Lyrics
Thread
I am hanging by a thread
I am not who I want to be
Things have turned out
much differently
I am grounded not in the air
I am here when I should be there
I'm pretending that it's all ok
(chorus) its all so trivial
these games we have to play
just to get by
putting on disguises
playing different roles
It makes me wonder why
I'm not running I am stopped
Lost my direction
To the top
I am falling backwards
I cannot feel I am numb
Maybe I'd be better off playing dumb
Everyone else seems
to be happier that way
(chorus)
I cannot see I've been blinded
By the glare of my compromises
I am not where I thought
I would be by this time
I am hanging by a thread
I am hanging by a thread
I am hanging by a thread
