I'm on a tightrope
You've got your reasons
When did it get so hard to breathe
Hide in the spotlight
I'm feeling so tired
Your hands are burned from holding me
And maybe you and I will fall in time
Eventually
Maybe we'll both die trying
But I can't bring myself to leave
'Cause I blew it

And I ain't seen nothing like you
The way you light up every room tonight so easily
And I have moved mountains babe just a stumble into your good grace,
And I, I still can't compete

You're on a tightrope
I've got my reasons
How did we get so tangled?
You turn, I stay straight
I bend as you break,
We're so messed up, but I know,
That you and I will fall in time
Eventually
Or maybe we'll both die trying

'Cause I ain't seen nothing like you
The way you light up every room tonight so easily
And I have moved mountains babe just a stumble into your good grace
And I, I still can't compete

You and I will fall in time
Eventually
Or maybe we'll both die trying

'Cause I ain't seen nothing like you
The way you light up every room tonight so easily
And I have moved mountains babe just a stumble into your good grace
And I, I still can't compete
