

Did I wait
Did I falter
Did I say all I needed to

Oh I
I'm cutting the tape
I'm turning the tables
Right back to you (right back to you)
Stepping into the daylight
I saw my life and I
Don't even miss you

To my left and
To my right, I
See it now
I am caught in the middle
Two worlds undo

So I gave it my all
I laid down the law
And I'll never look back
I didn't know you like that
I thought you were old
To be running your mouth like that

Was I wrong
Was I heartless, oh
How I shout when I'm feeling small, oh

I'm cutting the tape
I'm turning the tables
Right back to you
Stepping into the daylight
I saw my life and I
Don't even miss you

To my left and
To my right, I
See it now
I am caught in the middle
Two words undo

I didn't know you could hurt me
I didn't know you would turn on me
I'm rubbing my eyes
Seeing you right

All of the world before me
I'm cutting the cord
Don't lean on me
I'm setting it right
I'm saying goodbye

I'm cutting the tape
I'm turning the tables
Right back to you
Stepping into the daylight
I saw my life and I
Don't even miss you
