No Love For The Middle Child Lyrics

You say
Someone advises you to do something.

Just stay
Someone is encouraging you to remain.

Cause we're only getting older
Time is passing by, we are advancing in age.

If you wait
If you delay making a decision.

It's too late
There will be consequences for your indecision.

Cause once you're gone it'll be over
Once you make a decision, you cannot take it back.

Shouldn't have said it
Regretting something that was mentioned earlier.

Shouldn't have said it
Regretting something that was mentioned earlier.

Shouldn't have let you down but I meant it
Regretting letting someone down, but it was intentional.

You say
Someone advises you to do something.

Just stay
Someone is encouraging you to remain.

Cause we're only getting older
Time is passing by, we are advancing in age.

In the middle of a breakdown
During a time of intense stress or emotional turmoil.

You just wanna let your heart out
Expressing one's true feelings and emotions.

Even when we end up on the floor
Resilience and determination through tough times.

I can't shake it, oh I can't shake it now
Feeling unable to get over a particular situation or feeling.

Even when I'm in the low light
Even when one is feeling down or hopeless.

I can see right through your cold eyes
Being able to see through someone's facade or lies.

And I won't let you break it
Refusing to allow someone to cause further harm.

I won't let you keep on making me say
Refusing to allow someone to control or manipulate.

All I Know is I
The only thing one is certain of.

Won't be here when night turns to morning
Not being present for the next day or future events.

All I Hope is I
The only thing one is wishing for.

Could stop the time but it keeps on turning
Wanting to pause or stop time, but it inevitably moves forward.

Think you're better off without me
Believing that someone is better off without you in their life.

Cause I always leave you lonely
Feeling guilty for causing someone to feel alone.

And we can't keep running back with a bullet and a gun
Continuing a harmful or dangerous situation.

And we pull it when we come clean
Revealing the truth and causing harm or damage.

You say that you don't need me
Someone expresses that they don't require your presence or help.

But I kinda got the feeling
Sensing that someone actually does want your help or presence.

That part of you wants to hold on
Feeling that someone still has a desire or connection to you.

But we can't go and make the right way wrong and...
Knowing that it's not wise to proceed with something that may lead to harm or damage.

Cause we're only getting older
Time is passing by, we are advancing in age.

Cause we're only getting older
Time is passing by, we are advancing in age.
