"The streets are on fire in the town that you were born
And all these busy nights took shape in an awkward form
How do you lay with him near?
She says when it comes I just disappear
And I feel so gross
In the middle
Where my heart goes
I'll get it right
What I'm feeling and believing
If I get home tonight
Sun is coming up and I think of where you've been
You'd feel a little impatient if you were living in my skin
The words just fade in my ear
I could take it all but I'm not living when you're not here
And I feel so cold
In the middle
Where my heart goes
I'll get it right
What I'm feeling and believing
If I get home tonight
The look on your face
You can't take away
I'll wait for it everyday
There's a picture I have of you in my mind
You look so perfect and the sun just burns in your eyes
As the hours fade you remain
Underneath the sweat and skin that you betray
And I feel so gross
In the middle
Where my heart goes
I'll get it right
What I'm feeling and believing
If I get home tonight
"
