Here's what you have to do
You gotta coat yourself in steel
Whatever you do don't be fooled
The danger is real
Now wrap your hands
Around the wire
Start making your way across
But pace yourself
You're gonna get tired
You'll probably get lost
'Cause I'm mean
When you need me to be kind
And you reach for me when I'm Safest left alone
And I dwell
While you leave it all behind
So don't look down, no
It's all in your head, baby
It's about time you decide
If you're gonna fall or fly
And when your hands start to shake
And I promise you they will
And when the line
Threatens to break
You gotta be willing to be killed
'Cause I'm mean
When you need me to be kind
And you reach for me when I'm Safest left alone
And I dwell
While you leave it all behind
So don't look down, no
It's all in your head, baby
It's about time you decide
If you're gonna fall or fly
