Illy - Tightrope Lyrics






I was like what you want me to do?
She was like what you want me to choose?
I was like well I didn't say that, but you know
Help me help you
I'm on the balance beam to keep you happy
Or say fuck it, stay mad at me
Know how that goes, drink, fight, patch things up in the back of a taxi
She can skate thin ice on wheels and not once get wet
She could walk fine lines in heels not one foot out of step
And I swear I'll leave you swept, off your feet it's just I guess
I'm falling hard on myself here, yeah over my head

Yeah, it's like I'm walking on a tightrope
And every step could be the one where I fall
It's like I'm running with a blindfold
And I could be wrong but I don't know I don't know!

Headed for the deep end, Thursday we fight and forget it by the weekend
Fast learner, I figured out quick
With her it's not the getting it's the keeping
Cause she's a gem, so everyone wants her shinning with them
Gettin my bulldog on bro
Mind your step, keep it on your side of the fence
I play my demo's one last once
Smile if she likes it, laugh if it sucks!
Cold blooded, she the first in my corner
But now, what's that if it ain't called love
When it's all said and done, baby ain't happy 'till my heads spun
So I might get lucky
I might get none
Like I'm right back at square one!

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope
And every step could be the one where I fall
It's like I'm running with a blindfold
And I can't help but feel that I'm about to lose control!
Yeah, it's like I'm walking on a tightrope,
running with a blindfold, rolling with my eyes closed, woah
Its like I'm walking on a tightrope
And I could be wrong
But I don't know, I don't know!

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope
And every step could be the one where I fall
It's like I'm running with a blindfold
And I can't help but feel that I'm about to lose control

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope,
running with a blindfold, rolling with my eyes closed
It's like I'm walking on a tightrope
And I could be wrong, and I could be wrong

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope
And every step could be the one where I fall
It's like I'm running with a blindfold
And I can't help but feel that I'm about to lose control!

It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, running with a blindfold
Rolling with my eyes closed
Woah
It's like I'm walking on a tightrope, and I could be wrong
But I don't know I don't know

    Why was Six afraid of Seven? Because last year Six had a torrid love affair with Four lasting for many months. Soon into the relationship Six and Four fell in love, but Six knew she could never leave Seven because she was afraid of his violent past.

    One cold Autumn night Six came home in tears and locked herself in the bathroom. By this time Seven was already drunk and pounded on the door demanding to be let in. Eventually Seven's rage took over and he kicked the door down with a powerful roundhouse to find Six standing there holding a positive pregnancy test.

    Seven knew he couldn't be the father because he was sterile from years of working at a nuclear plant. Seven saw red and flew into a whirlwind of fury beating upon Six with hammering blows. She screamed "FOUR, IT'S FOUR'S CHILD, PLEASE! PLEASE STOP!" Seven stared at Six in disbelief, "Four? That good for nothing Even aint even a Prime!" Seven stormed out of the bathroom and out the front door, grabbing his pistol off of the table on his way out. He floored it to the restaurant Four owned like a demon.

    Pulling up to Four's eatery, All You Can Eight, Seven threw open the door demanding to speak with him. A young girl named Decimal tried to cover for Four, but Seven spotted him trying to sneak out through the kitchen. Seven grabbed Four by the digit and pulled out his .38. Four begged "Please, I love her! Please, if you truly love her too you will let her go, please!"

    Without hesitation Seven pulled the trigger. The sound echoed throughout the restaurant like a thunder strike. Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then full panic, numbers running everywhere, stampeding over each other. Stomping over Four's lifeless body and in the panic Seven slipped out with the crowd and made his escape.

    Since that day Six has moved and changed her name but knows one day Seven will track her down and find her, and she lives in constant fear for her life and the life of her newborn son, Ten.

    And now you know why Six is afraid of Seven.

  86. A.... T....
