[Verse 1]
I left the phone on the shelf
Let the whole world wait for itself
No more carrying smoke in my chest
I’m done wearing worry like a vest
Got my boots on the curb, got time in my hand
Sun on my face, I’m a one-man band
If it ain’t here right now, it can pass on by
I’m breathing slow with my head up high
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands off the wheel
I’m not in a race
I’m here for the taste
Of this minute, this place
[Chorus]
Easy on the wire
I’m alive, I’m alive
Easy on the wire
Let the hard stuff slide
Take it easy now
Take it easy now (easy now)
Easy on the wire
I’m alive, I’m alive
[Verse 2]
Got dust on the strings and a grin in the room
Kick drum talking like a heart saying boom
No more chasing the ghosts in the glass
I let that pressure train go fast
I want the red in the sky, want the rumble below
Want the bass in my bones and a steady slow glow
If the night wants to move, I’ll move with it too
I’m not built to break, I’m built to cruise
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands off the wheel
I’m not in a race
I’m here for the taste
Of this minute, this place
[Chorus]
Easy on the wire
I’m alive, I’m alive
Easy on the wire
Let the hard stuff slide
Take it easy now
Take it easy now (easy now)
Easy on the wire
I’m alive, I’m alive
[Bridge]
I used to wear the weight like a crown
Now I lay it down, lay it down
No more hell in my head
No more running ahead
Just this beat, just this floor
Just my name at the door
I found peace in the roar
And I want a little more
[Chorus]
Easy on the wire
I’m alive, I’m alive
Easy on the wire
Let the hard stuff slide
Take it easy now
Take it easy now (easy now)
Easy on the wire
I’m alive, I’m alive
