Brett Anderson - Tightrope lyrics

[Verse 1] You seem to love me when I'm not around When I have to go to ground You just seem to want me when I'm never there Silence is everywhere [Chorus] On a tightrope with you Too scared to look down through my fingers Walking a tightrope with you I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose [Verse 2] You seem to know where your life's headed next But first you'll just stay in bed Clicking your fingers and dragging your heels The high life is within you [Chorus] On a tightrope with you Too scared to look down through my fingers Walking a tightrope with you I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose [Bridge] We know more than we used to We know more than we used to [Chorus] On a tightrope with you Too scared to look down through my fingers Walking a tightrope with you I made my mistake when I slipped through the noose [Verse 4 (repeat of Verse 1)] You seem to love me when I am not around When I have to go to ground But you seem to want me when I am never there Silence is everywhere
