Man on a Wire

Man On A Wire

I looked into the mirror

What did I see

There was a big black beast

Looking back at me

You looked into my eyes

What did you see

You saw a big black beast

Magnified in me

Like a man on a wire

I set myself on fire

Destroyer of our dream

Trying to find a spark

Desperate for love

Like a man on a wire

I was like a volcano

Just waiting to explode

I helped it was a wreck there reborn

And I've been transformed

I was a green eyed monster

Could you tell I was afraid

I sat myself down and shot my fear in the face

Like a man on a wire

I set myself on fire

Destroyer of our dream

Trying to find a spark

Desperate for love

Like a man on a wire

I set myself on fire

Destroyer of our dream

Trying to find a spark

Desperate for love

Like a man on a wire

That's right

Yeah I see you sitting around

With your wristwatch

And your white collared shirt

I see you hoping to watch me fail

You're hoping to watch me fail

I sat myself down and shot my fear in the face

Like a man on a wire

I set myself on fire

Destroyer of our dream

Trying to find a spark

Desperate for love

Like a man on a wire

I set myself on fire

Destroyer of our dream

Trying to find a spark

Desperate for love

Like a man on a wire
