I'm Not An Idiot

Ne-Yo · Other Songs - Ne-Yo

I'm not an idiot, tho I may get some things wrong.

I'm not stupid, I'm figuring it out as I go along.

Sometimes my mind and heart disagree

and I dont always know who to follow so where does that leave me?



Stuck in the middle, of this small space

**With just a number on this day**

I never said I knew what was I doing

I'm stuck in the middle of wrong and right,

with no-one to be my guide in life.

I never said I knew what I was doing



Cause a fiction, is that the way to go?

Is that the road I should be on?

Or is it forgiveness?

I'm damned if I do, I'm damned if I dont



My mind says let go,

My heard says hold on,

What the hell do you do when both feel right,

But both feel wrong?

**With just a number on this day**

I never said I knew what I doing

I'm stuck in the middle of wrong and right,

with no-one to be my guide in life.

I never said I knew what I was doing



Everybody knows what I should of done,

Everyone's got the answers but the ones I need to be

alright with who I see in the mirror.



Stuck in the middle, of this small space

**With just a number on this day**

I never said I knew what I doing

I'm stuck in the middle of wrong and right,

with no-one to be my guide in life.

I never said I knew what I was doing



Stuck in the middle, of this small space

**With just a number on this day**

I never said I knew what I doing

I'm stuck in the middle of wrong and right,

with no-one to be my guide in life.

I never said I knew what I was doing
