I am not the type to fall apart It doesn't mean you didn't break my heart Sometimes I cry, but it makes me stronger I'm balancing my days on a wire I'm balancing from fire to fire I'll learn to be patient, this could take a while I have to forgive for the sake of our child I'm balancing, I'm balancing Wish I were free to fall I see the cracks begin to show But my pride would never let you know Sometimes I scream when I know you can't hear me I'm balancing my days on a wire I'm balancing from fire to fire I'll learn to be patient, this could take a while I have to forgive for the sake of our child I'm balancing, I'm balancing Wish I were free to fall Wish I were free to fall I'm balancing my days on a wire I'm balancing from fire to fire I'll learn to be patient, this could take a while I have to forgive for the sake of our child I'm balancing, I'm balancing I'm balancing Wish I were free to fall
