Lyrics Middleman (Remastered) - Bright Eyes
I
traveled
through
the
atmosphere
as
a
wall
of
feedback
climbed
The
pegs
were
gold,
the
band
was
old,
they
played
in
half
time
Now
every
dream
gets
whittled
down
just
like
every
fool
gets
wise
′Cause
you'll
never
reap
of
any
seed
deprived
of
sunlight
So
I′ve
become
the
Middleman
The
gray
areas
are
mine
The
in-between,
the
absentee
Is
a
beautiful
disguise
So
I
keep
my
footlights
shining
bright
just
like
I
keep
my
exits
wide
'Cause
I
never
know
when
it's
time
to
go,
it′s
too
crowded
now
inside
The
dead
can
hide
beneath
the
ground
and
the
birds
can
always
fly
But
the
rest
of
us
do
what
we
must
in
constant
compromise
So
I′ve
become
the
Middleman
The
gray
areas
are
fine
The
"I
don't
know,"
the
"maybe
so"
Is
the
only
real
Is
the
only
true
Is
the
only
real
