the duras sisters - forsaken lyrics
forsaken lyrics
here, together but alone
the walls close and confine us
caught again behind the mask
our images define us
trying to discover
where our common boundaries meet
we hope to find a middle ground
in victory or defeat
[chorus]
walking the tightrope between hope and fear
playing the part that’s expected;
crossing the border from laughter to tears
nothing is what we ever suspected
staring straight ahead, we talk
of life, of dreams and sorrow
vision blurred with lack of sleep
we beg, we steal, we borrow
strength from one another
as the nighttime turns to day
our inhibitions lowering
pretenses stripped away
[chorus]
walking the tightrope between hope and fear
playing the part that’s expected;
crossing the border from laughter to tears
nothing is what we ever suspected
minutes passing, one by one
our energy decreases
spirits fade and colors blur
the picture slowly creases
watercolor effigies
our pigments fuse and blend
we hold to one another as the
vignette nears an end
[chorus]
walking the tightrope between hope and fear
playing the part that’s expected;
crossing the border from laughter to tears
nothing is what we ever suspected
