The Middle

[Verse 1]
Every time I go through your town on the fast train
I wonder what you'd think about if you heard my last name
I bet you only told your friends about the bad days
Is it better now I'm keeping out of your way?

[Pre-Chorus]
Thinkin' about my regrets
Things I should've said

[Chorus]
I never told you at the time
I missed out all the warning signs
I was going out of my mind
You were caught in the middle, caught in the middle
I'm sorry that I'm here too late
I'm waking up from my mistakes
I'm sorry for the mess I made
You were caught in the middle, caught in the middle

[Verse 2]
I never stopped thinking about it, now it's all over
And you're in the clear
I wonder if you're carrying a chip upon your shoulder
Is time not a healer?
I was living in an overcrowded headspace
It's no excuse for putting you in such a bad place

[Pre-Chorus]
Thinkin' about my regrets
Things I should've said

[Chorus]
But I never told you at the time
I missed out all the warning signs
I was going out my mind
You were caught in the middle, caught in the middle
And I'm sorry that I'm here too late
I'm waking up from my mistakes
I'm sorry for the mess I made
You were caught in the middle, caught in the middle

[Bridge]
No, I couldn't forget
I can't put this to bed
All these things I regret
Things I never said
No, I couldn't forget
I can't put this to bed
All these things I regret

[Chorus]
I never told you at the time
I missed out all the warning signs
I was going out my mind
You were caught in the middle, caught in the middle
And I'm sorry that I'm here too late
I'm waking up from my mistakes
I'm sorry for the mess I made
You were caught in the middle, just caught in the middle, caught in it but

[Outro]
Sorry that I'm here too late
Waking up from my mistakes
And I'm sorry for the mess I made (Whoa)
I can't forget
