Lyrics
Deathwish in the fading light Headlight pointing through the night Never thought I'd see the day Playing with my life this way Gotta keep my foot right down If I had wings I'd leave the ground Burning in the outside lane People think that I'm insane The day I take a bend too fast Judgment that could be my last I'll be wiped right off the slate Don't wait up 'cause I'll be late
