Lately, I’ve been struggling to find
The truth between the black and the white
Writ between the lines.

Grasping at the air (for some kind of meaning)
Trying to walk the line (between the thought and the feeling)
Keeping it together-trying to walk the line.

You got me walking on the highwire;
Trying to keep my balance,
Keep my heart on the finest line;
Caught up in the cross-fire,
Trying to keep together
Between the sound and the fire in my mind.
Eyes upon the prize (not the ground way down below).
Forwards never back (you got me only one way I can go).
Holding it together-trying to walk the line.

Well, these days, I find myself caught between
You know, the words that I’ve heard
And things that I think that I’ve seen.

You know, some people try (to hold their heads in the sand)
Yeah, some people try (to fly and nowhere they can land)
Keeping together-trying to talk the line.

You got me walking on the highwire;
Trying to keep my balance,
Keep my heart on the finest line;
Caught up in the cross-fire,
Trying to keep together
Between the sound and the fire in my mind.
Eyes upon the prize (not the ground way down below).
Forwards never back (you got me only one way I can go).
Holding it together-trying to walk the line.

Fear step by fear step
I make my way through this life.
With each pace I dare take
I’m falling, slow motion in mind.

Staring hypnotised (at the path not chosen)
Endless stretch away (at the time stood frozen)
Keeping it together-trying to walk the line.

You got me walking on the highwire;
Trying to keep my balance,
Keep my heart on the finest line;
Caught up in the cross-fire,
Trying to keep together
Between the sound and the fire in my mind.
Eyes upon the prize (not the ground way down below).
Forwards never back (you got me only one way I can go).
Holding it together-trying to walk the line.

You got me walking on the highwire…
