Stuck out on this tightrope
Spanning the widest canyon of all
You are pulling on both sides
'til I lose my balance and fall
As I dive through the air
Suddenly I don't care
'Cause I'm free from the trap up there
So I wait and I wait
For something to change
But I think now it's too late
All that I want
Is for all of this to stop
Climbing up the highest cliffs
Attempting to break free
I look up in horror
To see you drop a boulder at me
As it dives through the air
Suddenly I don't care
Never wanted to be up there
So I wait and I wait
For something to change
But I think now it's too late
All that I want
Is for all of this to stop
You hit me and hurt me
And stop now and then
But I always fuck up
And you do it again
All that I want
Is for all of this to stop
All that I want
Is for all of this to stop
