The Middle
Cian Sheehan Lyrics

I’ve been stuck in the middle
I'm feeling stuck and unsure in this relationship

Your face is like a riddle
I can't read your emotions or figure out what you want

Can’t figure out what you want
I'm struggling to understand your motives and desires

Maybe that’s why you are gone
Your ambiguous behavior may have contributed to the end of our relationship

I can’t take this any longer
I've reached my breaking point and can't continue with this uncertainty

You’re the one I need when I’m feeling real somber
You were the person I turned to when I was feeling sad or down

I could even buy you whatever you need
I was willing to provide for you and meet your material needs

Wether it’s clothes or a thousand dollar jewelry
I was willing to spend money on you to make you happy

But he’s the focus of your life
You prioritize someone else over me

I’m not even in frame when it comes to mine
I'm not important or significant in your life

It seems you don’t really care anymore
I feel like you've stopped caring about me or our relationship

So I guess I’ll go ahead and turn off the light
I'm ready to move on and let go of this relationship

Why do I keep on singing about you
I can't stop thinking about you and expressing my emotions through music

When I know I’m just a kid who has stupid shit to go through
I feel like my problems and experiences are invalid and unimportant compared to yours

And even when we make plans you always break them
You don't keep the promises or plans we make together

Like a kid with some Legos who’s parents don’t know how to raise him
You act irresponsibly and immaturely, like a child whose parents don't know how to discipline them

But I gotta stop listening
I need to stop engaging with you and focusing on you

I don’t know I’m in a bliss until I’m stuck in an abyss
I realize that I was happy or content with you, but now I'm experiencing emotional turmoil

I thought you were the one but you fed me fake shit
I believed that you were my soulmate or ideal partner, but you misled me

I used to love you but now I’m over all of this
I used to have strong feelings for you, but now I'm done with this relationship

6 months passed and I’ve gone through a lot
It's been 6 months since we broke up and I've experienced significant growth and change

But through 4 you’re still stuck in my head as a thought
I still think about you and our relationship, even though it's been a while since we were together

I think I messed up damn
I regret some of my actions or decisions in our relationship

I think I should’ve confessed
I wish I had been more honest and forthcoming about my feelings

Even though we barely talked those minutes were the best
Even though we didn't spend much time together, the moments we did share were special to me

And I
I

Don’t know where to go
I feel directionless and uncertain about my future without you

I need to just say
I need to express my feelings and thoughts to you

Your still in my head since that first damn day
I haven't been able to stop thinking about you since the first day we met

Since that first damn day and
Since that first day

I’m getting frantic
I feel anxious and worried about our relationship and my feelings

Please put your hand out
I'm asking for your help and support

My love ain’t a hand out
I'm not trying to bribe or manipulate you with my love

But I’d give it to you now
I would willingly give you my love and affection
