Tightrope
Annmarie Montade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You wanna walk a tightrope
To see how well you would cope
As your glidin' by on thin air
Better be careful when you're up there
'Cause who will be your trampoline
Bounce the ideas from your crazy dreams
When as reckless as they seem
So don't be careful with what you would tear

You're too young to be too sensible
You're too young to be a child
And a dream is not dispensable
So be crazy and be wild

The circus leaves your town today
Do you dream perhaps to run away?
They could try to tame your tiger heart
So jet for the jungle before they even start

You're too young to be too sensible
You're too young to be a child
And a dream is not dispensable
You better be crazy and be wild

Coz I'll be your safety net on the ground

And you wanna walk a tightrope
And if they tell you you've got no hope
You're too young to be too sensible
Remember, you're too young to be too sensible
Remember you're too young





Just so young
Be crazy (twice)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Tightrope" by Annmarie Montade are inspiring and motivating, urging the listener to embrace their dreams and aspirations with fearlessness and tenacity. The song's powerful message is embodied in the metaphor of a tightrope, which represents taking risks and living life to the fullest. The singer encourages the listener to take chances and be reckless with their endeavors, to bounce their crazy ideas off of someone that they can trust, and to not be careful with what they would tear.


The chorus expresses the idea that young people should not be too sensible or cautious because a dream is not dispensable, and it should not be shrugged off. The circus that represents society could try to tame one's tiger heart and prevent them from achieving their desires, but the singer urges the listener to jet away to the jungle before they even start. The overall message of the song is that being wild and crazy would lead one to achieve their dreams, and the safety net or support system would always be there to catch or encourage them if they fall.

I randomly came across an iCarly clip of this episode on Facebook today, so tried searching for this song. It's been so long since this episode came out on iCarly, time flies man, nostalgia hitting hard.

@ThePyton7

Finally found it!!! Been searching it for a long time! Thanks! :D

@ZainR

Hi Everyone! It's Annmarie Montade! Thanks so much for uploading this DEmerson. There are still a few lyric errors...but please feel free to interpret the song/lyrics however you hear them. The opening line should be "YOU WANNA WALK A TIGHTROPE, TO SEE HOW WELL YOU WOULD COPE"....The 2nd verse should say "DO YOU DREAM PERHAPS TO RUN AWAY" (not whorl away).The lyric in the guitar solo should be "COZ I'LL BE YOUR SAFETY NET ON THE GROUND" and not "Sound be asleep with 2 men on the ground" xo
