I'm up on the tightwire
One side's ice and one is fire
It's a circus game with you and me
I'm up on the tightrope
One side's hate and one is hope
But the top hat on my head is all you see

And the wire seems to be the only place for me
A comedy of errors and I'm falling

Like a rubber-neck giraffe
You look into my past
Well, maybe you're just too blind to see
I'm up on the spotlight
Oh, does it feel right
Oh, the altitude seems to get to me

I'm up on the tightwire
Flanked by lifе and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see

Likе a rubber-neck giraffe
You look into my past
Well, maybe you're just too blind to see
I'm up on the spotlight
Oh, does it feel right
Oh, the altitude really gets to me
I'm up on the tightwire
Flanked by life and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see
