I've been called to testify
A hired gun who could abandon,
All these fools who tried to sermonize,
That my misery is measured, scored with a system,
A cold and callous case of a calculated lie,
but in place of pain or praise,
Just leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, and I'll always make.
I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep my bearings straight.
I screamed on my soapbox,
For the martyr of hurt
And I slaved for years just to be heard,
Above the mess of masses, and droning tones
But I concede reality is different than I'd hoped.
Leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, I'll always make.
I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep me on the true and narrow.
No noise, I'm better poised to keep my bearings straight.
I don't care, if you believe me,
I'm still here, but not completely,
Lost myself inside myself again.
I don't care, if you believe me,
I'm still here, but not completely,
Lost myself inside myself again.
Leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, I'll always make.
And I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep me on the true and narrow.
No noise, I'm better poised to keep my bearings straight.

I've been called to testify
A hired gun who could abandon,
All these fools who tried to sermonize,
That my misery is measured, scored with a system,
A cold and callous case of a calculated lie,
but in place of pain or praise,
Just leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, and I'll always make.
I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep my bearings straight.
I screamed on my soapbox,
For the martyr of hurt
And I slaved for years just to be heard,
Above the mess of masses, and droning tones
But I concede reality is different than I'd hoped.
Leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, I'll always make.
I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep me on the true and narrow.
No noise, I'm better poised to keep my bearings straight.
I don't care, if you believe me,

Lost myself inside myself again.
I don't care, if you believe me,
I'm still here, but not completely,
Lost myself inside myself again.
Leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, I'll always make.
And I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep me on the true and narrow.
No noise, I'm better poised to keep my bearings straight.

Leave me to the same mistakes,

Lost myself inside myself again.
Leave me to the same mistakes,
I've always made, I'll always make.
And I don't want love, but I don't need hate,
Just a simple middle of the road to keep me on the true and narrow.
No noise, I'm better poised to keep my bearings straight.
