High Wire

DOWN IN DETROIT LAST NIGHT

SOMEONE BE MOANING

FOR MY SUNDAY CHANGE

REMINDING ME OF THE CAVITIES

IN MY CHEST, A BLESSED UNREST

NO JUSTICE NO PEACE

SAYS ALL THAT IT MEANS

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

GOT A BELT UNDER MY LUNG

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

WHEN EVERYTHING’S UNDER THE GUN

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

THIS AIN’T HOW THINGS SHOULD BE DONE

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

UNDER THE BLINDING SUN

SOME WILL SAY SEE YOU SOON

WHAT IT MEANT WAS

GOODBYE FOR A WHILE

SOME CAN ONLY SEE ONE SIDE

THE MEANS BY WHICH

WE’RE TORN BY A DIVIDE

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

GOT A BELT UNDER MY LUNG

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

EVERYTHING’S UNDER THE GUN

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

THIS AIN’T HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

UNDER THE BLINDING SUN

THE PEBBLE DRIFTS WITHOUT THE DAM

I COULD FEEL WEIGHTLESS

LIKE A CHILD

IF ONLY THE YEARS AHEAD

THE YEARS AHEAD COULD BE DENIED

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

GOT A BELT UNDER MY LUNG

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

EVERYTHING’S UNDER THE GUN

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE

THIS AIN’T HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE

SURVIVAL ON THE HIGH WIRE ,

UNDER THE BLINDING SUN
