The Wire

If I were a crow,

I wouldn't have no fear of heights

For watching this old world's fragile below

I don't have a net, don't have no jet wings,

I can't fly

If I miss a step, yeah, that's how

I'd goOh, the wire keeps getting higher, keeps getting higher

I ain't looking down no more

On the wire,

I don't know why

Tell me what

I'm up here for

If I was a king, somebody would take the risk for me

I'll just sit and watch them walk the line

But if my night burns out like a match in gasoline

If I take the fall, well, it's all mine

Oh, the wire keeps getting higher, keeps getting higher

I ain't looking down no more

Up on the wire,

I don't know why

Tell me what

I'm up here for

Oh, the wire keeps getting higher, keeps getting higher

I ain't looking down no more

On the wire,

I don't know why

Tell me what

I'm up here for

Higher, on the wire

Tell me what

I'm up here for

I'm on the wire, on the wire

I ain't looking down no more
