lyrics

It’s hard to get a grip on a slippery slope
And convince yourself that you’ll stand tall
It’s hard to throw away methods you used to cope
And not think that everything will fall
It’s harder when you fall mad in love with someone
That you’ll never get a chance to see
And then your life becomes a big countdown to none
Of how many promises you keep

Seems so simple staying in
Seems so simple
Seems so simple staying in line

Oh, we talk about meeting in the middle
Yeah, we talk about meeting in the middle
Yeah, we talk about meeting in the middle
'Til we have to choose a side

I’m trying to keep tabs as it all comes unfurled
But distractions make for such good fun
I could become a man in this fatherless world
But I feel no need to be a son
So I let myself fall mad in love with someone
That I’ll never get a chance to touch
But I need to connect when I’m under attack
There, to me, promises don't mean much

Seems so simple staying in
Seems so simple
Seems so simple staying in line

Oh, we talk about meeting in the middle
Yeah, we talk about meeting in the middle
Yeah, we talk about meeting in the middle
'Til we have to choose a side

Seems so simple staying in
Seems so simple
Seems so simple staying in line

Oh, we talk about meeting in the middle
Yeah, we talk about meeting in the middle
Yeah, we talk about meeting in the middle
'Til we have to choose a side
We have to choose a side
We have to choose a side
Not everything can be a compromise
