lyrics

Long shot or sure thing? Foxtrot or slow swing?
A blue moon for a hot date, too soon or is too late?
Trigger itch or gun shy? In the ditch or riding high?
Godsend or damnation? Dead end or sweet salvation?

Pin drop – did you hear? Heart stop, cold fear.
Gut wrench, the occasion; teeth clench, anticipation.
Brains churn, can't think; cheeks burn – need a drink.
Tongue-tied, I can tell no lies, Blind-side, took me by surprise

Some things you can't control
You have to let go, let the reins fall,
Let the dice lie where they roll
Some things you can't control:
When the winds blow, when you hear the sirens call

Breadline – to survive; deadline gives you drive
Bad day makes you tense, hell to pay – no recompense
Take out your frustration, scream and shout - no communication.
Wake up after midnight; want to make up, but where's your appetite?

Some things you can't control
You have to let go, let the reins fall,
Let the dice lie where they roll
Some things you can't control:
When the winds blow, when you hear the sirens call

Some things you can't control
You have to let go, let the reins fall,
Let the dice lie where they roll
Some things you can't control:
When the winds blow, when you hear the sirens call
