Lyrics
[Verse 1] I followed though the atmosphere As the guitar's feedback climbed The pegs were gold, the band was old They played in half time [Verse 2] Now every dream gets whittled down Just like every fool gets wise You'll never reap of any seed Deprived of sunlight [Chorus] So I've become the middleman The gray areas are mine The in-between, the absentee Is a bеautiful disguise [Verse 3] So I keep my footlights shining bright Just like I keep my exits widе 'Cause I never know when it's time to go It's too crowded now inside [Verse 4] 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 [Chorus] So I've become the middleman The gray areas are fine The "I don't know," the "maybe so" Is the only real reply [Outro] The only real, only true The only real reply The only real, only true The only real reply So I've become the middleman The gray areas are mine The "I don't know," the "maybe so" Is the only true reply It's the only real reply
