I get down with the victim
We both know you need them
You′re stuck in the middleOf all irrelevance
And your heart is beating
'Cause you know that you gotta
Get out of the middle
And rise to the top now
When you′ve made it
Won't you tell me what to do?
'Cause I′m playin′ it all wrong
When you've made it (when you′ve made it)
Won't you tell me what to do?
′Cause I'm playin′ it all wrong
You can't fight the friction, so (ease it off)
You can't take the pressure, so (ease it off)
Don′t tell me to be strong (ease it off)
You can′t fight the friction, so
Ease it off
And get into the system
We both know you need one
At the tip of the needle
Is taking over you
And your heart is beating
'Cause you know that you gotta
Get out of the middle
And rise to the top now
When you′ve made it
Won't you tell me what to do?
′Cause I'm playin′ it all wrong
When you've made it (when you've made it)
Won′t you tell me what to do?
′Cause I'm playin′ it all wrong
You can't fight the friction, so (ease it off)
You can′t take the pressure, so (ease it off)
Don't tell me to be strong (ease it off)
You can′t fight the friction, so
Ease it off
Oh, why can't you let go?
Like a bird in the snow
This is no place to build your home
You can't fight the friction, so (ease it off)
You can′t take the pressure, so (ease it off)
Don′t tell me to be strong (ease it off)
You can't fight the friction, so
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
