Mat Tanner - Life in the middle lane lyrics

My eyes are wide and it's not for the first time Cos this is keeping me from sleeping almost every night When I think of the years it stops my heart with fear Cos they've been shorter than I thought and they're not slowing down for anyone here The wheels come off when you try to drive The weight of these wings pulls me down and won't let me fly Life in the middle lane is the perfect place to hide And just watch it pa** you by I'm miles away from where I want to be And all these doors I've seen before laid out in front of me Each one leads to another different dream Of a father/lover/singer/other I can't figure out which one is me The wheels come off... All those mistakes I never got the chance to make As I sat in bubble wrap and got labelled Mr. Play-it-safe But you know that's fine, all these choices were mine And there's no regrets, well none just yet, at least most of the time The wheels come off...
