Young The Giant - Tightrope Lyrics
Official




When I was just a boy
My momma told me, "Son You look so serious"
(Smile and have some fun)
When I was seventeen
My father let me know
"Life isn't fun and games
Gotta sell your soul!"

I don't know how I ended up
So close to where I started
I went to war for peace of mind
But what's it for?

I'm dancing on a tightrope
No time to mess around
Just trying to let my mind go
I'm never coming down

I found a preacher man
To help me understand
What we are doing here (What comes after life)
And now the years have passed
Been to the moon and back
And all I've realized (No one knows but me)

I don't know how I ended up
So close to where I started
I went to war for peace of mind
But what's it for?

I'm dancing on a tightrope
No time to mess around
Just trying to let my mind go
I'm never coming down
I'm never coming down
I'm never coming down

Teachers always say stay in between the lines
Momma said be quiet if you can't say something nice
Doctors always say take these pills for your health
But now I can't remember how to think for myself

I'm dancing on a tightrope
No time to mess around
Just trying to let my mind go
I'm never coming down

I'm never coming down
I'm never coming down
