Tightrope

You seem to love me when I'm not around When I have to go to ground You just seem to want me when I'm never there Silence is everywhere On a tightrope with you Too scared to look down through my fingers Walking a tightrope with you I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose You seem to know where your life's headed next But first you'll just stay in bed Clicking your fingers and dragging your heels The high life is within you On a tightrope with you Too scared to look down through my fingers Walking a tightrope with you I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose We know more than we used to We know more than we used to On a tightrope with you Too scared to look down through my fingers Walking a tightrope with you I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose You seem to love me when I am not around But I have to go to ground But you seem to want me when I am never there Silence is everywhere
