The Middle
The Labra Brothers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’ve been wrong since I first came or he
I always let the one-time line get ahold on me
When it’s the right time, place to fall
I’ve always had an un-kept mind and my back to the wall

But you’ve given up all your secrets
So no more caught in the middle
But right now it’s killing me not to tell you
That I’ve a real fine day upcoming

Everyday seems victim to your plan
But I’m finding more each day that I really don’t give a damn
No no because you are not the queen or beyonce
You’re just another selfish soul and you don’t know any other way

And if you wouldn’t have given up all your secrets
I might still be caught in the middle
But right now it’s killing me not to tell you
That I’ve a real fine day upcoming
A real fine day coming

(Instrumental)

I’ve been wrong since I first came to be
I always let the one-time line get ahold on me
You’ve given up all your secrets
So no more caught in the middle
Right now it’s killing me not to tell you
I’ve a real fine day upcoming, a real fine day coming





I’ve got a real fine day upcoming

Line by Line Meaning

I’ve been wrong since I first came or he
I have made mistakes since the beginning of my existence


I always let the one-time line get ahold on me
I always allow myself to be influenced by temporary situations


When it’s the right time, place to fall
When the timing and circumstances are ideal to take a risk


I’ve always had an un-kept mind and my back to the wall
I have constantly found myself in difficult situations due to my unresolved thoughts and feelings


But you’ve given up all your secrets
You have revealed all your hidden truths


So no more caught in the middle
I am no longer stuck in a confusing or compromising position


But right now it’s killing me not to tell you
Currently, I am struggling to keep a secret from you


That I’ve a real fine day upcoming
I have a wonderful day ahead


Everyday seems victim to your plan
Each day falls prey to your schemes


But I’m finding more each day that I really don’t give a damn
However, I am realizing that I do not care as much as I thought


No no because you are not the queen or beyonce
You are not as important or unattainable as royalty or a celebrity


You’re just another selfish soul and you don’t know any other way
You are simply a self-centered individual who is unaware of other perspectives


And if you wouldn’t have given up all your secrets
If you had not shared all your secrets


I might still be caught in the middle
I could still be stuck in a difficult situation


But right now it’s killing me not to tell you
Currently, it is unbearable for me to keep something from you


That I’ve a real fine day upcoming
I have a fantastic day ahead


A real fine day coming
An amazing day is on the horizon

Right now it’s killing me not to tell you
Currently, I am struggling to keep a secret from you
