Tightwire
Smoke and mirrors make the whole world clearer
Illusion comes and swallows you whole
Reason cheats me, I lose myself completely
I have no control
She's a silhouette, skinny shadow climbing up the wall
Covering my eyes 'til it's dark and I can't see at all
I'm crawling through a tunnel towards the light
Looking for a feeling, but the feeling just ain't right
Days and nights all going by so fast
I sit alone for hours, but the panic doesn't pass
Try to speak
But everyone around me just looks at me like I'm speaking in tongues
Think I'm dreaming 'til I notice I'm awake
Now I'm all alone screaming at the top of my lungs
The world is sinking fast
Gotta find a way right out of here
Darkness drops again
I can feel the water drawing near
In a dream, I'm suddenly aware
I'm standing on a tightwire high up in the air
Shaking legs just long for solid ground
I am tired, I am frightened, but I can't help looking down
She's a silhouette, skinny shadow climbing up the wall
Covering my eyes 'til it's dark and I can't see at all
I look out on the city late at night
Buildings come together in a glowing pool of light
Embers from a long-forgotten flame
Turn my eyes to heaven, but it just don't look the same
It just don't look the same, no
It just don't look the same
It just don't look the same, no
It just don't
Illusion comes and swallows you whole
Reason cheats me, I lose myself completely
I have no control
She's a silhouette, skinny shadow climbing up the wall
Covering my eyes 'til it's dark and I can't see at all
I'm crawling through a tunnel towards the light
Looking for a feeling, but the feeling just ain't right
Days and nights all going by so fast
I sit alone for hours, but the panic doesn't pass
Try to speak
But everyone around me just looks at me like I'm speaking in tongues
Think I'm dreaming 'til I notice I'm awake
Now I'm all alone screaming at the top of my lungs
The world is sinking fast
Gotta find a way right out of here
Darkness drops again
I can feel the water drawing near
In a dream, I'm suddenly aware
I'm standing on a tightwire high up in the air
Shaking legs just long for solid ground
I am tired, I am frightened, but I can't help looking down
She's a silhouette, skinny shadow climbing up the wall
Covering my eyes 'til it's dark and I can't see at all
I look out on the city late at night
Buildings come together in a glowing pool of light
Embers from a long-forgotten flame
Turn my eyes to heaven, but it just don't look the same
It just don't look the same, no
It just don't look the same
It just don't look the same, no
It just don't
