  • I need peace, I need hope, I need guidance
    I need more than myself
    I need light, I need life, I need what I never felt

    Sisters and brothers are picking sides
    And both of our mothers are terrified
    And I'm crying out to an empty sky
    Tell me

    If I hit the ground
    And I fall onto my knees
    Would you hear the sound?
    Am I crazy to think that we
    Could make it out?
    Am I crazier to believe
    There's a middle ground?

    I'm so up, I'm so down, I'm so broken
    I'm so tired I can't sleep
    I'm not mine, I'm not yours, I'm not sure of anything

    Oh, sisters and brothers are picking sides
    And both of our mothers are terrified
    And I'm crying out to an empty sky
    Tell me

    If I hit the ground
    And I fall down to my knees
    Would you hear the sound?
    Am I crazy to think that we
    Could make it out?
    Am I crazier to believe
    There's a middle ground?

    Middle ground, there's a middle ground
    I don't need someone to love
    I just need someone to live for
    Middle ground, there's a middle ground
    On my knees, where I belong
    Please tell me

    If I hit the ground
    And I fall down to my knees
    Would you hear the sound?
    Am I crazy to think that we
    Could ever make it out?
    Am I crazier to believe (to believe)
    There's a middle ground?

    Middle ground (oh), there's a middle ground
    Crazier to believe there's a middle ground
    Middle ground (oh), there's a middle ground
    I need you to believe, oh, there's a middle ground Writer/s: Adam Levine, Andrew Watt, Gregory Hein, Jon Bellion, Marvin Hemmings, Pete Nappi, Rodney Jerkins
