She knows the fear in the eyes of a child He wants soar through the air She's only now just beginning to rise Part of him's already there
So she tried to capture the wind in a box To liven up her rainy day And he's so afraid of waiting up top It's probably better that way
Cause he wasn't that smart and she wasn't so strong But they through the motions as if they belonged Playing their parts in this travelling show And they haven't got far to go
So he finds the enemy waiting inside It's hungry like never before And she brushez off the temptation to lie It's easier just to ignore
And then waltzing on glass is no way to survive When you trip on the truth to fall back on the lies Happier times seem to the lows And they haven't got too far to go
No more tears today No more time to waste 'Cause when I come to the end the I know it's my time to shine
So he always wanted to be someone else She sometimes wanted to die They kept believing in spite of themselves Just time to open their eyes
Cause he wasn't that smart and she wasn't strong But they went through the motions as if they belonged Playing their parts in this travelling show And they haven't got too far to go
And then waltzing on glass is no to survive When you trip on the truth to fall back on the lies Happier times seem to balance the lows And they haven't got too far to go
