[Verse 1] I was a child All young and mild And you were a lion All brave and wild I was a fighter Naively inspired By the hands of a liar And a life on the wire [Verse 2] I was no wiser Along for the ride A spark in the fire A balancing light [Chorus] I can feel the tension I can almost hear the angels choir Better pay attention On the wire [Verse 3] You're my constant reminder That I'm just a spider And maybe you'll find her Out on the wire [Chorus] I can feel the tension I can almost hear the angels choir Better pay attention On the wire [Chorus] I can feel the tension I can almost hear the angels choir Better pay attention On the wire
