| 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,
|
| Said I’m terrified, but I’m not leaving,
|
| I know that I must pass this test,
|
| So just pull the trigger (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
|
| And you can see my heart beating,
|
| Know you can see it through my chest,
|
| Said I’m terrified but I’m not leaving,
|
| I know that I must pass this test,
|
| So just pull the trigger…
|
| 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… |
