You've been in the backseat
Hiding in the underground
Tripping through the daydreams
Every little word without a sound
Telling all your secrets
To anyone who'll look you in the eyes
Suitcase full of regrets

But I'm not saying, oh I'm not saying it's over yet
I won't, I won't wait a minute more
Tightrope tied up to a southern shore
Don't blink, don't wait a second more
You're walking a tightrope
Walking a tightrope

Dancing on a thin line
Just a redhead girl from the Upper East Side
Well your mom never told you
It don't come easy in this life
Throw a penny in a wishing well
You drown your sorrows here tonight
You're tired of running from yourself

But I'm not saying, oh I'm not saying it's over yet
I won't, I won't wait a minute more
Tightrope tied up to a southern shore
Don't blink, don't wait a second more
You're walking a tightrope
Walking a tightrope

I won't go easy, no I won't
I won't go easy, no I won't
I won't go easy, no I won't

I won't go easy, no I won't
I won't go easy, no I won't
I won't go easy, no I won't

I won't go easy, no I won't
I won't go easy, no I won't
I won't go easy, no I won't

I won't, I won't wait a minute more
Tightrope tied up to a southern shore
Don't blink, don't wait a second more
You're walking a tightrope
Walking a tightrope
