This Time Around

Walking a tightrope Strapped between two vertical mountainsides And they both guarantee salvation down the line But have I got the strength to climb or walk on This time? Dancing out of fear Just as if standing still would kill me Instead of grasping at air I'll be working my way down Or can I go around and change the paradigm This time? Waging war with every battle lost Wages of sin, blinded by losses You can't take it out on me Not this time You can't take it out on me This time around
