If I were a crow, I wouldn't have no fear of heights
|
For watching this old world's fragile below
|
I don't have a net, don't have no jet wings, I can't fly
|
If I miss a step, yeah, that's how I'd go
|
|
Oh, the wire keeps getting higher, keeps getting higher
|
I ain't looking down no more
|
On the wire, I don't know why
|
Tell me what I'm up here for
|
|
If I was a king, somebody would take the risk for me
|
I'll just sit and watch them walk the line
|
But if my night burns out like a match in gasoline
|
If I take the fall, well, it's all mine
|
|
Oh, the wire keeps getting higher, keeps getting higher
|
I ain't looking down no more
|
Up on the wire, I don't know why
|
Tell me what I'm up here for
|
|
Oh, the wire keeps getting higher, keeps getting higher
|
I ain't looking down no more
|
On the wire, I don't know why
|
Tell me what I'm up here for
|
|
Higher, on the wire
|
Tell me what I'm up here for
|
I'm on the wire, on the wire
|
I ain't looking down no more
|
