"Dance With Death" lyrics

"Dance With Death"

I had a heavy conscience
On that night we drove the hills
Should probably be more cautious
'Cause I've been thinking that my thoughts could kill

Fly around the bend
Right up to the edge
It's a dance with death
But I'm here with my friends
Forever in their debt
'Cause it's not the first time
We've made it out alive

And I'm burning up, got a fever for the drive
Prayer on my lips, cover my bases if we die
Whatever comes, I know I've got you by my side
Let the headlines run
"Three killed in the time of their lives"

And when it happened we were laughing
We were spitting in the wind
What would they say if we all died and that was it?
Just another crash along the ridge
I was smiling in the backseat
Living poor and feeling rich
Thinking back to when I could've called it quits
I can't remember the last time I felt like this
'Cause right now I'm alright
We made it out alive

And I'm burning up, got a fever for the drive
Prayer on my lips, cover my bases if we die
Whatever comes, I know I've got you by my side
Let the headlines run
"Three killed in the time of their lives"

The time of their lives

We looked like angles
But sometimes it ain't so pure
I guess we never learned any better
But we stayed so faithful
When banked around those turns
And it's all blur

Time can seem so
Heavy when you hold it
Like a heatstroke
Caught up in the moment

Time can seem so
Heavy when you hold it
Like a heatstroke

And I'm burning up, got a fever for the drive
Prayer on my lips, cover my bases if we die
Whatever comes, I know I've got you by my side
Let the headlines run
"Three killed in the time of their lives"

The time of their lives
