[Verse 1]
And I've heard the words that hurt, said in verse
And I'm done stroking on the cause
That's come and gone
And it's come and gone

[Chorus]
So put 'em in the middle to start with
Push out all their egos they hide in
It's funny where the mind goes without it
Now it's a simple silence

[Post-Chorus]
Put 'em right down in the middle (To start with)
Pushing out all of their egos (They hide in)
It's funny where the mind goes (Without it)
Now it's just as simple as silence

[Verse 2]
Nurtured, we've let
Them be in fragility
And fought for all this time
To be the ones ostracised
And in plain sight, ah-ah-ah

[Chorus]
So put 'em in the middle to start with
Push out all their egos they hide in
It's funny where the mind goes without it
Now it's a simple silence
[Post-Chorus]
Put 'em right down in the middle (To start with)
Pushing out all of their egos (They hide in)
It's funny where the mind goes (Without it)
Now it's just as simple as silence

[Chorus]
Put 'em in the middle to start with
Push out all their egos they hide in
It's funny where the mind goes without it
Now it's a simple silence

[Post-Chorus]
Put 'em right down in the middle (To start with)
Pushing out all of their egos (They hide in)
It's funny where the mind goes (Without it)
Now it's just as simple as silence

[Chorus]
Put 'em in the middle
Pushing out their egos
It's funny where the mind goes
And now it's just as simple
