Stuck
Middle Class Fashion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm doing better today than I was doing yesterday
Best could be yet to come, guess I'll just ride out these waves
I'm doing better today but my hopes are not high
I'm learning what to expect, I'm learning how to get by
Learning not to go off without changing the locks
I'm learning how to disguise what's leaking out of my mind

And it's not something I'm proud of
But I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it, in the middle of it
And I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it, in the middle of it
I'm often prone to missteps but I didn't expect this
Now I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it
I'm doing better today than I was doing yesterday
Best could be yet to come, guess I'll just ride out these waves
I'm doing better today but my hopes are not high
I'm learning what to expect, I'm learning how to get by
Learning not to go off without changing the locks
I'm learning how to disguise what's leaking out of my mind

And it's not something I'm proud of
But I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it, in the middle of it
And I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it, in the middle of it
I'm often prone to missteps but I didn't expect this
Now I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it

And I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it, in the middle of it
And I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it, in the middle of it
I'm often prone to mis-steps but I didn't expect this




Now I'm stuck smack dab in the middle of it
In the middle of it
