Fallin', fallin' off the high wire
Fallin', I don't wanna die
Fire escapes, cats howlin' at me
Got no father
Just frustration
Uptown party girls, Cadillac cars
How do you get it
Ain't no rock star
Fallin', fallin' off the high wire
Fallin', I don't wanna die
Starin' in the stores
Can't buy nothin'
Stumblin' by the doors
Nobody says "Hey man come in"
So I rip off somethin'
It's my profession
Put me in a rocket somewhere
I've learned my lesson
Fallin', fallin' off the high wire
Fallin', I don't wanna die
Got to get off the street
Can't die , ain't my turn now
People lookin' for me
Can't hide uptown
Mother take me back to where you found me
Just can't stand the garbage
It's crazy 'round me
Fallin', fallin' off the high wire
Fallin', I don't wanna die
