"High Wire Escape Artist" lyrics

"High Wire Escape Artist"

Bleed out all empathy
This vessel has no spirit left
to hold on
to lies I've lived in full

How long can I hold tight?
With every movement tension binds and denies
my true nature

Balance has shifted
warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
'Cause I am more than this idle
endless recital
for all my demons to applaud
I am free

Hide myself from it all
While every fear is screaming
night into dawn
until I find

the balance has shifted
warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
'Cause I am more than this idle
endless recital
for all my demons to applaud
I am free

I have to believe them (lies!)
In order to attain fulfillment
I have to succumb to lies!
All my inner fears that tear at me
I will never believe them (lies!)
I'm sick of the weakness that controls me
Now that I have fallen
I will not repent

Balance has shifted
warped sick and twisted
Grabbing at angels when I fall
'Cause I am more than this idle
endless recital
for all my demons to applaud
I am free
