ALLELE LYRICS - Tightrope

"Tightrope"



You never ask if I'm ok

The knife in my wrist will take your place

You're slipping farther away now

I'm starting to break, I can't take it



The pressure is building inside of me

The tension is taking over

I know that I'm strong enough to see

It's not about me



I cant believe a word you say

That pressure is taking over

I don't know how much I can face, with you

I don't know how much I can take

Despite all the changes you go through



The pressure is building inside of me

The tension is taking over

I know that I'm strong enough to see

It's not about me



No no no [x4]



You never asked if I'm ok

You never wanted me this way

You never asked if I'm ok

I never meant to be this way



The pressure is building inside of me

The tension is taking over

I know that I'm strong enough to see

It's not about me



I look in your eyes and you cannot hide

What I've come to open up

No words of restriction, just words of conviction

It's not about me



The pressure [echo] [x4]
