Lyrics

You're on a highwire
And I'm climbing out
And i feel the danger
As I steal a kiss from your mouth

And I will try to hold steady
Wanna make you believe
That the height of this tightrope
Is just second nature to me

But I will break all my bones
'Cause I lied about the vertigo
And I have never been up this high
There'll be no safety net

When I fall right our of the sky
There will be no ambulance waiting
And I have no wings to fly

So we will meet on the borders
Barefoot and blessed
In colorful graveyards
With flower bouquets for the dead

And I don't ask you to promise
That I will not come to harm
But when the wind tugs my courage
Will you be my brother in arm?

Cause I will break all my bones
'Cause I lied about the vertigo
And I have never been up this high
There'll be no safety net

When I fall right our of the sky
There will be no ambulance waiting
And I have no wings to fly

Oh the view from this height
High above the ferriswheel lights
Might cause me to sway
But I am teaching myself to be brave

Cause I will break all my bones
'Cause I lied about the vertigo
And I have never been up this high
There'll be no safety net

When I fall right our of the sky
There will be no ambulance waiting
And I have no wings to fly
