in the middle

Ok. I realize that I often attribute what I'm feeling, and also express how I'm feeling through music. Dunno why... Music just, well, works... I wish I had more profound thoughts for you this evening. Maybe some more will come to me later on. But I was driving home tonight, when this song came on the radio. Now, I'm a huge Jimmy Eat World fan. Love em. However, the song "In The Middle" drove me nuts when it first came out - mostly because it was so overplayed. Well, I hadn't heard it in a really long time, and it came on the radio as I was driving home, and it was so cool because it was the best song for me to hear at that moment. You know, I never payed attention to the lyrics, but they're kinda cool... Well, at least tonight they were kinda cool... Encouraging to me anyway... So I thought I'd share a little bit of them with you all...

Hey, don't write yourself off yet
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.
Just try your best, try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time,
Little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything, everything will be just fine,
Everything, everything will be alright alright.
Hey, you know they're all the same.
You know you're doing better on your own, so don't buy in.
Live right now, yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.
It just takes some time,
Little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything, everything will be just fine,
Everything, everything will be alright alright.
It just takes some time,
Little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything, everything will be just fine,
Everything, everything will be alright (alright).
Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or looked down on.
Just do your best, do everything you can.
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say.
It just takes some time,
little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything, everything will be just fine,
Everything, everything will be alright alright.
