Tightrope

You never ask if I'm ok

The knife in my wrist will take your place

You're slipping farther away now

I'm starting to break, I can't take it

The pressure is building inside of me

The tension is taking over

I know that I'm strong enough to see

It's not about me

I cant believe a word you say

That pressure is taking over

I don't know how much I can face, with you

I don't know how much I can take

Despite all the changes you go through

The pressure is building inside of me

The tension is taking over

I know that I'm strong enough to see

It's not about me

No no no

You never asked if I'm ok

You never wanted me this way

You never asked if I'm ok

I never meant to be this way

The pressure is building inside of me

The tension is taking over

I know that I'm strong enough to see

It's not about me

I look in your eyes and you cannot hide

What I've come to open up

No words of restriction, just words of conviction

It's not about me

The pressure
