When you call my name
It's the only truth I'm sure of
Like my neck on a chain
Like some sick game I want some more of
It's out of my hands
When it comes, it's automatic
It's not the love we planned
But baby bring it on bold and tragic
Pre-Chorus
We're just two tightrope walkers dancing
We're breathless as the moment's passing
If I'm going down I'm gonna do it right
I might go blind in the yellow light
I'm gonna take my chances
I'm gonna take my chances
I've been awake in the dead of night
My heartbeat running at the speed of light
I'm gonna take my chances
I'm gonna take my chances
verse 2
If my voice goes cold
If my hands fall and be lifeless
Cough the silver and gold
I will crawl out of the quiet
I will crawl out of the quiet
I will crawl out of the quiet
If I'm going down I'm gonna do it right
I might go blind in the yellow light
I'm gonna take my chances
I'm gonna take my chances
I've been awake in the dead of night
My heartbeat running at the speed of light
I'm gonna take my chances
I'm gonna take my chances
Bridge
Here I go again, my friend
Trying to get back up again
All of the lights of the city are blinding
Living, not grinding
I never thought I could be so damn reckless
I only hoped that I could do my best if
I got out on my own
And I never let go
It's like I'm standing in an execution
I feel the pressure but no solution
I'm gonna take my chances
Don't let me burn to ashes
If I'm going down I'm gonna do it right
I might go blind in the yellow light
I'm gonna take my chances
I'm gonna take my chances
I've been awake in the dead of night
My heartbeat running at the speed of light
I'm gonna take my chances
I'm gonna take my chances
