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
