Walking on a Tightrope

I was listening to you talk today
It couldn't really be considered just talking
How do you talk to her like that?
How do you talk to me like that?
Do you know that hurts?
You have to know
Maybe your blind
Maybe you are
How could you not hear me listening from the bathroom
Trying not to break down
That's what I do best
Try not to break down
Sometimes it feels like that's the only thing I do
Try not to break
Be strong
Be the perfect image
Ignore it ever happened
Well I'm not ignoring anymore
I can't ignore anymore
Be negative
Be pessimistic
Go ahead
I won't be me around you anymore
I won't be myself
Is that what you want?
An image
Or me
I'm still fragile
Remember that
I know you have stress
We all do
My life isn't perfect
My life isn't bad
But it's far from perfect
I want someone steady
Not a bomb about to go off
That isn't all you are
But it's a big part
I don't need it
Walking on a tightrope
Walking on the edge of a cliff
I always am
Do you not realize it?
Always afraid of doing the wrong thing
Saying the wrong thing
Always afraid
It's always there
Continue doing this
I dare you
But when you come knocking you won't be let it.
