I didn't fight my, my way out
Of the suburbs, to drown in the mud
Of the city, that offers all
But gives no reason, when you fall
On a tightrope
That is eager to break
On a tightrope
Spun from the dues that I paid
Walking on a tightrope
And I can't see the ground
On a tightrope
But I'm not looking down
I had to hate you, to love you more
But I can't forgive that, you made me pour
Out every ounce of, blood so true
And made me break my, my cardinal rule
On a tightrope
That is eager to break
On a tightrope
Spun from the dues that I paid
Walking on a tightrope
And I can't see the ground
On a tightrope
But I'm not looking down
Of the suburbs, to drown in the mud
Of the city, that offers all
But gives no reason, when you fall
On a tightrope
That is eager to break
On a tightrope
Spun from the dues that I paid
Walking on a tightrope
And I can't see the ground
On a tightrope
But I'm not looking down
I had to hate you, to love you more
But I can't forgive that, you made me pour
Out every ounce of, blood so true
And made me break my, my cardinal rule
On a tightrope
That is eager to break
On a tightrope
Spun from the dues that I paid
Walking on a tightrope
And I can't see the ground
On a tightrope
But I'm not looking down
