Man On A Wire

I looked into the mirror, what did I see?

There was a big black beast looking back at me

You looked into my eyes, what did you see?

You saw a big black beast, magnified in me



Like a man on a wire, I set myself on fire

Destroyer of a dream

Trying to find a spark, desperate for love

Like a man on a wire



I was like a volcano, just waiting to explode

But I have been resurrected, reborn, and I have been transformed

I was a green eyed monster, could you tell I was afraid?

I sat myself down and shot my fear in the face



Like a man on a wire, I set myself on fire

Destroyer of a dream

Trying to find a spark, desperate for love

Like a man on a wire, I set myself on fire

Destroyer of a dream

Trying to find a spark, desperate for love

Like a man on a wire



That's right

Yeah, I see you sitting around

With your wristwatch

And your white collared shirt

I see you hoping to watch me fail

Uh uh

You're hoping to watch me fail

Uh uh

I sat myself down and shot my fear in the face



Like a man on a wire, I set myself on fire

Destroyer of a dream

Trying to find a spark, desperate for love

Like a man on a wire, I set myself on fire

Destroyer of a dream

Trying to find a spark, desperate for love

Like a man on a wire
