somewhere inbetween - frank turner lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve been pretending to be somebody else since i was just fifteen
and i don’t know if the show was for them or for me
any more, i’m not sure, and i don’t recall being born
but i remember being underwhelmed when i worked out who i was
because that didn’t fit with any of
the feelings i’d been feeling, the things i started thinking as a kid
who didn’t know how to feel, but could instinctively pretend
put on a show. was it for them? i have forgotten where this ends
[chorus]
blinking in the light, emerging into something
something isn’t right, something isn’t working
no one on my side, no sense of where i’m standing
half my f*cking life caught somewhere in*between
[verse 2]
i have been waiting for someone to say they’ve found out i’m a fake
a foundling fraudster on the take, a huckster hustling half his name
around the world, and i’d reply, goodness knows you’re right
i know that guy, that is to say, i do not know that man at all
after all, no one can, there’s nothing there to know
it’s just a show, oh the lights are on but n0body is home
they kicked me out years ago, changed the locks and took my keys
my memories seen through a window, like something i don’t really own
see frank turner live
get tickets as low as $44
[chorus]
blinking in the light, emerging into something
something isn’t right, something isn’t working
no one on my side, no sense of where i’m standing
half my f*cking life caught somewhere in*between
[bridge]
is it so much to ask? to be offered some protection
to be let go by the past, to feel some acceptance
to find somewhere to belong, and something to belong to
a place where i’m allowed. anywhere but in*between
[outro]
half my f*cking life blinking in the darkness
stuck on the outside, sick and mostly harmless
a stranger to myself, but still chasing their forgiveness
for anything i did when i was somewhere in*between
always somewhere in*between
