My line was straight and stable at the time when I came in
It moved both ways through joy and pain but then returned again
The ups the downs were in control as child turned into youth
My home life changed and left me with a longing for the truth
A Devil in disguise took me too high above the ground
I felt so good but fell below the line when I came down
It took so long for me to find my way back to the base
I can not risk the pleasure so he's gone without a trace
So now my many highs are real the lows are very few
The level's always in my mind the balance always true
