Song Lyrics


Highwire
by Doug Hallock, Broken

Album: Dead Man Walkin'


I woke up the other day feeling blue, didn't have a lot to say was struggling
The past was flashing thru my head
I thought about the little boy who could run to fast the wind just could not catch him
Run forever and a day

Seventeen I was running again only this time straight to the arms of sin and bondage
Running straight to the dark man's bed
Twenty six I was so messed up couldn't tell if the lie was true, told so many
Dark man laughing in my head

Didn't know what the truth was
Told so many lies it's shameful
Wretched sinner of a man
Didn't care who I stepped on
Crushed the meek and smashed the broken
Deserving death is who I am

Forty five I was still jacked up gonna die from the drug and pain would someone help me
The hangman's rope is on the tree
Oh Lord if you're really out there please stop by this boy's gonna die forever
I'm so lost and all alone

Was hanging on a highwire
When you came and rescued me
Oh how can I thank you
Was holding on a lifeline
When you pulled me from the sea
Broke my heart and set me free

Forty nine I'm living for Christ I know He's there, He saved my life oh thank you
Praise and glory to the king
Ninety nine I will praise your name just prop me up, I'll shout your fame oh bless you
Hallelujah to the Lamb
I choose to live in the light there's a whole lotta pain but it's worth the fight so help me
Tears of glory break my heart
Don't know enough but I know this much my savior lives and reigns in heaven
He has set the captives free
