Tightwire - Adam Sams

Scarred by time and bruised by bitter days

With a rusty, haggard frame and a cynical gaze

Worn out where the years took their toll

Trying to turn these shattered shards into something whole

I’m banging on a tight wire

Trying to find meaning in the coughs and the rattles

I’m banging on a tight wire

Turning it into a song

Most of the greatest lessons I have learned

Fell out of the failures that left me feeling burned

This road is hard and this world sure ain’t kind

But my broken parts are a sign that I’m alive

I’m banging on a tight wire

Trying to find meaning in the coughs and the rattles

I’m banging on a tight wire

Turning it into a song

I’m playing with a wild fire

Creating control

I’m playing with a wild fire

It’s all I know

I’m banging on a tight wire

Trying to find meaning in the coughs and the rattles

I’m banging on a tight wire

Turning it into a song
