Take a breath, take it deep Calm yourself, he says to me If you play, you play for keeps Take the gun, and count to three I'm sweating now, moving slow No time to think, my turn to go
And you can see my heart beating You can see it through my chest And I'm terrified but I'm not leaving I know that I must pass this test So just pull the trigger
Say a prayer to yourself He says close your eyes, sometimes it helps And then I get, a scary thought That he's here, means he's never lost
As my life flashes before my eyes I'm wondering will I ever see another sunrise So many won't get the chance to say goodbye But it's too late to think of the value of my life
