La Funambuliste
Dancing on Life's Edge: Embracing Change and Letting Go
Lyrics
Proceed with caution as I go
Proceeding cautiously in my journey
Reluctantly I'll have you know
Reluctantly sharing information
Unwilling to give up on hope
Unwilling to abandon hope
I cling to my tightrope
Holding onto my metaphorical tightrope
Until it feels like home
Continuing until it becomes familiar or comfortable
You see me swaying to and fro
Swaying back and forth, possibly metaphorical instability
No hands to catch me down below
No external support or safety net
I only ever feel alone
Feeling alone despite external appearances
If I truly love you so
Love may lead to loneliness
Then I should let you go
Considering letting go for the sake of love
Long for travelling light
Desire for a light and unburdened life
Shed the doubts that sit on my mind
Removing doubts that weigh on the mind
Can't let go if I tried
Difficulty in letting go despite attempts
Better stubborn than proud
Choosing stubbornness over pride
What if I never feel how it feels
Uncertainty about experiencing certain emotions
With my head in the clouds
Being in a dreamy or idealistic state
I'll never get there if I'm scared of falling down
Fear of failure hindering progress
With both feet on the ground
Being grounded while striving for dreams
So step by step I make my way
Taking incremental steps despite challenges
While only wild winds prevail
Enduring difficulties with determination
Forgive I guess but can't forget
Forgiving past actions but unable to forget
The way I gave my best
Reflecting on giving the best effort
And lost you nonetheless
Experiencing loss despite efforts
Now I've got nothing left to lose
Reaching a point of having nothing left to lose
There's only one path left to choose
Only one path remains, a choice to be made
The one that leads away from you
Choosing a path leading away from a person
Through blizzards of bad news
Navigating through a storm of negative information
With only me in view
Focusing on oneself amidst challenges
Long for travelling light
Desiring a light and unburdened life (repeated)
Shed the doubts that sit on my mind
Continuing to shed doubts on the mind (repeated)
Can't let go if I tried
Difficulty in letting go despite attempts (repeated)
Better stubborn than proud
Choosing stubbornness over pride (repeated)
What if I never feel how it feels
Uncertainty about experiencing certain emotions (repeated)
With my head in the clouds
Being in a dreamy or idealistic state (repeated)
I'll never get there if I'm scared of falling down
Fear of failure hindering progress (repeated)
With both feet on the ground
Being grounded while striving for dreams (repeated)
