Tightrope — текст песни

I could feel (I could feel)

My heart sink

I had been pushed (I had been pushed)

To the brink

Losing this conflict was all I could handle

I thought my world was ending

But it was only expanding

It wasn't the emotion I thought I'd expect

This won't happen was engrained in my head

My absence was always my escape

I wasn't in the best place (Best place)

You're owed memories, I can't restore

Not stories of wayfare and folklore

My undivided attention was served in seconds

For you I had to mend them

The best parts of me were beckoning

I swallowed my fears

I'm so grateful you're here

The last two years

Would have been unbearable

Without you there (Without you there)

I thought I bided my time too long

It turns out the timing was perfect

In the end the weight was all worth it

The brightness guided me through the fog

A constant beam of light that set my course right

I had taken on too much

(It took over me)

Longing for what I had when I was young

I had taken on too much

(My responsibilities are choking me)

Setting boundaries for myself

I'm the one who keeps walking all over them

Creating limits for abuse

I'm the one leaving myself battered and bruised

Where is my incentive (My incentive)

To find my healing?

I let misery be my motivator

I could sense myself slip into this crater

I'll only be one thing forever

I'll slide the scales back to the center

The agony and anguish were just all part of the endeavor
