If I'm the first to go
Then make it quick
(Then make it quick)
Then make it quick
We're so young, so naive
It's all for nothing, nothing at all
Liars can't be martyrs, don't you know?
Let me give it to your plain and simple
You walk a fine line, you walk a fine line
You speak of change, you speak of progress
Well I'll believe it when I see it for myself
Let me spell it out a little more clearly
You walk a fine line, you walk a fine line.
Can't you see the irony in
what you do to me?
You get so close (so close)
And make me feel so terribly alone
If I'm the first to go
Then make it quick
(Then make it quick)
Then make it quick
(C)
It's safe to say that we're heading to the crossroads.
We are the galleries of the centuries.
If you knew the truth, it really would've killed you.
If you knew the truth, if you only knew.
We've been caught up in the moment,
And our beds are crowded where we sleep.
I hate to say it but we're never making progress.
I hate to say it, I hate to say it.
Can't you see the irony in
what you do to me?
You get so close (so close)
And make me feel so terribly alone
There's no other name by which I am
saved
I will not be afraid
(to trust in him)
This is a race, to a lost cause
This is a race, to the skies
This is a race, to the
Skies
Aaah
