Tightrope Lyrics by ANSON

a note for you to find...

2020

I walk on a tightrope praying for an ending
I can’t keep pretending I’m fine
Cause shadows cast over me like a Wednesday and none of my Wednesday’s feel right

So tell me how long, how long should I wait here?
So tell me how long, how long till I break?

Cause I can feel a weakening in my knees
I’m setting like the tide falling into the shore
And all of my secrets that you keep
It doesn’t make sense anymore

I’m out here on the weekends
Maybe we can be friends
We share the nights till the break of dawn
We dance until the lines blur
Lighters and tracers
The ring in my ears got me begging for more

So tell me how long, how long should I wait here?
So tell me how long, how long till I break?

Cause I can feel a weakening in my knees
I’m setting like the tide falling into the shore
And all of my secrets that you keep
It doesn’t make sense anymore

And I’m singing out ah
No I don’t know, no I don’t know

Cause I can feel a weakening in my knees
I’m setting like the tide falling into the shore
And all of my secrets that you keep
It doesn’t make sense anymore

Cause I can feel a weakening in my knees
I’m setting like the tide falling into the shore
And all of my secrets that you keep
It doesn’t make sense anymore

(I’m out here on the weekends
Maybe we can be friends
We share the nights till the break of dawn
We dance until the lines blur
Lighters and tracers
The ring in my ears got me begging for more)

So how long? How long?
