Dancing on a Tightrope
[Verse 1]
You carry yourself, like the lines in your pocket
But you lack the simple courage
To move out of your parents' house, I'm calling you out
You seem so sure without a back-up plan
But I pierce the skin, here we are
Holding up your outer shell with both hands
[Pre-Chorus]
You're stuck on the path you built yourself to self-destruct
You never stop
[Chorus]
I can't help it, I won't let you bury yourself, bury yourself
I can't help it, I won't let you bury yourself, bury yourself
[Verse 2]
It'll all come back to you, all that you can't pretend
'Cause life has a way of equaling itself out at both ends
I'll say it again
You seem so sure without a back-up plan
And you disappear and here we are
Counting down the days that you're going on both hands
[Pre-Chorus]
You're stuck on the path you built yourself to self-destruct
You never stop
[Chorus]
I can't help it, I won't let you bury yourself, bury yourself
I can't help it, I won't let you bury yourself, bury yourself
Bury yourself, bury yourself
[Breakdown]
I can't help it, I won't let you bury yourself, bury yourself
I can't help it, I won't let you bury yourself, bury yourself
[Outro]
I know you're desperate to find
Someone to ease that flurried mind
When nobody's listening
Just know I'll be there for you still
I've got your back, you know I will
No, I'll never let you bury yourself, bury yourself
Bury yourself, bury yourself
