Highwire Days

Heavy steps And a late night feeling I just can't let it go People will never know what I'm thinking Cigarettes and all the weekday drinking Cover up what we lost Now I don't know the cost of smiling, no I watch the strangers as they walk by From twenty stories high Reset my rhythm to the blue sky Just know It's got me walking a tightrope, yeah Hanging on every word you said Can I fly and not fall instead? Living highwire days Far away I can see the ground Rushing down in a silent sound Staring up at the soft white clouds Living highwire days Highwire days Endless ways And the road not taken Though the dreaming is gone I can still sing a song about feeling low I watch the strangers as they ask why I'm twenty stories high Just a silhouette on a blue sky Just know It's got me walking a tightrope, yeah Hanging on every word you said Can I fly and not fall instead? Living highwire days Far away I can see the ground Rushing down in a silent sound Staring up at the soft white clouds Living highwire days Highwire days Highwire days Highwire days
