Silence, nothing but the deafening silence
We've made a weapon of the quiet
Sharpening words, this is the calm before the storm
We're spinning
This is no way to be living
Stuck in a battle no one's winning
Is this what we want?
This love is done, we can't go on
And I'm stuck in the middle
Brought down by friendly fire
Now, I'm looking from the outside
I can see a scene and you lied
We were caught up in the crossfire
And I think about the old days
When I said that we were always
Well, I love you, but I can't stay
Caught in the middle

Caught in the middle
♪
Burning, my body seems to be learning
And so the barrels keep on turning
The smoke in the air
We run and then, run back again
I've waited, all of my life I have waited
I really thought that we had made it
I guess I was wrong
This love is done, we can't go on
And I'm stuck in the middle
Brought down by friendly fire
Now, I'm looking from the outside
I can see a scene and you lied
We were caught up in the crossfire
And I think about the old days
When I said that we were always
Well, I love you, but I can't stay
Caught in the middle (shots fired when we're too high, you and I)
Caught in the middle (so tired, I'm sick of this fight, we ride)

Oh, ohh...
Get caught in the middle
And I love you, but I can't stay
