Vertigo

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
want to 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 arms
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 ferris wheel lights
might cause me to sway
but I am teaching myself to be brave
and I may 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
