Living on a wire, the sight of you could save my skin
|
And the sun is in my eyes, and the breeze lifts the hair from my neck
|
So precariously I am inching my way across my life
|
I could fall if you don't call
|
a sick safety net appears when I'm with you
|
|
Oh, I climb, so high waiting to fall
|
And then I cry, like a child, on a neverending ride
|
|
How does it go down, when you're the biggest kid in your own playground
|
And how do you see me, how do I fit in your hierarchy?
|
Oh you tell the girls line up in single file, just gotta rearrange my denial
|
So I can play with you, and now I see, all the shit that isn't me
|
I'm too relieved to be mad, relieved and sad
|
|
I misplaced my mind, thought it was lost
|
But now I find, you were just very, very unkind
|
|
You know I always found, that my feet were dangling looking for solid ground
|
Is it maybe worth closing down the Ivory Tower
|
And coming back down to earth?
