I’ve got nothing baby, so I’ve got nothing to lose But I’m fumbling for a starting point, and it’s tempting to refuse I’m searching for familiarity, but I’ve never been here before When you’re so far out your comfort zone you’re knocking on the devil’s door Sat in the passenger seat of a car on the way to find out my fate There’s a million things I should be worried about but I’m finally thinking straight. Fix up, look sharp and push yourself, ‘cause it’s time to take the pledge Life just seems much more exciting when you’re living on the edge I wanna go on the run from a killer with a gun when there’s nowhere left to hide I wanna walk through hell with no shoes on and come out the other side Stand up, stand tall, get ready for the fall and hope the cracks don’t appear To alleviate the pressure like a hand grenade, just sit back and feel the fear This is how I know I’m alive This is how I know I’m alive, And I can’t stop this feeling inside I’m terrified Walking through those wild and windy storms Seems too have got you this far
