"Play It Safe" lyrics

Well, I'm a-sick and tired of the same refrain, it's the
Same one I'd regret
And I, I feel like standing out in the rain just for the
Sake of getting wet
Ah, 'cause every time I turn around there's this
Man with a rusty knife
And he's a-tryna loosen
All the screws on the hinges of my life

Play it safe
Don't lie awake at night
Keepin' an eye on any losing star
And don't push your luck too far
Don't push your luck too far

If I knew for sure that I was bored but I
Just sit here instead
And I look for my reflection every once in a while just to
Make sure I'm not dead
'Cause it a-feels just like a mute hotel and the
Reasons made no sense
Until the speaking clock says at midnight, "Son
You better pay up or get you hence"

Play it safe
Don't lie awake at night
Keepin' an eye on any losing star
And don't push your luck too far
Don't push your luck too far

You can trade your coat for a ticket stub
Le-leave your heart upon the sleeve
And it is just one of the many treasures you can
Buy back when you leave
And there's this lit up advertising sign that says
"Why don't you come in and try?"
And an "OPEN" on the exit door, which I might call a reply
Although it doesn't say goodbye

Play it safe
Don't lie awake at night
Keepin' an eye on any losing star
And don't push your luck too far
Don't push your luck too far
