Title:
“Balancing Act”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse)
Gm D
On the edge of the sanity, we sway
Eb Cm
Caught in the balance of yesterday
Gm D
In a world gone mad, we play
Eb Cm
Dancing on the tightrope, come what may
(Chorus)
Bb Cm Gm
We’re all just balancing,
D Eb F
Living on a dream
Bb Cm Gm
Tip-toeing on the edge,
D Eb F
Of reality’s seam.
(Verse)
Gm D
Figures in black and white, we chase,
Eb Cm
In the ledger of life, we race.
Gm D
With numbers we adorn our space,
Eb Cm
Trying not to fall, keeping pace.
(Chorus)
Bb Cm Gm
We’re all just balancing,
D Eb F
On life’s precarious beam.
Bb Cm Gm
Tip-toeing on the precipice,
D Eb F
Chasing the impossible dream.
