Middle Way

The road of life is paved with extremes,
Broken hearts and shattered dreams,
Reaching out for things that aren't real,
Let them dictate the way we feel.
And don't you know
It's in your best interests to go with the flow.
Can you see
It's what we both need for you and me.
I'm taking the middle way,
I'm taking the middle way.
I don't care what you say,
I'm taking the middle way.
Spin the wheel, where does it stop?
Around and 'round 'til you’ve had enough.
If I define cause and effect,
Your choice is liberty or death.
And don't you know
It's in your best interests to go with the flow.
Can you see
It's what we both need for you and me.
I'm taking the middle way,
I'm taking the middle way.
I don't care what you say,
I'm taking the middle way.
What if I told you that the world was gonna end tomorrow,
Would you re-evaluate, try to moderate,
Get some insight and try to understand your world?
Your world.
So may ways in which things transpire,
We search for a way to put out the fire,
Like a kid with matches in hand,
A metaphor for the flames that I fan.
Don't you know
It's in your best interests to go with the flow.
Can you see
It's what we both need for you and me.
I'm taking the middle way,
I'm taking the middle way.
I don't care what you say,
I'm taking the middle way.
I'm taking the middle way,
I'm taking the middle way.
I don't care what you say,
I'm taking the middle way. Go!
