About the work
Verse 1
You think you’re the saint
of your own story
You think hiding it
will leave you unpunished
But the truth
always comes to light
It always does
Verse 2
You gave in to the easy way
Let go the weight of your mistakes
Blamed Tom,
the vile scoundrel he’s always been
But nothing erases
the weight of your deeds
Chorus
Dancing on the fraying tightrope
Shaking on the thread that breaks
Feeling the weight
of your doom
Bridge
Dark days...
you want to disappear
Forever? I don’t know
I just want you to be okay
Who am I to judge
or forgive
Verse 3
Hanging from a thread
that breaks
Actions left you
on the tightrope
Savoring your foretold end
Outro
Actions left you
on the tightrope
And still, the shadow of your deeds
will follow you till your last breath
