Текст Young the Giant — Tightrope

When I was just a boy
My momma told me, «Son
You look so serious»
(Smile and have some fun)
When I was 17
My father let me know
«Life isn’t fun and games»
(Gotta sell your soul)

I don’t know how I ended up
So close to where I started
I went to war for peace of mind
What was it for?

I’m dancing on a tightrope
No time to mess around, oh
Just trying to let my mind go
I’m never coming dow-ow-own

I found a preacher man
To help me understand
What we are doing here
(What comes after life)
And now the years have passed
Been to the moon and back
And all I’ve realized
(No one knows but me)

I don’t (he don’t) know how (know how) I ended up
So close to where I started
I went (he went) to war (to war) for peace of mind
What was it for?

I’m dancing on a tightrope
No time to mess around, oh
Just trying to let my mind go
I’m never coming dow-ow-own
I’m never coming dow-own
I’m never coming dow-ow-own

Teachers always say, «Stay in between the lines»
«Promise you’ll be quiet if you can’t say something nice»
Doctors always say, «Take these pills for your health»
But now I can’t remember how to think for myself

I’m dancing on a tightrope
No time to mess around, oh
Just trying to let my mind go, ha
I’m never coming dow-ow-own
I’m never coming dow-own
I’m never coming down (-ow-own)
