Living on a wire, the sight of you could save my skin 
And the sun is in my eyes, and the breeze lifts the hair from my
neck 
So precariously I am inching my way across my life 
I could fall if you don't call 
a sick safety net appears when I'm with you 

Oh, I climb, so high waiting to fall 
And then I cry, like a child, on a neverending ride 

How does it go down, when you're the biggest kid in your own
playground 
And how do you see me, how do I fit in your hierarchy? 
Oh you tell the girls line up in single file, just gotta
rearrange my denial 
So I can play with you, and now I see, all the shit that isn't
me 
I'm too relieved to be mad, relieved and sad 

I misplaced my mind, thought it was lost 
But now I find, you were just very, very unkind 

You know I always found, that my feet were dangling looking for
solid ground 
Is it maybe worth closing down the Ivory Tower 
And coming back down to earth? 

(Chorus out)
