I ask what it's like to be stuck in the middle
You tell me I should know. At least I've gotten this far
Only another six months or so to go.
I'm not sure what I'm waiting for
I just know I'm not there yet
I'm scared of hurting you along the way
But if I don't there will be nothing left

An empty life, a useless shell, a shadow of what used to care.
A restless limp, a careful movement, the loving way we used to share.
I'm taller now but that's a lie, I wish advice was all you'd left behind
I'm sorry for you every day.

I wanna be everything but I've stopped trying to be anything
I'm not used to this kind of cold
I hate this time of year
I'm sitting on this damp cold fence
Afraid of jumping off and making sense
In case I think you're right and leave your side
I think you've made a huge mistake .

An empty life, a useless shell, a shadow of what used to care.
A restless limp, a careful movement, the loving way we used to share.
I'm taller now but that's a lie, I wish advice was all you'd left behind
I'm sorry for you every day.

Falling - wasn't the easiest thing to do.
Freezing - shaking my body next to you.
Changing didn't know you could follow through.
Falling - wasn't the easiest thing to do
Pleasing - I should've push right next to you
Crawling - Making my way back to you.

And I can't look you in the eye because you know my life's a lie.

For 24 months I've walked these same streets twice a day
And I never caught sight of you or heard something you might say.
For the last two weeks I've been thinking of you, you've been screaming at me and it's making me weak.

I need to call you up and tell you that I miss you.
