Missing the Miracle

You call it "bright"
 And I call it "simple"
 And somewhere in the middle, it's "truth"
 You see the hill
 And I see the castle
 Our front that was united is doomed, ooh, ooh
 You call this "brick-and-mortar"
 I call this "sacred skin"
 You see the figure skater and I fear the ice is thin
 And the light is all around us
 But when we spar, it's dim
 We're right here in the middle, missing the miracle
 ♪
 You see the cloud
 And I see the lighting
 And somewhere in the middle is sun
 And you say, "It's greatness"
 And I say, "Bad timing"
 And when we leave the ring, no one's won, ooh
 I go for the jugular
 You knock 'til you get in
 You hold the loud and raucous, and I hear the dropping pin
 And you run all front and center
 I whisper paper-thin
 We're right here in the middle, missing the miracle, woah
 The winter gets long
 The rapids get white
 And what doesn't kill us turns to grey
 ♪
 You call this "brick-and-mortar"
 I call this "sacred skin"
 You see the figure skater and I fear the ice is thin
 And the light is all around us
 But when we spar, it's dim
 We're right here in the middle, missing the miracle
 Missing the miracle
 (The light is all around us)
 Missing the miracle
 (The light is all around us)
