Balanced on a wire
High above the earth tonight
Looking for an answer
Finding that warning sign
Slowly falling
Into my emotions
Drowning in an ocean
And I can't find you
Balanced on a wire
High above the earth tonight
Now I'm hanging by a thread
But I never felt so alive
And to the very last minute
We will always be death defying
Caught in the act of flying solo
This acrobat is lost
And I don’t know
Where I’ll land
As I reach for your hand
All of the lights can be so blinding
Every time I jump you always find me
Without a net
So please don’t forget
Cause right now I'm out of control
Swear you’re never gonna let go
Tell me not to look down
Promise that you’re gonna stay
Spinning like a top now
Feeling like I'm gonna break
Into nothing
Tell me that there’s still hope
Back up on the tightrope
Faster and faster
Balanced on a wire
High above the earth tonight
And it doesn’t make sense
How me and you still survive
To the very last minute
We will always be death defying
Caught in the act of flying solo
This acrobat is lost
And I don’t know
Where I’ll land
As I reach for your hand
All of the lights can be so blinding
But every time I jump you always find me
Without a net
So please don’t forget
Cause right now I'm out of control
Swear you’re never gonna let go
Now I'm hanging by a thread
But I never felt so alive
To the very last minute
We will always be death defying
Caught in the act of flying solo
This acrobat is lost
And I don’t know
Where I’ll land
As I reach for your hand
All of the lights can be so blinding
But every time I jump you always find me
Without a net
So please don’t forget
Cause right now I'm out of control
Swear you’re never gonna let go
Cause right now I'm out of control
Swear you’re never gonna let go
