Ember Swift - Stiltwalking lyrics

We drove straight into the morning Watched the shadows slowly lift, the blackness shift And turn to navy, purple, teal and the perfect sky blue Somehow, the distance seems more real when it floats into view We have come so far, so far to go... We have had to rise above so much crap Strapping on a different world view to cushion all the mishaps And, it's ridiculous to run so we slowly edge along The rule is: more fun than frustration; less stress, more songs And of course to try to get along with each other Sometimes I feel like I am just walking on stilts (stiltwalking) Sometimes I feel like I am just walking on stilts (stiltwalking) It's a wobbly view We juggle time like colourful balls Changing shades as they cascade in waterfalls Days of mornings that act like night, see the light Dawning on us to rest and revive, to survive this circus test This is the life; This is the CIRCUS! We are at our best; This is our life...This is the CIRCUS! But, we've got to try to get along with each other Sometimes I feel like I am just walking on stilts (stiltwalking) Sometimes I feel like I am just walking on stilts (stiltwalking) "How? Why? What makes you do it?" We are asked, we are cast as those who get through it It has to be more fun than fatigue, more of a joy than a chore From the soul from a need Because, after all, what are we breathing for? Stiltwalking... Hobbling, Laughing Wobbling, Crashing Stilwalking...
