    LYRICS:
    I rest my head
    Between the bed and sky
    Download my dread
    Disarm my mind, make it dry
    Nothing in motion, and I’m satisfied
    No disappointment, until I wake up
    I Don’t want to wake up
    Into clear space
    Vivid vision, see her shape
    At my bedside, beam up my mind please
    Nothing in motion, and I’m satisfied
    No disappointment, until I wake up
    I Don’t want to wake up

      I absolutely agree. I love the album Opaline and Somewhere In the Middle takes me back to some great years. That song is my favorite rock song along with Give. JR's voice is so unique. He turned me on to live music. Before him I wasn't a fan of live music. It took buying and listening to "Live... Greetings from the Flow State" to get me in to live music. Now I cannot get enough of his live music.

    Met JR in Tallahassee after a concert at Floyd's. He sat with us for a good while and was so real, kind and present. This song gave words to a time of depression in my life and brought me company. I have a close and loving family, but this song sat next to me in a different way. JR has one of the most phenomenal voices on this planet. His writing is beyond brilliant. Can't wait to see him live again one day. Thank you so much, JR. I and this Universe are grateful for you.

    Dear. JR.Richards. Hello! I'm fifteen years old and I live in south korea. Although this is my first youtube comment that I'm making on your videos (also this is my first youtube comment ever), I can say with confidence that your songs mean the world to me. angles or devils, somewhere in the middle, candle burn and untill I wake up are my favorite songs in the entire world.....It seems likely that I will never meet you in person, but I just wanted you to know that your music helped me grow up and I can't express this enough but I really really love your music. It helped me through my worst times with my family and friends... but you kept me strong.. I love you so much. seriously so much. I hope you keep doing music. 사랑해요!! (This means I love you in my native language. Also excuse my bad English. We don't speak English in my country) looking forward to listening to more music of yours, bye!

    I first heard Dishwalla when I was in the military probably almost 24 years ago. Back when you had to go to a music store and I put those headphones on to test out a CD and listened to some samples of “and you think you know what life’s about.”Every time I hear this it brings me back to Arizona. So much love for this album. Please keep it up!

    Absolutely beautiful version! Thank you for being honest about your history with depression. I've had a recent bout with the hell of it - It's such an extremely lonely and defeating battle. I had listened to the earlier versions of this song as it represented how I felt even before I knew why you wrote it. You don't want another day of disappointment. Your only want your mind to stop beating you down. Fortunately I have been able to help others (with empathy) since I am now a nurse in a psychiatric facility and I see the same battles starting in teens and destroying lives. It is so sad to see lives wasting away and the stigma of mental despair makes them want to hide away. I will be there for them just as you have opened up. Thanks again!

I couldn't sleep for a week until I gave her eulogy and said my goodbyes.

    Songs are emotions, they are not good or bad, right or wrong, but they can be the reflection of where you are on the road, for me I recognize this as a crossroads I have been to, in all its movement it is strangely yet very still and quiet, hauntingly beautiful, it does not depress me to listen, quite the opposite, it gives that place validation and allows me to carry forward, so it becomes a song of hope.

I love Dishwalla even to this day.

      They are together playing, on tour now. My understanding is JR doesn't want to live that life anymore and has chosen solo work on his terms. The rest of Dishwalla wants to continue on so Justin Fox is their singer now. Can't blame them for wanting to continue as Dishwalla nor blame JR for wanting to do what he wants. I would assume JR has given them his blessing though I don't really know the relationship status. Maybe JR will want to come back someday but where does that leave Fox if he does?

      And Justin Fox does an exceptional job. Saw them in Phoenix last November. I walked into the show a total skeptic and walked out excited for new material (which they are working on).

      Justin Kinkade I saw them in Tucson earlier this year & while the show was excellent....it felt like it was lacking. There were only a handful of fans though which was hard to believe. The new lead singer did an admirable job....buuut I still wish they would re-unite.

I truly miss the 80s and 90s...and even the early 2000s for that matter...I never thought that you were underrated either...I remember every time a Dishwalla song was on the radio...the DJ would always say "this guy has an amazing voice" ...Most great Talents usually come before their time...You came around "Somewhere In The Middle" ..God Bless..

    This Is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, performed by one of the greatest voices and songsmiths to ever release that fear and freedom, to sing with such truly gifted timbre of tone, perfect in pitch, and with the truth of ones soul. I have been inspired as a singer myself, way back from the Pet Album, and the Song Give just moved me so. But I have held this song in my clutches and embrace since the moment I first heard it. It is one of your souls triumphs, as are so many more, Every Little Thing, Angels or Devils, Nashville, and onward to a most impressive library of craft. I can't wait for new music from you. You are a rare and precious talent, and person. Thank you for filling my life and those I have brought your music to, because we all are better for it, good luck and Thank you.
