Lyrics
Walking By A Wire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I could not breath against the wall
The clash of light against the floor
They held me up against the wall
Too young to be ignored
Standing by a building
Leaks out information
Passive death of freedom gets me
Where's my security
Behind my back it goes
Early morning's coming
The risk that I am taking
Recall a song that I heard as a child
No more false immunity
Inside the blistering cold
My youth unknown to me
I'm walking by a wire
What's left from me to breathe
Cold smell of fire
One day I will be free
I was born to be no one
My youth unknown to me
I walked behind the sun
Emptiness within me
Exit signs within me
The one you're looking for is not here
Had no security
He will not come back
