I'm on the tightrope, you've got your reasons

When did it get so hard to breathe?

Hide in the spotlight, I'm feelin' so tired

Your hands are burnt from holdin' me

And maybe you and I will fall in time

Eventually

Maybe we'll both die trying

But I can't bring myself to leave

Cause I've looked

[Chorus]

And I ain't seen nothin' like you

The way you light up every room tonight

So easily

And I have moved mountains, babe

Just a stumble and too long a grace

And I, I still can't compete

You're on the tightrope, I've got my reasons

How did we get so tangled?

You turn, I stay straight, I bend and you break

We're so messed up but I know

That you and I will fall in time, eventually

Or maybe we'll both die trying

[Chorus]

Oh you and I will fall in time eventually

Or maybe we'll both die trying

[Chorus]
