Lyrics
Tightrope walker don't you fall down now You're almost to the other side and at your bow Tightrope walker if you don't pull through You're gonna scar the children who had faith in you True, the view is quite a thing to see Even if it ain't the thrill it used to be Tightrope walker been up there for years Now comes the time she's contemplating switching gears But if you look upon the ground And you think about the sound Of your bones and guts and more All exploding on the floor And the fear that you will feel It will activate your zeal And keep you moving along K-k-keep on moving along K-k-k-ooh K-k-k-mountain climber don't you head back now 'Cuz you can see thе peak and you made a vow Even though you can no longеr feel your face You know your sycophants wait at the base And as you're choking on a cloud Think of just how frickin' loud They will scream when you've returned That some fanart you'll have earned Every compliment you field Is another wound that's healed And you keep moving along K-k-keep on moving along Whoa K-k-k-ooh Some people are fueled by terror Some people are fueled by praise Then there are people like me Who live vicariously Through YouTube video of other's accomplishments Who get lost down the rabbit hole for minutes and hours and days and days and days and days and days and days and days K-k-k-body builder K-k-k-deep sea diver K-k-k-starving artist, oh my power's gone I need to pay the bill to get it turned back on The rabbit hole is closed as far as I can tell And this black screen in front of me is reflective as hell I think about the dreams I had a twenty-two I think about the garbage year I just got through I think how lately I just feel beat down and tired The motivation's not the same, my drive's expired I rather get distracted by some silly clip Then keep on playing captain of some sinking ship But then the power turns back on, I reengage And then a built in message pops up on the page It asks if I want to restore The page that I was on before Guy scales a mountain broken bone Do I watch or do I scale my own I close my eyes as I decide, hmm I feel a buzzing deep inside, hmm It's the vibrate on my phone Hey look a gif of Emma Stone Hey look a thinkpiece on some war What was I thinking 'bout before Do I look woke in this or wrong I hate my vocal on this song So I keep on moving along K-k-keep on moving along Like like like Oh / like like like, click click click Oh / click click click, swipe swipe swipe Click click click, swipe swipe swipe Starving artist / swipe swipe swipe, click click click, swipe swipe swipe, click click click Mountain climber / click click click, swipe swipe swipe, click click click, swipe swipe swipe Tightrope walker / click click click, swipe swipe swipe Done
