Middle Earth ft. Factor Chandelier & Sammus Lyrics

Slipping my way through the cracks and I hope you don't overreact when my body collapses

I've been wandering, hoping to find my own place on this planet

I've been up in the middle of it, I've been up in the middle of it, in the middle earth

I've been nothing but real with you, I've been nothing but real with you

Slipping my way through the cracks and I hope you don't overreact when my body collapses

I've been wandering, hoping to find my own place on this planet

I've been up in the middle of it, I've been up in the middle of it, in the middle earth

I've been nothing but real with you, I've been nothing but real with you

Till the dirt

Is honesty overrated

How many times have I said the same thing in new ways

Start to think it's the way that my life's gonna be and I guess that's okay

Wanted to be a grunge singer when I was a child

Grew up fast and wild, now the crow's feet are crawling all over my face every time that I smile

What you know about being decapitated when your body still rolls around aimlessly

Is there a way for me to face my infinite demons and maintain a sense of stability

Hustling for pennies like I was still 14

I ain't ready to grow up

Just wasn't made for these times

Realize I will never blow up and that's fine

I'm not Cobain or Cornell or Lane

I'm just floating inside my own lane

Every word that I'm singing is plain

Just hoping that someone out there can relate

And there's times when I hate my brain

Wanna drive directly into trees

Think of six million ways to stop breathing when my heart is pounding from the anxiety

Every year it gets sadder and fatter till the point that you realize none of it matters much

For the minutes we have on this planet we're seeking love and that's more than enough

Call it what you want, call it God, call it your freedom

That connection between living beings is a powerful thing and that's real to us

Slipping my way through the cracks

Slipping my way through the cracks

And I know she don't love me like that

I know she don't love me like that

Not the game nor the lady

Maybe neither of them gonna love me back

Slipping my way through the cracks

And I know she don't love me like that

Not the game nor the lady

Maybe neither of them gonna love me back

I am a middle child

It took me a little while to stop trying to get the approval of others

It's better than living life in denial

My worst fear's to be middling in my nightmares I'm a kid again

And my teacher is asking my chosen career

I deceive her cause that's what adults wanna hear

They like doctors, firefighters, not a future that's odd like it's Tyler's

It's probably a sign I can't lie through my teeth

I was missing my two front incisors

But now I sink my canines into sound rhymes like they steak knives

Anxiety tried me, I've died, been revived

So I'm trying to hold on to my eight lives

And I cannot pretend I could handle it if I ended up in middle management

Yeah I have to be fucking with something I love if I'm burning both ends of my candlestick

And even then, I'm a little carp, busy giving birth to a great tale

To my biggest fans, I am Jonah Park, walking middle earth in my chain mail

Slipping my way through the cracks and I hope you don't overreact when my body collapses

I've been wandering hoping to find my own place on this planet

I've been up in the middle of it, I've been up in the middle of it, in the middle earth

I've been nothing but real with you, I've been nothing but real with you

Slipping my way through the cracks and I hope you don't overreact when my body collapses

I've been wandering hoping to find my own place on this planet

I've been up in the middle of it, I've been up in the middle of it, in the middle earth

I've been nothing but real with you, I've been nothing but real with you

Till the dirt
