I know you from someplace beyond my head
It's not true how dull it tastes, so am I dead?
Expectation killed the dream
Steady dangling off a beam
But it's harder than it seems
Now I'm desperate for the time
Steady dancing on the line
Then you look into my eyes
I don't wanna make a scene
Don't run away, don't run away
I don't wanna let you see
Don't run away, don't run away
I can't prove, fact from faith
To save my skin
I love you and your face
Is all I said
Expectation killed the dream
Steady dangling off a beam
But it's harder than it seems
Now I'm desperate for the time
Steady dancing on the line
Then you look into my eyes
I don't wanna make a scene
Don't run away
And maybe I could take you down
I know myself, I've been around
You caught my eye, I felt at home
And maybe I could take you down
I know myself, I've been around
You caught my eye, I felt at home
Expectation killed the dream
Steady dangling off a beam
But it's harder than it seems
Now I'm desperate for the time
Steady dancing on the line
Then you look into my eyes
I don't wanna make a scene
Don't run away, don't run away
I don't wanna let you see
Don't run away, don't run away
Expectation killed the dream
Steady dangling off a beam
But it's harder than it seems
Don't run away
Now I'm desperate for the time
Steady dancing on the line
Then you look into my eyes
Look into my eyes
