Lots of vocal layering going on in this one. Which I’m a fan of. Listening to the lyric, I’m in ‘grab life by the short and curlies’ mode. Into that. Again though, missing something. Annoying that. Don’t know what though, and wouldn’t know before Sunday.
This might be evidence of the ‘wanting the song to be something it isn’t’ syndrome which I may or may not have mentioned before. Danger here. Best to hide behind the TS@aW rock and enjoy the weekend. Eeek!
lyrics
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready to let go,
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready to explode.
Caught in a crossfire,Between what your heart wants,
And what your head needs to have.
You make a decision,
Get shot down in a heartbeat,
This fickle, fleeting life.
I won’t back down I won’t let this go,
This is my life till my blood runs cold,
I know, I know this feeling too well,
I know, I know this feeling too well.
I won’t back down,
I won’t let go,
This is my life,
Till blood runs cold.
There are crazy situations every hour of the day,
It is hard sometimes to stand up,
When every word you say is like a dagger held beside your heart,
You’d be crazy to be carefree.
This is a time when every notion is a flicker on the sun,
Well lit, but very hard to see,
Close your eyes before you cry your eyes out,
Close your eyes and sing along with me.
I won’t back down I won’t let this go,
This is my life till my blood runs cold,
I know, I know this feeling too well,
I know, I know this feeling too well.
I won’t back down,
I won’t let go,
This is my life,
Till blood runs cold.
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready to let go,
I am ready, I am ready, I am ready to explode.
I won’t back down I won’t let this go,
This is my life till my blood runs cold,
I know, I know this feeling too well,
I know, I know this feeling too well.
I won’t back down I won’t let this go,
This is my life till my blood runs cold,
I know, I know this feeling too well,
I know, I know this feeling too well.
