Take the darkest of the darkest nights 
Combine it with the brightest of the sun's bright rays 
And you'll see what I see in my head 
What I see every day 

From the pit of despair 
To the arch of euphoric transcendence 
I'm the middle man monkey, the misery junkie 
The cat walking barbed wire fences 

I've been searching high and low 
Up and down and carrying my heavy load 
High and low and up and down and all around 
Been trying to find the middle road 
I been trying to find it 

Whenever God shines his light 
I put on my best sunglasses 
Whatever truth that shines through, for a moment I view 
But of course then the moment it passes 

And I'm standing alone again 
At the crossroads of my melodrama 
With my heart in my hand, dumb and silent I stand 
Like some dime store Dalai Lama 

I been searching high and low... 

Angel, devil, it's all the same 
Each one knows me by name 
Each one knows me, they all know me by name 

Come the morning of my soul's dark night 
When I've laid to rest these ghosts that haunt me 
With sweet tenderness I will kiss your red lips 
Not the past or the future shall daunt me 

But that day ain't here just yet 
So I'm stuck here on this roller coaster 
With my hands in the air, on a wing and a prayer 
Hoping it's taking me closer 

I been searching high and low...
