Back to the middle and don't you remember? Every day was another fish tank and your head Swims around and you wrote us a letter Sayin' things will get much better, goes Back to the middle and don't you remember? Every night, there's a tiny porch light in our chest Pulls clouds of bugs to flutter We felt loved as they carried us, carried us Back to the middle and don't you remember? Our head is a cage and the parrot loves to talk We built a cabin and we built a castle I just don't believe it was worth all the hassle, you know? We lived in cities and we lived in caves I guess I'd like to move back to the middle again Back to the middle and don't you remember? Our head is a cage and the parrot, it won't shut up Back to the middle and don't you remember? Now and then we would take our ladder and See if we will climb to the heavens or Shift our gaze and climb down to never go Back to the middle and don't you remember? Every winter, we would wish it were warmer and Every summer, I will knit you a sweater Scratch words in the dirt to remember that We're up here right now, not forever, we'll Be pulled right back down to the middle again
