Middle man...

by SplitSided   Jan 17, 2006


One talk after another.
But you have to realize that I\'m only your brother.
I can go for awhile.
I can fake a smile.
Everything else is up to you.
I can't choose what it is that you do.
Your problems with her stay between her and you.
It doesn't matter what I say or do.
I want to reach for your hand.
But there's one thing that you have to understand.
I'm only one man.
I can't be there everytime you fall.
I can't be there everytime that you call.
I'll go with you have way.
And say what is it that I have to say.
But that's as far as I'll go.
And the rest will have to flow.
I can't be your middle man forever.
That's one road that I'll walk, never.
I won't play the he said, she said game.
I won't be the one to blame.
When this falls apart.
I bend so far before I break.
And your temper is getting hard to take.
Do this, do that.
Well hey man, sooner or later your gonna end up watchin your own back.
Your my brother I won't leave you out in the cold.
But this middle man thing is gettin kinda old.
And I'm about to fold.
Cards down.
'm out.
I don't wanna play this game anymore.
And with that I'd set out to find something more.
I have bigger things to deal with.
Than she did this.
That's your own thing.
Your the one that decided to go out on that string.
And it snapped.
She don't want you back.
Well I'm your fall back.
But not for good.
And I'm gonna live my life like I should.
I take your temper as best as I can.
But I don't wanna be your middle man...
