Lyrics:
I traveled through the atmosphere
As a wall of feedback climbed
The pegs were gold, the band was old
They played in half time
Now every dream gets whittled down
Just like every fool gets wise
'Cause you will never read of any seed
Deprived of sunlight
So I've become the middleman
The gray areas are mine
The in-between, the absentee
is a beautiful disguise
So I keep my footlights shining bright
Just like I keep my exits wide
'Cause I never know when it's time to go
It's too crowded now inside
The dead can hide beneath the ground
And the birds can always fly
But the rest of us do what we must
In constant compromise
So I've become the middleman
The gray areas are fine
The "I don't know," the "maybe so"
Is the only real
It is the only true
Is the only real reply

Bright Eyes - Middleman (Companion Version) (Official Lyric Video)
#BrightEyes #Middleman #Companions - Hudba
Middleman is such a sleeper hit. So glad for this to highlight it.
Thank you Mac for introducing me.
Thank you Connor for filling the void.
I was waiting for a companion to Cassadaga, very nice!
❤ Couldn't imagine my life without your music💯 Your albums are a soundtrack to my life💊
Beautiful ❤❤❤
Strange as this particular song entered my head at work... approximately five hours ago... (Video up approximately 5 hours as of now)
We are living in a simulation.
So good.
Amazing
wow that's really good new version
I love lyric videos, thank youuuuuu
You never read of any seed deprived of sunlight
Oh my god! Yes! 🙌🏻
this is really cool. I amn't sure what it is about 100%, but a lot of the lines are relateable, and I love the instrumentation
Love you Connor, change your set list already and start playing from the companions. You haven't changed it sense last year I wanted to see you in Texas again but didn't :(
It's true that Connor played Chrono Cross, and it's inspired this song?
Is It Me Or Does The Drums Remind One Of MegaMan II??? Great Track
grey areas mine
Cassadaga but make it jazz
It bothers that the lyrics are wrong. It's youll never REAP of any seed, not read...
Smells like cheese doodles
Topsong but
I liked the original (no companion) version more
