Cut Me Down the Middle

I was seeing in double, I could hardly find an open door
I was looking for trouble, I got much more than I bargained for
‘cause tonight you don’t believe me, but by light you’ll never see me anymore

Cut me down the middle, you can take whichever half you like
Cut me down the middle, you can take whichever half is right
‘cause tonight, I see you shining, but you are not so blinding as moonlight

You punched me like a phantom, but still you knocked me clean right off my feet
You threw it like a tantrum, before it hit I knew that I was beat
You held half of me for ransom, the other half sang anthems in the street

Cut me down the middle, the halves of me no longer get a long
Cut me down the middle, separate the right side from the wrong
‘cause tonight I’m split to two parts, take the half with the heart and I’ll stay strong
