[05:29.0]Through the morning mist I hear the jungle drum
[05:29.0]Concrete hugs against the sky
[05:29.0]Like a needle searching for the vein
[05:29.0]It feels so cold
[05:29.0]Wish I was high
[05:29.0]Life on the wire
[05:29.0]How I love to be up there
[05:29.0]Life on the wire
[05:29.0]How it leaves me running scared
[05:29.0]No more waiting something had to give
[05:29.0]And when it came a strange release
[05:29.0]I never really knew if it was in my brain
[05:29.0]Until the day I went too far
[05:29.0]Life on the wire
[05:29.0]How I love to be up there
[05:29.0]Life on the wire
[05:29.0]How it leaves me
[05:29.0]I can't stand it one more night
[05:29.0]Take this hell away
[05:29.0]I can't stand it one more night
[05:29.0]There's no other way
[05:29.0]A stage door pass for friends
[05:29.0]Amongst the garbage cans
[05:29.0]Just old soldiers calling time
[05:29.0]The smell of meths runs high
[05:29.0]Across this stinking waste
[05:29.0]Is it any place to die?
[05:29.0]Life on the wire
[05:29.0]How I love to be up there
[05:29.0]Life on the wire
[05:29.0]How it leaves me running scared
[05:29.0]I can't stand it one more night
[05:29.0]Take this hell away
[05:29.0]I can't stand it one more night
[05:29.0]There's no other way
