Middle
Embrace Tomorrow: Decoding the Meaning Behind Katie Herzig's 'Middle'
Lyrics
Split yourself down the middle
Divide yourself in two parts
Take one half away
Remove one of those parts
Make one seem the best so the
Elevate or make one side appear superior
Least can have it's way
Allow the less favored side to have its way
Split yourself down the middle
Separate yourself into two halves again
Make one side the past
Designate one side as the past
You’re left with the future and
What remains is the future
Maybe it will last
Expresses hope that this future might endure
Sell all of your burdens
Get rid of all your heavy responsibilities
Keep all of your prayers
Retain and preserve your hopes and wishes
And then say goodbye to the
Bid farewell to the life that brought you to this point
Life that got you here
Implies the decision isn’t as simple as anticipated
It isn’t as easy as I thought it’d be
Expresses the difficulty in making the choice
Choosing the side that is everything I need
Choosing the side that fulfills all requirements
Split yourself down the middle
Split yourself into two again
Take one half away
Remove one of those halves
Make one seem the best so the
Make one side appear more preferable
Least can have it's way
Allow the less favored side to prevail
Split yourself down the middle
Divide yourself in two once more
Make one side the past
Designate one side as the past
And now it’s the future and baby it’ll last
Now, what remains is seen as the future, and there’s hope it will endure
