Tightrope
I live a heavy lie
With every footstep feel the pounds
I slip into the now
My feet are dragging
Eyes cast down
Then I lift my gaze and look around
My knees are buckling
I'm scared I'll hit the ground
Coz' I'm under blinding lights
Feeling like a prize
Standing there in white everyday
Hunting for your eyes
Acting do or die
Faces passing by in my play
I'm on a tightrope high in the sky
Oh yeah
Nothing to catch me but your eyes
Oh so take me in
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Ohhh, ohhh
I built this heavy life
And every choice has brought me here
Now I'm falling from the clouds
When I took flight
Forgot to steer
So I chase this lesson every day
I'd rather feel alive
In an adolescent phase
Coz' I'm under blinding lights
Feeling like a prize
Standing there in white everyday
Hunting for your eyes
Acting do or die
Faces passing by in my play
I'm on a tightrope high in the sky
Oh yeah
Nothing to catch me but your eyes
Makes me feel alive
I'm spotlight shy
The tingle of fear
Makes me wanna cry
Walking in the light
Balancing here
Make it melt away
I want you to stay
Here with me
Make it disappear, disappear
I beat this heavy life
You took me in we built a home
You taught me how to hold
A future where I'm not alone
Coz' I'm under blinding lights
Feeling like a prize
Standing there in white everyday
Hunting for your eyes
Acting do or die
Faces passing by in my play
I'm on a tightrope high in the sky
Oh yeah
Nothing to catch me but your eyes
So take me in
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
So take me in
Oh yeah
Yeah
With every footstep feel the pounds
I slip into the now
My feet are dragging
Eyes cast down
Then I lift my gaze and look around
My knees are buckling
I'm scared I'll hit the ground
Coz' I'm under blinding lights
Feeling like a prize
Standing there in white everyday
Hunting for your eyes
Acting do or die
Faces passing by in my play
I'm on a tightrope high in the sky
Oh yeah
Nothing to catch me but your eyes
Oh so take me in
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Ohhh, ohhh
I built this heavy life
And every choice has brought me here
Now I'm falling from the clouds
When I took flight
Forgot to steer
So I chase this lesson every day
I'd rather feel alive
In an adolescent phase
Coz' I'm under blinding lights
Feeling like a prize
Standing there in white everyday
Hunting for your eyes
Acting do or die
Faces passing by in my play
I'm on a tightrope high in the sky
Oh yeah

So take me in
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
So take me in
Oh yeah
Yeah
