On the Tightrope
Teeter totter
bottle of liquor
swing, swing
one simple thing
one simple choice
"Goodnight babe
I know it's late
I'm sorry I've been busy.
We'll talk in the morning"
Mourning
Play on words
out of being bored
He stepped onto the rope
step by step
a balacing trick
"I'm always safe."
Please don't say that
just come down
get off those clouds
boy
You were hardly a man
20 years old
Degree some days to go
took a step
lost your balance
for a few clinks
a good time
you were bored
you put on a show
became a clown
in your life
on your car
you lost track
my heart lost its beat
it was done
you had your dreams
we had our plans
you were changing
one choice
you took a chance
in a blink
you were gone
i was left to move along
left stunned
i go on
slowly i've grown
tried to stay strong
though sometimes I stall
your memory
pushes me forward
To let them all know
of all this pain
other's choices can bring...
