Tightrope

Allele

You never ask if I'm ok
The knife in my wrist will take your place
You're slipping farther away now
I'm starting to break, I can't take it

The pressure is building inside of me
The tension is taking over
I know that I'm strong enough to see
It's not about me

I cant believe a word you say
That pressure is taking over
I don't know how much I can face, with you
I don't know how much I can take
Despite all the changes you go through

The pressure is building inside of me
The tension is taking over
I know that I'm strong enough to see
It's not about me

No no no 
You never asked if I'm ok
You never wanted me this way
You never asked if I'm ok
I never meant to be this way

The pressure is building inside of me
The tension is taking over
I know that I'm strong enough to see
It's not about me

I look in your eyes and you cannot hide
What I've come to open up
No words of restriction, just words of conviction
It's not about me

The pressure
