[Intro]
You let yourself down
You let yourself down

[Verse 1]
I earnt your trust and then I crushed it
Our life was diamond-encrusted
My heart and mind, they went and changed
Gold trims and everything custom
Now you think I am disgusting
But you want it all the same

[Pre-Chorus]
And I did wrong, I hold my hands up
And you told me what that cost
I guess you need to see the change

[Chorus]
Really thought we would meet in the middle
Really thought we would meet in the middle
I let myself down
Then you let yourself down
With respect, it could be so simple
It doesn't hurt me to give you a little
You let yourself down
You let yourself down
I understand you hate me
But Lord knows I'm done trying
You let yourself down
You let yourself down
[Verse 2]
You think it's time for my just deserts
Your friends say "hit me where it hurts"
What's the price to make it stop now?
And we both know how hard I've worked
And you'd leave with all you deserved
If you took the branch I'd laid out

[Chorus]
Really thought we would meet in the middle
Really thought we would meet in the middle
I let myself down
Then you let yourself down
With respect, it could be so simple
It doesn't hurt me to give you a little
You let yourself down
You let yourself down
I understand you hate me
But Lord knows I'm done trying
You let yourself down
You let yourself down

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Really thought we would meet in the middle
Really thought we would meet in the middle
I let myself down
Then you let yourself down
With respect, it could be so simple
It doesn't hurt me to give you a little
You let yourself down
You let yourself down
I understand you hate me
But Lord knows I'm done trying
You let yourself down
You let yourself down
