I'm stinking and I'm full of gin
I'm very fragile, not built to last
Have to pull it together
Blood on the pillow of my bed
It's almost time to put on my suit of cool
'Cos I'm walking on a high wire, high wire
'Cos I'm walking on a high wire
Sometimes I can't tell but it's just as well
Sometimes I can't tell but it's just as well
Explains the pain that's in my head
Sometimes I can't tell but it's just as well
And I have to pull it together
There's no need to close the door so fast
Sometimes I don't know which way to go
We're in for some nasty weather
I may be an idiot but indeed I am no fool
Diving through the ring of fire, high wire
High wire through the ring of fire, high wire
Really isn't too much fun
[Incomprehensible]
Sometimes I don't know which way to go
High wire, high wire, high wire, high wire
We're in for some stormy weather
[Incomprehensible]
Sitting 'round, waiting for the night to come
Sometimes I don't know which way to go
Oh, won't someone let me in?
[Incomprehensible]
