Letra de Tightrope

I saw a strange light in the sky
A fireball burning brightly
I wished the truck on the overpass would
Tumble down upon me
The truth is just a piece of coal dressed as gold
The truth is just a piece of coal dressed as gold

I turn the heat up to feel the sting
My skin it felt the same
I felt the joint in my shoulder blade
It seemed to feel the same
I felt an ancient scream come out of my mouth
I felt an ancient scream come out of my mouth

What’s the margin for error?
I give myself a little
Tightrope walker, miracle clinger
Seeking acquittal
Who’s to say I don’t care?
I’m only drenched in holy water
That you stole from your father
'Cause you couldn’t help yourself

And the arc of our covenant was a rise and fall
A tailspin on my end we never saw coming
The scar on my lip I got when I was a kid
Transferred to you, transferred to you, transferred to you

The truth is just a piece of coal dressed as gold
The truth is just a piece of coal dressed as gold
