Body was freezing
It was a surprise
The moment I looked
Straight in your eyes

Iron was melting
Fire burned
Reaching the point of no
Of no return

Blood in my veins
Stopped for a while
A way to the moon
Seemed just a mile

That was the first time
I know of in my life
The first time on high wire
The first time I walked a line

There's not much light
But I see cold and bright
My skin came alive
Electrified

This will not change me
But things will not be the same
And now, that I’ve held you
I still cannot say your name
Blood in my veins
Stopped for a while
A way to the moon
Seemed just a mile

That was the first time
In my life
Oh, when I touched a
Knife
