[VERSE 1]
Cm
 I get down with the victim
Cm
 We both know you need them
Cm
 You're stuck in the middle
Cm
 Of all irrelevance

 And your heart is a beating
Cm
 'Cause you know that you gotta
Cm 
 Get out of the middle
Cm
 And rise to the top now

 Won't you tell me what to do

 Cause I'm playing it, all wrong

 You can't fight the friction, so 

 Ease it off


[VERSE 2]
Cm
 And get into the system
Cm
 We both know you need one

 The tip of the needle

 It's taking over you

 And your heart is beating

 Cause you know that you gotta
Cm
 Get out of the middle
Cm
 And rise to the top now
