The Parachute Club - Middle Child lyrics

Born in a changing time Held in the arms of a world grown cold How could I know? Can't tell my left from right Watching deception, it's bought and sold Which way to go? Right on the edge of time where you're alone Between the compromise of young and old You have to leave behind all you've been shown To be a middle child, the one who knows d**h in the dreamer's eyes I heard the cry in the city's soul I couldn't move Torn between dark and light Walking the line of a narrow road What would you do? In the middle, oh-oh-oh-oh... Right on the edge of time where you're alone Between the compromise of young and old You have to leave behind all you've been shown To be a middle child, the one who knows Wait, chained by the past Wait, tied to tomorrow Wait, can't find myself Wait, I just want to know Wait, run from the fire Wait, run from the cold Wait, run out of time Wait, just watch me go Look at the twilight sky Light isn't only black and white We need them both How can our world survive Until we learn how to let these sorrows go We need to grow I am a middle child, I hold my own Upon the edge of time, I am alone Between the compromise of young and old I am a middle child, the one who knows I am a middle child, I hold my own Upon the edge of time, I am alone Between the compromise of young and old I am a middle child, the one that's wild
