Middleman |
| I traveled though the atmosphere as a wall of feedback climbed |
| The pegs were gold, the band was old, they played in half time |
| Now every dream gets whittled down just like every fool gets wise |
| You will never reap of any seed deprived of sunlight |
| So I have become the middleman |
| The gray areas are mine |
| The in-between, the absentee |
| Is a beautiful disguise |
| So I keep my footlights shining bright just like I keep my exits wide |
| Because I never know when it’s time to go, it’s too crowded now inside |
| The dead can hide beneath the ground and the birds can always fly |
| But the rest of us do what we must in constant compromise |
| So I have become the middleman |
| The gray areas are fine |
| The «I don’t know,» the «maybe so» |
| Is the only real reply |
| It is the only true reply |
