The Middle Lyrics
[Intro]
Fuck sake, why you gotta live so far away?
I guess you could get the train, or you could you know
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle or halfway
I'll take you out and you know that I’ll pay
Meet me in the middle on Sundays
I'll take you home but you know I can’t stay
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me
[Verse 1]
We met on Sundays and skipped the service
Preaching to the choir, I’m a liar when I’m nervous
Hasn’t been with many men, you can ask Curtis
Got a boyfriend, but she don’t stop flirting, it gets like that
Psilocybin when I'm rhyming, ain’t got time for typing
She never smoked before, but now it’s like it’s perfect timing
Forbidden love while we hit the kush, I’m over driving
You live so far away, but maybe you can
Fuck sake, why you gotta live so far away?
I guess you could get the train, or you could you know
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle or halfway
I'll take you out and you know that I’ll pay
Meet me in the middle on Sundays
I'll take you home but you know I can’t stay
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me
[Verse 1]
We met on Sundays and skipped the service
Preaching to the choir, I’m a liar when I’m nervous
Hasn’t been with many men, you can ask Curtis
Got a boyfriend, but she don’t stop flirting, it gets like that
Psilocybin when I'm rhyming, ain’t got time for typing
She never smoked before, but now it’s like it’s perfect timing
Forbidden love while we hit the kush, I’m over driving
You live so far away, but maybe you can
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle or halfway
I'll take you out and you know that I’ll pay
Meet me in the middle on Sundays
I'll take you home but you know I can’t stay
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me
[Verse 2]
Because my home still broken, hiding in the kitchen
Full of dirty dishes, I'm praying for a wish list
Time keeps ticking, respect my decision
Her dad hates me cah I’m still not Christian
We can meet halfway
But we both know, we both know I’m never changing
Scream, "Fuck you," then you try fuck me later
Go home, my jumper covered in makeup
Make all those plans, I can’t even flake
Create problems just for you to entertain
Getting comfortable, but you know
You know I can’t stay
Fuck sake
Meet me in the middle or halfway
I'll take you out and you know that I’ll pay
Meet me in the middle on Sundays
I'll take you home but you know I can’t stay
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me
[Verse 2]
Because my home still broken, hiding in the kitchen
Full of dirty dishes, I'm praying for a wish list
Time keeps ticking, respect my decision
Her dad hates me cah I’m still not Christian
We can meet halfway
But we both know, we both know I’m never changing
Scream, "Fuck you," then you try fuck me later
Go home, my jumper covered in makeup
Make all those plans, I can’t even flake
Create problems just for you to entertain
Getting comfortable, but you know
You know I can’t stay
Fuck sake
[Chorus]
Meet me in the middle or halfway
I'll take you out and you know that I’ll pay
Meet me in the middle on Sundays
I'll take you home but you know I can’t stay
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me
[Outro]
(In the middle)
(In the middle)
(In the middle)
(In the middle)
Meet me in the middle or halfway
I'll take you out and you know that I’ll pay
Meet me in the middle on Sundays
I'll take you home but you know I can’t stay
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
Meet me in the middle
You can meet me in the middle
You can meet me
[Outro]
(In the middle)
(In the middle)
(In the middle)
(In the middle)
