“Stuck in the Middle” by Mike Posner

“Stuck in the Middle” is a ballad by American singer Mike Posner. The lyrics of this ballad chronicle the emotions of someone who is “stuck” in an unhappy romantic relationship. For instance, the narrator is cognizant that his partner is cheating. Yet despite the fact that he is not happy in the relationship, he is afraid to bring the issue up with his lover. He also expresses the sentiment that it is easier to be cold-hearted toward his love than patient and relaxed. He then articulates that in his search to fulfill his personal aspirations, he has instead lost himself.

After all is said and done, Posner ends the song on a positive note of hope due to rediscovering who he truly is.
