Wherestoday - Tightrope Lyrics
Official




I just dreamed that I was attempting
Why, why, why does it feel so tempting?
Seems like another one of those nights, huh?
Made my bed, now I lay in it alright, huh?
Dunno where the sweat and tears begin
Open the floodgates, break the dam, let it in
The current engulfs me 'til the break of dawn
The magic of life is gone...
I'm following my dreams but I'm out of breath
Going through the motion, sickness calls for death
I know fully well how behave my demons
They come and go, perpetual wave
I'm told to hold and, oh man, I'm holding
But what if one day I get tired of swimming?
I know the waters I'm involuntarily swallowing
Years down the drain as I'm nearly drowning
Envying a simpler mind as another sedates
All cries for help have expiration dates...
Is it me or is it borderline?
It feels like tightroping on a string
It takes me nothin' to bend my spine
Sending me to plummet in suffering...
Is it real or is it boldly lying?
I call too often to be worth answering
Crying wolf in sunlight
Across the phone line!
Until the city calls
To witness any falls...
All around the world!
I waver through the halls
Of invisible walls...
All around the world!
Another day, another fight...
It's too late now, you're out of sight...
Maybe there's reason for the distance
Maybe, no room for coexistence...
But the only regret that I have
Is I leave you... with more trauma than you used to
Who knew? Of course, this ain't new
If I could really change, I would've on day two
You once told me "no one should ever love you"
Well maybe you're right
When my mind plays games, we're defeated
And if love was a game, then I cheated
And if trauma's a play, I repeated
Everyone's seated, my role is heated...
So who's this me who's got this rage?
Am I splitting? Or is it just hairs?
We make up, and we turn the page
But comes a point when it just tears...
Is it me or is it borderline?
It feels like tightroping on a string
It hurts to ask but I must incline
Did I ever deserve this ring?
Is it real or is it boldly lying?
If I was genuine I wouldn't sing
Under the spotlight
I play my last line!
Until I end it all
No one cares in the stalls...
All around the world!
By which the curtain calls
And every flower falls...
All around the world!
And they're out there sitting...
While they're all there seeing...
I sing my soul tonight...
All around the world!
All around the world...
Everything is perfect
Everything is perfect
Everything is perfect
Everything is perfect
