Kali Fawkes - Tightrope Lyrics

Lyrics Tightrope - Kali Fawkes



I'm walkin on a tightrope
With my hands up in the air
(Hands in the air)
They told me
When you grow up girl
Ain't nothin gonna be fair (nothing's fair)
I'm hoping' there's a net below
It's a long (long) way to fall
Nobody got the answers, child
So remember that when you call
(Remember when you call)
Balancing my emotions
With perceptions
In my head
Tryna silence the
Inner critic, man
The answer isn't death
Sorting' through injustice
And feelings of dread
Comin' to terms
With the lessons
And the tears that I shed
So dark in my mind
Did I fucking burnout
The light?
Did I really make
The right decisions?
Was I living in spite?
Have I lost my way
And worse
Did I kill my sight?
I think it might be time
For another re-write
Thought I was ready
Saw the precipice
I jumped
Faith was my parachute
But now I feel sunk
Stayed too long
And it left me stuck
So many subconscious patterns
That I gotta disrupt
Nowhere to turn
All the answers abide
Sortin' through the mess
In my jaded mind
Try to call on my mother
But she's barely alive
Got lost in the sauce
While I was lost in the grind
I'm walkin on a tightrope
With my hands up in the air
(Hands in the air)
They told me
When you grow up girl
Ain't nothin gonna be fair (nothing's fair)
I'm hoping' there's a net below
It's a long (long) way to fall
Nobody got the answers, child
So remember that when you call
(Remember when you call)
I'm walkin on a tightrope
With my hands up in the air
(Hands in the air)
They told me
When you grow up girl
Ain't nothin gonna be fair (nothing's fair)
I'm hoping' there's a net below
It's a long (long) way to fall
Nobody got the answers, child
So remember that when you call
(Remember when you call)
