Still A Tightrope Walk

I can see they're after me, but they can't keep up with my stride

Though the road is narrowing, heights are harrowing, it's my ride

And death

Divorce and debt

The doctor bills kill

Chasing all those cheap thrills

Ah, transcend hate

The rent that's late

The state, it don't seem right

Why we living this tightrope life?

It's a tightrope walk

Not looking at the long drop

Still a tightrope walk

Walk

It's a tightrope walk

Not looking at the long drop

Phone rings but I'm not listening

By now, I'm numb to stress

Just heard my friend's last breath

White drug death

Escape in bliss

Risk, chasing that dragon's kiss

Ah, the lash

The flag half-mast

I'm choking ash past

Miles of broken glass

It's a tightrope walk

Tightrope walk

It's a tightrope walk

Not looking at the long drop

Still a tightrope walk

Looking at the long drop

It's a tightrope walk

Not looking at the long drop
