Lyrics

Dangerous Things

It was a private conversation
It was electric in the air
It was a harmless little wager
It was a harmless little dare
There were traces of explosives
On the surface of our minds
We were walking on a high wire
With a net below the line

Let your hair down
Let yourself go
Let your guard down
Let yourself go

If you’re tryin’ to wake up your mind
With a taste of what pure adrenaline brings
Walkin’ on a wire dancing next to a fire
In a safe place to do dangerous things

There’s a feeling coming over
As we head into twilight
We’re lighting all the fuses
As the adrenachrome ignites
See the stars up above us
And the clouds down below
We’re weightless in a free fall
Spinning in vertigo

Let your hair down
Let yourself go
Let your guard down
Let yourself go

If you’re tryin’ to wake up your mind
With a taste of what pure adrenaline brings
Walkin’ on a wire dancing next to a fire
In a safe place to do dangerous things
