I can't let myself cry
I can't stay awake and wonder why
I've gotta hold it together
I'm not gettin' worse, not gettin' better

It's like I'm on a tightrope
Takin' it slow

I'm walkin' a fine line
I'm not at my best, I'm a bit of a mess
But I'm alright
Keepin' my eyes on the horizon
Oh, I can't look down until I've learned to fly
So I'm walkin' on a fine line

My friends from home are callin' me
To say they miss me and to ask me how I've been
But I never know what to say
How do I tell them I'm about to break?

'Cause I'm on a tightrope
Taking it slow

I'm walkin' a fine line
I'm not at my best, I'm a bit of a mess
But I'm alright
I'm keepin' my eyes on the horizon
Oh, I can't look down until I've learned to fly
So I'm walkin' on a fine line

Oh, I can't look down until I've learned to fly
If I'm fallin', I'll feel it in the middle of the night
But they say, all my pain, it will heal in due time
So I'm walkin' on a fine line
Walkin' on a fine line
