Tightrope

There's a thin line to where it all starts

But that line starts to fade when your life starts to fall apart

But can I try again?

But can I try again?

Oh, there is no way I can let these thoughts win

It's just a circus act

Over and over again

I'm walking on thin lines

I'm running out of time

It's just a circus act

Over and over again

My time to walk the rope

with little to no hope

Oh, reality has struck

No, you can't tell me I'm this fucked

Everyday I get up it's a balancing act

Facing the fantasy that I cannot get back

They tell you just look out

Look behind or turn around

Just keep looking forward or else you're gonna fall down

But you can't fall if you're on the ground from the start

But my eye's in the sky so if I fall I know that it's my own fault...

Don't tell me what to do

You're not in my fucking shoes

You don't understand the things I have in my head

Don't tell me what to do

You're not walking the skyline

Wish you could understand what's happening in my mind

I'm blinded by these bright spotlights

As a matter of fact, I can't accept that

Can't put on a smile; I know that for a fact

But rveryday I get up it's a balancing act

I'll walk on this tightrope

Facing something I can't have back

They tell you just look out

Look behind or turn around

Just keep looking forward or else you're gonna fall down

But you can't fall if you're on the ground from the start

But my eye's in the sky so if I fall I know that it's my own fault...

One step forward, but two steps back

Two steps forward, but three steps back

"DON'T LOOK BACK!"

They said.

"DON'T TURN AROUND!"

They said.

"DON'T LOOK BACK!"

They said.

So explain why I fell?

Opening my eyes

Now facing all of my lies

Standing on the podium from one end to the other

But the line gets further

They tell you just look out

Look behind or turn around

Just keep looking forward or else you're gonna fall down

But you can't fall if you're on the ground from the start

But my eye's in the sky so if I fall I know that it's my own fault...
