"A Life In Four Chapters" lyrics

The tightrope gets harder to grip
I try to keep my composure
It's starting to slip
We want answers where no answers exist
Our lives on the line, how can we balance it?

This cycle repeating waves cause a rift
Between our shining shores
That weight starts to shift
The lighthouse, 22 years adrift
Our lives on the line, how can we balance it?
How can we balance it?

We make perfect strangers
Who you are and who you wanna be
(Ya see) We make (We make) perfect strangers
Is it impossible for us to meet?
We make (We make) perfect strangers
One lost his way, one found his release
We make (We make) perfect strangers
And everywhere I go, I know he follows me

What I've become, a song and dance
Spit in the face of this world, it never stood a chance
What I create, so bittersweet
'Cause the pull of my people takes a toll on me

This cycle, abuses of peace
I've found the highs and the lows, I've lost my family
And life is fragile, but mine belongs to me
We got it all on the line, the lifers know what I mean

We make perfect strangers
Who you are and who you wanna be
(Ya see) We make (We make) perfect strangers
Is it impossible for us to meet?
We make (We make) perfect strangers
One lost his way, one found his release
(Ya see) We make (We make) perfect strangers
And everywhere I go, I know he follows me

That tightrope gets harder to grip
Try to keep my composure
But its starting to slip
Yeah and we want answers but they don't exist
Got our lives on the line
How can we balance it?

We are all crisis actors
Victims of our ambition
Clawing through life imprisoned
Spit in the face of this world
I know it never, it never stood a chance

Spit in the face of this world
Give peace a chance? It never stood a chance
Give peace a chance? It never stood a chance
Spit in the face of this world
Give peace a chance? It never stood a chance
Give peace a chance? It never stood a chance
Give peace a chance? It never stood a chance

Peace
