You call it bright and I call it simple
And somewhere in the middle is truth
And you see the hill and I see the castle
Our front that was united is doomed ooh
You call this brick and mortar I call this sacred skin
You see the figure skater and I fear the ice is thin
And the light is all around us but when we spar it's dim
We're right here in the middle missing the miracle
You see the cloud and I see the lining
And somewhere in the middle is sun
And you say it's greatness" and I say bad timing
And when we leave the ring no one's won ooh
I go for the jugular you knock 'til you get in
You hold the loud and raucous and I hear the dropping pin
And you run all front and center I whisper paper thin
We're right here in the middle missing the miracle
The winter gets long
The rapids get white
And what doesn't kill us turns to grey
You call this brick and mortar I call this sacred skin
You see the figure skater and I fear the ice is thin
And the light is all around us but when we spar it's dim
We're right here in the middle missing the miracle
Missing the miracle (the light is all around us)
Missing the miracle (the light is all around us)
Missing the miracle
