The Dear Hunter - Middle Ground lyrics
[The Dear Hunter - Middle Ground lyrics]
A hired gun you could abandon
All these fools who tried to sermonize
If my misery is measured
Scored with a system
A cold and callous case of a calculated lie
But in place of pain or praise
Just leave me to the same mistakes
I’ve always made, and I’ll always make
I don’t want love, but I don’t need hate
Just a simple middle of the road
To keep my bearings straight
I screamed on my soapbox for
The martyr of hurt
And I slaved for years just to be heard
Above the mess of masses and droning tones
But, I concede
Reality is different than I’d hoped
Leave me to the same mistakes
I’ve always made, I’ll always make
And I don’t want love, but I don’t need hate
Just a simple middle of the road to
Keep me on the true and narrow no noise
I’m better poised to keep
My bearings straight
I don’t care if you believe me
I’m still here
But, I've completely lost myself
Inside myself again
I don’t care, if you believe me
I’m still here
But, I've completely lost myself
Inside myself again
Leave me to the same mistakes
I’ve always made, I’ll always make
And I don’t want love, but I don’t need hate
Just a simple middle of the road to
Keep me on the true and narrow no noise
I’m better poised to keep
My bearings straight
