Tightrope

I was like, "What you want me to do?" She was like, "What, you want me to choose?" I was like, "Well I didn't say that, but you know, help me help you" I'm on that balance beam to keep you happy Or say fuck it, stay mad at me You know how that goes, drink, fight, patch things up in the back of a taxi She can skate thin ice on wheels And not once get wet She could walk fine lines in heels Not one foot out of step And I swear, I'll leave you swept Off your feet, it's just I guess I'm falling hard myself here Yeah, over my head

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And every step could be the one where I fall It's like I'm running with a blindfold And I could be wrong But I don't know I don't know

Headed for the deep end Thursday we fight and forget it by the weekend Fast learner, I figured out quick With her it's not the gettin', it's the keepin' Cause she's a gem So everyone wants her shinin' with them Gettin' my bulldog on bro, mind your step Keep it on your side of the fence I play my demo's, one last once Smile if she likes it, laugh if it sucks Cold blooded, she the first in my corner But now, what's that if it ain't called love? When it's all said and done Baby ain't happy till my heads spun So I might get lucky, I might get none Like I'm right back at square one

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And every step could be the one where I fall It's like I'm running with a blindfold And I can't help but feel that I'm about to lose control It's like I'm walking on a tightrope Running with a blindfold Rolling with my eyes closed It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And I could be wrong But I don't know I don't know

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And every step could be the one where I fall It's like I'm running with a blindfold And I can't help but feel that I'm about to lose control It's like I'm walking on a tightrope Running with a blindfold Rolling with my eyes closed It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And I could be wrong I could be wrong

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And every step could be the one where I fall It's like I'm running with a blindfold And I can't help but feel that I'm about to lose control It's like I'm walking on a tightrope Running with a blindfold Rolling with my eyes closed It's like I'm walking on a tightrope And I could be wrong But I don't know I don't know
