The chips are down And we are drowning in the flood It's such a cruel mistress A bitter taste tonight Amidst the rising tide of good tries The goodbyes make the ride home On the wrong road Seem Oh so trite
The seatbelt is keeping me trapped The artform of not holding back
It's arduous this glamorous life It's arduous don't stop now This is not a cautionary tale The fuse is lit so run for help Thirty minutes will burn faster than incinderary bomb's (Whoa oh oh) In standing here we learn to fall In holding tight we lost it all In thrity minutes we believe We're gonna chase this falling star (Whoa oh oh) Thank you for coming here tonight I see the wonder in your eyes Don't let me steer you wrong I wrote this down to tear you up
This is our labour, this is our labour of love to you, love to you I'd rather bleed than live to see the day the song died out
