Living my life on the high wire has taken its toll
Deep in my heart there's a wild fire that's taken control
And now the shadows are forming behind my eyes
Clutching at promises that never materialise
There's another way
There's another way, yeah
My problems shrink to a whisper when I'm in the grips
Of this unholy religion erasing my lips
Crawling the streets as the city sleeps like a motherless child
One of these days I'm going to find my feet and I'm leaving this life
Gonna paint my silhouette in a murder black corvette
With the skyline of the city
Gonna trade all of my regrets for a murder black corvette
Gonna ride right out of this city, if the fight don't kill me
Under this rusty old bonnet beats a pure heart
There's love in this life if you want it, just reach in the dark
I want my blue collar romance on which I can depend
Wrapped in the arms of a slow dance at the weekend
Gonna paint my silhouette in a murder black corvette
With the skyline of the city
Gonna trade all of my regrets for a murder black corvette
Gonna ride right out of this city, if the fight don't kill me
Gonna paint my silhouette in a murder black corvette
With the skyline of the city
Gonna trade all of my regrets for a murder black corvette
Gonna ride right out of this city, if the fight don't kill me
And now the shadows are forming
Take it back
