4 Door Theatre
Tightrope
[Verse 1]
And I'm walkin' on edge
I'm holdin' my head up
And I don't know why
I'm steppin' out on a wire
I'm waiting for you
When I'm wasted in rooms
And I don't know why
I cut my teeth on a tire
So I'll call you when I grow up
I've been caught in the cusp of conversation, gone to bust
And I don't know why
You wanna talk tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
So breathe in and I'll show myself

[Chorus]
Out now, where do I go?
I'm walkin' on a tightrope, takin' my time though
Oh no, look at you go
You're tickin' like a timebomb, takin' the high road
Swing too low for you to follow
Hands in my pockets, stains on my clothes
Oh, wherever I go
I'm walkin' on a tightrope, tightrope
[Post-Chorus]
I'm walkin' on a tightrope
Now I'm walkin' on a tightrope

[Verse 2]
A pill away
And a heartbeat apart
And you're always tired
Of telling truth, you a liar
Tell me how I grow up
I've been lost in the lust of imitation, turn to dust
We keep passing by
We're just wasting time

[Pre-Chorus]
So breathe in and I'll show myself

[Chorus]
Out now, where do I go?
I'm walkin' on a tightrope, takin' my time though
Oh no, look at you go
You're tickin' like a timebomb, takin' the high road
Swing too low for you to follow
Hands in my pockets, stains on my clothes
Oh, wherever I go
I'm walkin' on a tightrope, tightrope
[Post-Chorus]
I'm walkin' on a tightrope
Now I'm walkin' on a tightrope

[Bridge]
Oh, as I'm walking alone (As I'm walking alone)
You're letting me go
Out on my own (Out on my own)

[Chorus]
Out now, where do I go?
I'm walkin' on a tightrope, takin' my time though
Oh no, look at you go
You're tickin' like a timebomb, takin' the high road
Swing too low for you to follow
Hands in my pockets, stains on my clothes
Oh, wherever I go
I'm walkin' on a tightrope, tightrope
I'm walkin' on a tightrope
Now I'm walkin' on a tightrope
