Highwire
Navigating Life's Tightrope: Struggles and Sacrifices in 'Highwire'
Lyrics
My head wouldn't give a second thought
My mind wouldn't hesitate to instruct or guide me
About telling me what to do
It wouldn't hesitate to tell me what actions to take
My feet wouldn't give another inch
My resolve wouldn't yield even an additional small measurement
If they were giving it up to you
If it meant surrendering to your demands
I'm on the highwire, yelling burn fire
I'm in a precarious situation, expressing urgency or distress
My heart wouldn't have another chance
My emotional core wouldn't offer another opportunity
After all that I've been through
Considering everything I've experienced
My hands wouldn't give enough away
My actions wouldn't reveal more than they already have
I've given it all to you
I've given everything I have to offer to you
I'm on the highwire, yelling burn fire
I'm in a precarious situation, expressing urgency or distress
My heart is in a shroud, sun goes up and down
My emotions are deeply concealed, experiencing fluctuations like the cycle of day and night
I've been here all afternoon
I've been present in this state for the entire afternoon
My head is in the clouds, faith goes up and down
My thoughts are lofty and uncertain, my belief system fluctuates
I could use a talking to:about you, about you
I need to have a conversation, specifically about you
Oh baby give me one more chance
Requesting another opportunity, particularly in a romantic context
My soul wouldn't give another year
My inner being wouldn't endure for an additional year
I'm almost thirty-two
As I am nearing the age of thirty-two
My eyes wouldn't give another tear
My eyes wouldn't shed any more tears
I've given them all to you
I've already cried them all for you
And I'm on the highwire, yelling burn fire
I'm in a precarious situation, expressing urgency or distress
My heart is in a shroud, sun goes up and down
My emotions are deeply concealed, experiencing fluctuations like the cycle of day and night
I've been sleeping way past noon
I've been sleeping excessively, well beyond noon
My head is in the clouds, faith goes up and down
My thoughts are lofty and uncertain, my belief system fluctuates
I could use a talking to:about you, about you
I need to have a conversation, specifically about you
