Lyrics
0:39We're living in a different reality
0:44We're toeing the same line
0:47We give in we call it neutrality
0:52A joke with no punchline
0:55The silver plated hero
0:58Meets the golden hearted whore
1:03The odds'll give you zero
1:06She'll be leaving in a few days more
1:12Movin' on forever maybe she don't care
1:20Holding on together maybe
1:24It just ain't there
1:27You're dancing on a high wire
1:30You need to be so sure
1:35There used to be a lifeline
1:38There isn't anymore
1:43We are the same with no similarity
1:48We talk at the same time
1:51We believe in freedom and charity
1:56As long as I get mine
1:59The ivory madonna is walking
2:03Through the door
2:03You watch her from a window
2:10It doesn't matter anymore
2:16Moving on forever maybe she don't care
2:24Holding on together maybe
2:28It just ain't there
2:31You're dancing on a high wire
2:34You need to be so sure
2:39There used to be a life-line
2:42There isn't anymore
3:20Moving on forever maybe she don't care
3:28Holding on together maybe
3:32It just ain't there
3:35You're dancing on a high wire
3:38You need to be so sure
3:42There used to be a life-line
3:46There isn't anymore
3:50Dancing on a high wire
3:54You need to be so sure
3:58There used to be a life-line
4:02There isn't anymore
We're living in a different reality We're toeing the same line We give in we call it neutrality A joke with no punchline The silver plated hero Meets the golden hearted whore The odds'll give you zero She'll be leaving in a few days more Movin' on forever maybe she don't care Holding on together maybe It just ain't there You're dancing on a high wire You need to be so sure There used to be a lifeline There isn't anymore We are the same with no similarity We talk at the same time We believe in freedom and charity As long as I get mine The ivory madonna is walking Through the door You watch her from a window It doesn't matter anymore Moving on forever maybe she don't care Holding on together maybe It just ain't there You're dancing on a high wire You need to be so sure There used to be a life-line There isn't anymore Moving on forever maybe she don't care Holding on together maybe It just ain't there You're dancing on a high wire You need to be so sure There used to be a life-line There isn't anymore Dancing on a high wire You need to be so sure There used to be a life-line There isn't anymore
