Lyrics: 
It’s like I’m walking on a tightrope, tightrope
I can’t go left I can’t go right
I need to balance my weight and wait and
Keep moving forward and brace for flight (brace for flight)

Last week I told you I wanted to leave
Your face said it all now I can’t sleep
No turning back on those words now, words now
Wish you weren’t so fast to agree

It’s like I’m walking on a tightrope, tightrope
I can’t go left I can’t go right
I need to balance my weight and wait and
Keep moving forward and brace for flight (brace for flight)

I packed my things in a cardboard box
I wrapped them up so neatly
There’s little of me left to take back (take back)
Kinda wish you cared more than me

But this is what I wanted, wanted
I was tired of whispering politely
We found it hard to agree
Except for when I wanted to leave
But this is what I wanted, wanted
So why is it so hard to leave?
We found it hard to agree
We didn’t have the right chemistry
The right chemistry
The right chemistry

It’s like I’m walking on a tightrope, tightrope
I can’t go left I can’t go right
I need to balance my weight and wait and
Keep moving forward and brace for flight
Brace for flight
I braced for flight
I braced for flight
I braced for flight
I braced for flight
I braced for flight
I braced for flight
I braced for flight

Tightrope, tightrope, tightrope
Tightrope, tightrope, tightrope

random shower thought helped me realize that these songs are in the same key and here we are!

MAGIK MIC - TIGHTROPE

XXXTENTACION - Tightrope (Feat. Scott James)

Will, Adam and Mike watched TIGHTROPE (1983) dir. by Richard Tuggle.

It's the story of a horny, divorced cop in New Orleans who is after a serial killer.

211 - Tightrope (1983) Clint Eastwood is a Horny Dick

I don't wanna keep score
just know that I'll lose
I can't let you see more 
you know I get too 
I fell off the tightrope 
tell you it's all a ruse
landmine on the top floor
I'll lay it all out for you

I can't do the right thing
only do it wrong to you
energy dissipating 
can you not be cordial 
try to contemplate 
while your deceitful affection
makes me isolate 
my mind filled with your message

obliterate the gap between us
can't find your face
in the darkness I'ma seeker
freed from your chains
but my heart, you're its keeper
always do the wrong thing, maybe for a reason

sever my ties
seven stars align 
lay it all out for you
tightrope
landmine

for a feeling that you want
trust me I can fake it

tired of your bullshit it's so ostentatious

gaze into my eyes, feel my heart racing
if there is no pleasure you know I'm not partaking

tightrope +divine hedonist

should I go or should I stay my fate’s the same either way

break my wrist if she insisted 
tie our nooses tight die kissing 
call me cut me, dont you think im pretty 
laced love backseat wander round the city 
no a devil have no pity have no feelings for a whore 
black eyes i adore the thought of you alone
the thought of you rotting my perfect little corpse 
of course ill let you down, face down in the snow

rada TIGHTROPE [BITCRUSHED REMIX]

"Tightrope" is the ultimate anthem of courage. With stunning female vocals soaring over a blend of intense dance beats and lush, dramatic string sections, this track turns fear into fuel. 
The lyrics tell the story of dancing above the doubts ("Every step’s a gamble, but I’m dancing on the line"), pushing past the critics, and finding the divine thrill in the challenge.
Perfect for those moments when you need to rise and remember you shine brightest under pressure.

Lyrics:

Wake up in the silence, balance on my fears
Put on my brave face, wipe away the tears
World keeps spinning faster, pulling at my seams
But I chase the high inside my wildest dreams

They say I’m one step from the fall
But I don’t hear their doubts at all
I’ve learned to dance when I could crawl
Now I rise, I rise

I'm walking on a tightrope, sky above, no net below
Heartbeat like a drumroll, can’t stop, I won't let go
Every step’s a gamble, but I’m dancing on the line
This life is high and shaky, but the thrill feels so divine
Tightrope — this is how I shine

Crowds below are watching, hoping that I slip
But I’ve built a rhythm in the sway and in the dip
Storms have tried to shake me, winds have called me down
But I’ve got fire laced into my crown

They said I couldn’t make it far
But now I’m walking with the stars
A rebel heart, a battle scar
Still I rise, I rise

I'm walking on a tightrope, sky above, no net below
Heartbeat like a drumroll, can’t stop, I won't let go
Every step’s a gamble, but I’m dancing on the line
This life is high and shaky, but the thrill feels so divine
Tightrope — this is how I shine

No safety net, no turning round
A thousand feet above the ground
I breathe the fear, then let it go
On this line, I steal the show

(Ooh-oh, tightrope, tightrope)
Yeah I walk it, yeah I own it
(Ooh-oh, tightrope, tightrope)
Fearless in the moment
(Ooh-oh, tightrope, tightrope)
No looking down tonight

I'm walking on a tightrope, sky above, no net below
Heartbeat like a drumroll, can’t stop, I won't let go
Every step’s a gamble, but I’m dancing on the line
This life is wild and weightless, and the thrill feels so divine
Tightrope — this is how I shine

One breath, one chance, this is mine
Living loud on the tightrope line

Please no promoters or video makers or cover artists!!!!

I’m a hobbyist songwriter who creates music across genres, letting the mood and lyrics shape the sound. Inspiration can come from almost anything I see, feel, or hear — even a sad movie might spark the urge to write something melancholic. When I make music, I often connect deeply with it myself, sometimes even moved to tears by the songs I create.

I started writing songs because music has always been an essential part of my life. Without music, there would be no life. For me, it’s a safe place, a way to process emotions, and a medicine that helps with almost anything.

I use different DAWs like FL Studio and Audacity, and sometimes build tracks from loops. Thanks to today’s tools, the vocals you hear are virtual — which is probably for the best, so no one’s ears have to suffer from my singing!

All kinds of music can inspire me, as long as it touches me in some way. If my music can resonate with someone out there, then it’s all worth it.

My earlier songs are short as i was trying to use my limited time on Soundcloud constructively. I now have Pro Unlimited so I am able to make full-length tracks.

A celebration of cinema!
