"Highwire" lyrics

"Highwire"

Hear the beating of the drum
It's how the western world was won

Sick eyes watching every poison gag
Blotting out the light source of your morning drag

You can't go wrong
When they all sing along
Hey, you up there
Why are you drawing out your high wire?

Stumbling through a darkened home
Never wondered, never known

Laughing through the mirror at your endless con
Will they rip your name down before hell and gone?
The moment when the story changed and everything went wrong

You can't quit now
I'm not so strong
You've come too far
It's too much
You're gonna leave them all
Drifting out of touch

Hear the beating of the drum
It's how the western world was won

And now you free fall forever from your high wire
Free fall forever from your high wire
Forever free fall from your high wire
Forever free fall from your high wire
Forever free fall from your high wire
