lyrics

It’s happening again but this time
This time is the last
I put my foot down
I swear I’ll put it down

Can’t help but want the final word
It’s so hard to be so right
Can’t you see it?
I could make you see it

Promise I’m not interested in anything I’m told
Cross my fingers, hope to die, I’ll never tell a soul

I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
Lock up all your confidence and throw away the key
All to keep your secret safe from me

Nod and smile, it’s just a game
I’ve got cards up both my sleeves
If they don’t catch me
Well it’s not if, it’s when

I gave it all my effort, well
I tried I tried I tried I tried
To mean it
Someday I’ll mean it

Promise I’m not interested in anything I’m told
Cross my fingers, hope to die, I’ll never tell a soul

I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
Lock up all your confidence and throw away the key
All to keep your secret safe from me

Try to keep track
Of the sides that I play
Nobody’d know
If I had my way
Quickest way out
Is straight through they say, oh

Lay them all out
One by one on the bed
White flags for each
Of the people I’ve met
I haven’t had
Enough of this yet, no

I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
Lock up all your confidence and throw away the key
All to keep your secret safe from me

I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again
But now it feels like home
I put myself in the middle again
I did it on my own
I put myself in the middle again, I know
