Letra de Tightrope

When I was just a boy My momma told me Son, you look so serious (Smile and have some fun) When I was seventeen 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 But what’s it for? I’m dancing on a tightrope No time to mess around Just trying to let my mind go I’m never coming down 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 know how I ended up So close to where I started I went to war for peace of mind But what’s it for? I’m dancing on a tightrope No time to mess around Just trying to let my mind go I’m never coming down I’m never coming down I’m never coming down Teachers always say stay in between the lines Momma said: 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 Just trying to let my mind go I’m never coming down I'm never coming down I'm never coming down
