Tightrope
Tinashe Lyrics
Hope it plays out my way in a different timeline
I would recognize that feeling any lifetime
Don't want no parts of it when I'm in my right mind
My right mind, not in my right mind
You and I been playing petty, little love games
Got me twisted up and mixed up in my old ways
Barely recognize myself, I'm so ashamed
Ashamed
And my mind instantly begins to picture
All the different places that you've kissed her
And my pride is screamin', "Get yourself together"
"You know everything has happened for the better"
There's way more fish in the sea, I already know that
But when my loyalty kick in, I can't control that
And I been healin' myself, I'm goin' in cycles
I'm so unstable, I'm balancin' on a tightrope
Yeah, yeah
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Need an escape route (uh-huh)
Ooh, before I hit the ground
No (uh-huh)
No (uh-huh)
No (uh-huh)
No (uh-huh)
Don't look down
Don't look down
I remember back before we were so toxic
Summer nights in L.A. make me feel nostalgic
Driving through the hills until we all got carsick
Oh, oh, oh
I'm still waitin' for the day I come across you
I'll be so unbothered like I never blocked you
But now I'm speeding in my Tesla on the freeway
Got a song about you, listening on replay
No
No
Baby don't
Go, ooh-ooh
No
There's way more fish in the sea, I already know that
But when my loyalty kick in, I can't control that
And I been healing myself, I'm goin' in cycles
I'm so unstable, I'm balancing on a tightrope
Yeah, yeah
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Need an escape route (uh-huh)
Ooh, before I hit the ground
No (uh-huh)
No (uh-huh)
No (uh-huh)
No (uh-huh)
Don't look down
Don't look down
I would recognize that feeling any lifetime
Don't want no parts of it when I'm in my right mind
My right mind, not in my right mind
You and I been playing petty, little love games
Got me twisted up and mixed up in my old ways
Barely recognize myself, I'm so ashamed
Ashamed
And my mind instantly begins to picture
And my pride is screamin', "Get yourself together"
"You know everything has happened for the better"
There's way more fish in the sea, I already know that
But when my loyalty kick in, I can't control that
And I been healin' myself, I'm goin' in cycles
I'm so unstable, I'm balancin' on a tightrope
Yeah, yeah
Uh-huh, uh-huh
