Holdin' the middle of a rope
When either end won't pull the weight
How much more can I give way?
Before I feel like I have sinned
Turn it off, put it away
The dark will creep back on any given day
Night creeps over open space
Time away lord from that pointless race
If I tugged on an end would you see
Oh how the end's supposed to be
If I gave you a look on the other side
Would you see what's in my mind?
Would you see what's in my mind?
Backmind won't leave it all alone
It finds its way back, it makes itself at home
No use to help on either end
One side gives it all and the other won't give in
If I tugged on an end would you see
Oh how the end's supposed to be
If I gave you a look on the other side
Would you see what's in my mind?
Would you see what's in my mind?
Well I know it won't be long
To hear those voices together in a song
You don't change, you learn to build
The troubles of this world mean nothing in the end
If I tugged on an end would you see
How the end's supposed to be, yeah
If I gave you a look on the other side
Would you see what's in my mind?
Would you see what's in my mind?
Would you see what's in my mind?
Woah, would you see what's in my mind?
On either end
On either end
On either end
On either end
