The Wire (feat. Ruby Frost)

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Easy, what you want

Could be another thing, it is a power of its own

Easy, with what you've got

One minute it is here and in another it is gone, oh

And higher and higher, I'm going on a limb

The wire, the wire is growing very thin

And you can call it, but I'm never gonna wanna leave

The wire, the wire, though it's giving up on me

It's time to knuckle down

No time to run around

Acting crazy, it's real

Nothing Fugazi until I'm Swayze in ghost

I'm trying fangs, they see fucking crazy the most

As kiwi kids, it ain't in our nature to boast

So we be playing fangs down, we be making jokes

In case we choke, rather make out like we didn't try

Then bare the shame that we built a plan that didn't fly

Living lies man, if only we could live a little

The end might not be great but it was good in the middle

You may get chastised but the work you did outlives you

And if it didn't, from the high, know that ya'll forgiven

Man, ain't nobody forbid you from this first step

On a high wire, it could be your worst yet

It could be your best

I walked on it once or twice, thought I stumbled to my death

Thought I feel it getting thinner, I'm still standing on the edge

Easy, what you want

Could be another thing, it is a power of its own

Easy, with what you've got

One minute it is here and in another it is gone, oh

And higher and higher, I'm going on a limb

The wire, the wire is growing very thin

And you can call it, but I'm never gonna wanna leave

The wire, the wire, though it's giving up on me

Yeah, attracted to this life or the facade of it

Ain't what it seems, still I wanna be a part of it

I carry some scars from it, you never know if you could

Carry a film if you've never been a star of it

Put a couple lodge on it, going for the Oscar now

Thought I'd be happy with the Emmy's and you got it wrong

I had to leave 'em behind although we got along

Guess the trains leaving today, you're either off or on

Don't know if I got it wrong, I live with it though

Play some good defense and stick with it though

Best shape of my life, I'm sick with it though

Ain't up on the main stage, I bought tickets though

And I kinda quit the show

Though I know it's such a long way down but such a long way now

That I forgotten who I used to be

Now doing this is the only thing that's true to me
