Tightwire

Get in line against the wall
I've heard enough from your black tongue

Whichever way I turn around
I'm taunted by a voice on the ground

There's already miles to go
I've got nothing left here to hold
Got so many footsteps to go
Heavy from the burden that I chose

Hanging on a tightwire

Hanging on a tightwire

Tied up in this quiet trial

Hanging on a tightwire

Keep your eyes on everyone

Two false moves blink and it's gone

Nothing waits for you to start
No time to mend a fractured heart

It was over hours ago
There is nothing left to unfold

It was finished so long ago
Weighed down by the story I was told

Hanging on a tightwire

Hanging on a tightwire

Tied up in this quiet trial

Hanging on a tightwire

Hanging on a tightwire

Hanging on a tightwire

Tied up in this quiet trial

Hanging on a tightwire

Hanging on a tightwire

Hanging on a tightwire

Tied up in this quiet trial

Hanging on a tightwire
