Have you ever been in a relationship where the one you are dating seems to be into the relationship one day, and then totally distant the next day? And it's just this constant back and forth and you never know what kind of day it's going to be? That's what I thought of when I first heard this song. Vertical Horizon is no new thing in the music scene, but they do have a new album coming out this year. I got it last week and listened through it today and this one stuck out more than any of the others because of the chorus. "Take me in or take me out; put me on if you must or just put me down... I'm done with the middle ground."
The Middle Ground
You illuminate me
You're the color I see
You're all that shines above
Through the dark and distrust
All the doubt in your eyes
All the stars in mine
Is it the distance you need
Or is it just me
I know you're awake
'Cause you shake when you cry
As long as I wait I've got nothing but time
[Chorus:]
Take me in or just take me out
Put me on if you must or just put me down
'Cause I'm done
I'm all worn out
We're either alive or a lie
I'm done with the middle ground
You're the wind at my back
You're the courage I lack
But you live your life like a war
What are you fighting for
Your touch is the water that gives and takes away
So I wait in the gutter for another rainy day
[Chorus]
You close your eyes to see the sun
And all the things you've never done
They all come out in the dark
And once again just break your heart
I know you're awake
'Cause you shake when you cry
I'll hold you I'll hold you but you've got to decide
[Chorus]
