Lyrics

The city lights rush, but the air is so still.
I'm diving headfirst off this Ferris wheel.
Strike through the heart of the innocent let the sinners in.
They say open your eyes, why should I?
I know where I stand, rip cord be damned.

We smile as we go, put on a show,
'Cause the world loves watching us fall
It's a slippery slope, no one cares where it goes
They love the thrill of it all.

My fist I hold high so they can't see my face.
If they knew our names, it'd just get in the way.
While a falling star rarely impacts the earth, it burns up first.
You might be the one, so grab your gun,
I know it might hurt
Smile as you go.

Swallow your fear, it's the final frontier.
No, we may never return.
While they look to the sky we watch from on high.
We live while they only learn
Smile as we go, put on a show,
'Cause the world loves watching us fall
It's a slippery slope, I don't care where it goes
I love the thrill of it all.
