I keep on walking on a wire
Listening on white noise
Hold my breath underwater
while I try not to burn
Until you, who I knew
was nothing but trouble
And yet I, who lived a lie
realized that all this time
I was beautiful, was strong
A brilliant mind under it all
I am kind, I am free
to be who I want to be
Because of you
and how you make me feel
like there’s was something more
than carrying on with life
And just getting by
day by day
and enduring
night after night
So thank you for loving me
when I spent my life giving
what I didn’t think I could
get back in return
Now the wire feels like the earth
The white noise is your voice
I can let go and breathe
And the burn feels so good
