Curtains you made let the sun rays shine right through But you're never gonna fix a thing They only shine on you, living our fairy tales we see on TV And I'm singing all your lullabies from memory 'Cause I'm under fire and I'm burning down slow I'm walking on a wire, won't you let me go? I've listened to the mothers and fathers and lovers too Can't help but see the good in you slip right on through All the while I've been fishing for a second chance But we're never gonna make it out alive on romance 'Cause I'm under fire and I'm burning down slow I'm walking on a wire, won't you let me go? 'Cause I'm under fire and I'm burning down slow I'm walking on a wire, won't you let me go? 'Cause I'm under fire and I'm burning down slow I'm walking on a wire, won't you let me go?
