We're living in a different reality

We're toeing the same line

We give in we call it neutrality,

A joke with no punchline

The silver plated hero

Meets the golden hearted whore

The odds'll give you zero,

She'll be leaving in a few days more

Movin' on forever, maybe she don't care

Holding on together, maybe it just ain't there.

You're dancing on a high wire

You need to be so sure

There used to be a lifeline

There isn't anymore.

We are the same with no similarity,

We talk at the same time

We believe in freedom and charity

As long as I get mine

The ivory madonna is walking

Through the door

You watch her from a window,

It doesn't matter anymore

Moving on forever, maybe she don't care

Holding on together, maybe it just ain't there.

You're dancing on a high wire

You need to be so sure

There used to be a lifeline

There isn't anymore.
