Wireline

There's a man on a wire line struggling to survive

While I'm sittin' here in traffic tryin' to figure out just why

I've had three drinks before my work day

Two drinks while I was on this drive

And I'm thinking to myself, we're not that different you and I

I hear um talking on the radio trying to figure out just why

Any man would be caught walking unprotected in the ski

Some will call it circus acts, some people call it suicide

And I'm thinking to myself, we're not that different you and I

'Cause there's a lot of room below us, a lot of space to fall

If you're low down now, wait till you loss it all

This city's tryin' to be the death of me

Someone told me once, the pavements thirsty

And if I make it out alive

I think the country's where I'll thrive

Take my watch, take my arms, take my family

As I find the space to move

I drive north across the bridge

Hoping that you're safe upon the other side

Strangely I find your fate tied to mine

'Cause there's a lot of room below us, a lot of space to fall

If you're low down now, wait till you loss it all

There's a blame for every season, cards to every call

If you're lowdown now, wait till you try and crawl
