10-9-8

I'll be your loaded dice

You're holding all the cards

You set the tone whenever I'm with you

You make up all the rules

In this game of fools

I see your signals change

They go from green to red

It's always stop and go

When the colors are changing

Never let on, never let on

Look to the left, look to the right

Why can't you look me straight in the eye

10-9-8

I'm always counting down

You feel the pressure when you're under the gun

6-5-4

I'm always counting down

Isn't it funny, I never get to one

I'll be your only chance

I play the only role

I go the distance whenever I'm with you

You make up all the rules

In this game of fools

You keep me in the dark

I'm walking on the wire

I'm on the edge

It's always my time for falling

Never let on, never let on

Look to the left, look to the right

Why can't you look me straight in the eye

10-9-8

I'm always counting down

You feel the pressure when you're under the gun

6-5-4

I'm always counting down

Isn't it funny, I never get to one
