Highwire Days

You feel safer in the light
I want to go out at night
Though I’m walking in the shadows
I know what you won’t find
I’ve seen it in your mind
I scream but nothing matters

In highwire days
Did I meet you in the marketplace
Highwire days
Now you’re older

All the people stand in line
I missed you everytime
Though I found an imitation
I remember way before
How could I feel secure
Now I’m lost without your A-crowd

In highwire days
Did I meet you in the marketplace
Highwire days
Now you’re older

This time tomorrow
All the names will change
But your face still remains
I’m getting lost insidе
A world apart
From those who feel the blame
Looking round at all thе sights
Who’ll calmly brave the night
Who’s standing in the doorway
Getting wasted with your lies
The love that money buys
You’ll walk another endless mile

In highwire days
Did I meet you in the marketplace
Highwire days
Now the world’s a cold and lonely place
Highwire days
Now you’re older
So much older
Yeah you’re older
