Lyrics
I feel it beneath my skin
I sense a troubling feeling beneath my skin.
beneath my very soul it's just like I cannot win
It feels like I'm constantly losing in the depths of my soul.
my eyes seek to criticize
My eyes tend to be critical.
they seem to overlook those times that I told you all these lies
I overlook or ignore the times I've lied to you.
this place seems to medicate
This place seems to provide relief or escape.
this tightened rope inside confines my actions to the circus
A metaphorical tightened rope restricts my actions, confining me to a circus-like situation.
I hear deep inside my mind
I hear troubling thoughts deep within my mind.
buried deep within my spirit I cannot hide
Something buried within my spirit is hard to conceal.
my voice speaks a bitter word
My voice expresses bitter words.
lost to my own preconceptions a voice you've never heard
Lost to my own preconceptions, my true voice remains unheard.
this place seems to medicate
This place seems to offer solace or numbness.
this tightened rope inside confines my actions to the circus
The metaphorical tightened rope continues to limit my actions to a circus-like environment.
nightmares seem to threaten me
Nightmares threaten me.
the final act you'll never know
The final act or resolution remains unknown.
we balance on the tight rope
We navigate a precarious situation, balancing on the tightrope.
I walk the line between spaces where you're heart and voice collide
I exist in the delicate space where your heart and voice collide.
I walk the line between the peaks and cracks where you hide all you lies
I exist in the thin line between the peaks and cracks where you conceal your lies.
I am inside I am inside
I am present, deeply immersed in the situation.
this place seems to medicate
This place continues to provide relief or numbness.
this tightened rope inside confines my actions to the circus
The metaphorical tightened rope still confines my actions to a circus-like setting.
nightmares seem to threaten me
Nightmares persist as a threat.
the final act you'll never know
The final resolution or revelation remains undisclosed.
we balance on the tight rope
We are in a constant state of balance on the tightrope of life.
