Tightrope

RYAN ADAMS · Prisoner 2017 · Track 11 of 12

Strong winds and my head's on fire Walk another day across the high wire

I'm on a tightrope, watch it as it swings Like a countdown ticker on New Year's Eve

We run the numbers spinning in the side Counting all the reasons that we're broken and we lied I'm on a tightrope, watching isn't easy Heating up the metal, putting pressure on the springs

All I want is for you to make me smile All I want is for you to drive me wild

Pretty candles on a birthday cake Covered in confetti with the caffeine shakes Fuck all the money, everything is trash Papers in the glove box, light it up and pass Flip on the tube, we watch it 'til we sleep Ain't nothing but static and the panic and the feeling manic

I'm on a tightrope, watch it as it swings Like a countdown ticker on New Year's Eve

And all I want is for you to make me smile All I want is for you to drive me wild All I want is for you to make me smile All I want is for you to drive me wild Wild

All I want is for you to make me smile All I want is for you to drive me wild
