Tightrope Walker / Stranger in These Dark Times

[Intro]
Got me pacing like a tightrope walker
Always looking up at a critical moment
Fall under until we think there's a warning
I lean forward
You, on the other hand, are safe behind a wall
Looking over, watching for the drop
And all at once and that I had
You’d say that
I began my perilous climb
Over mountain sides
Over burning bridges for delight of thousands of fans miles away
And there's you looking and waiting for
A stray wind to catch
When I'm not quite ready for the balancing act
Safely waiting for the fall

[Verse 1]
Promise to call if you’re in danger
Feeling lost and found
Takes a lot to feel your feet on the ground
It's a lot of trouble when you're high likе that
Like an old flame, or a late March snow
Forcing you opеn then it pushes you closed
It takes a lot of muscle to get by like that

[Chorus]
Like a creature out of habit
I don't want to fight it

[Verse 2]
Like a stranger in these dark times
Wouldn't help a bit for stocks to rise
It takes a lot of money to get high like that
Tough guy, out of my body
Out through the window like a passing sound
You find it at the height of falling and it crawls back down

[Chorus]
Like a creature out of habit
I don't want to fight it

[Outro]
Getting lost in the heat of it all
Never wanting to remember it all
It could happen to you like it happened to me
Spent a long time calling and it wasn't received
