Here you are, there they are, and I'm like the man in the middle If I'm the peacekeeper you'll find me between the lines I see you one by one each come undone when there's a rumble to be won It's a riddle, and I'm the man in the middle You have it on good faith, you know you gave it a fair shake And you could burn your bridge or patch it up when it breaks Yeah I'm a quick, closed book I know you all wanna read it but I've sealed it up It's a good one, but you're not shaking it open Am I your tug of war, or the thin line that I walk on? If you can't see me I'm the one sleeping in the light It's with me all day long, all night I'm mulling it over How you somehow walk with a hatchet? If you toss it I'll catch it You're like an axe, swinging your facts How can I say who's gone astray? The fence is made So far I've stayed here with one hand on every side 'Cause I'm the man in the middle
