Everyone said it was easy to be,
Like the sound of the sea, and the world abounding,
Everyone wants to sing a simple song,
When we all sing along, it's all the better sounding,
Hey, what's that look on your face, in the place where your hope was erased 'cause you're so understanding'

But you can't see what you never really wanted to be,
You take it away, and give it again to insecurity,
And jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, high to low,
And, to insanity, you don't really have much farther to go,
And you can't see what you never really wanted to be...
To be free, and undermine your insecurity,
And jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, high to low.

Everyone said it's right, but it's wrong,
And I'd love to belong, but the whole thing is saddening,
Like Rodney King; can't we all get along and sing a simple song, that's all the better sounding'
Somebody said, That's my soul up there now,"
And I just can't see how that we ever made it this far.

But you can't see what you never really wanted to be,
You take it away, and give it again to insecurity,
And jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, high to low,
And, to insanity, you don't really have much farther to go,
You can't see what you never really wanted to be...
To be free, and undermine your insecurity,
And jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, high to low.

And jump to the middle, jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, jump to the middle,
So you can't see what you never really wanted to be,
You take it away, and give it again to insecurity,
And jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, high to low,
And, to insanity, you don't really have much farther to go,
You can't see what you never really wanted to be...
To be free, and undermine your insecurity,
And jump to the middle,
Jump to the middle, high to low.
