Ahead
She pulls out a deck of cards
Shows me how she talks to stars
Says, "Dammit, ours might be crossed"
Oh no, it's such a shame
To go and put out a twin flame
Hadn't planned to let you get away
We're runnin' out of sky-line
Different signs to hide behind
And I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna wait for the next life
So baby come in here and get your hands dirty
Pick a fight, roll up those pretty sleeves
'Cause I thought this was up to you and me
I never knew you to play it safe
If you want it easy, just let it break
But what if we take one more step instead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
Baby girl, it's all bullshit
Romeo was a stupid kid
You ain't backin' out like Juliet did
If we're scared, then we probably should
If it's deep enough, we'll be good
Are we going off your count or mine?
Hold your breath for one last time
Baby come in here and get your hands dirty
Pick a fight, roll up those pretty sleeves
'Cause I thought this was up to you and me
I never knew you to play it safe
If you want it easy, just let it break
But what if we take one more step instead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
I don't wanna wait for the next life
Not if we can get it right this time
I don't wanna wait for the next life
Not if we can it right this time
Baby come in here and get your hands dirty
Pick a fight, roll up those pretty sleeves
'Cause I thought this was up to you and me
I never knew you to play it safe
If you want it easy, just let it break (don't let it break)
But what if we took one more step instead?
Yeah, what if we take one more step instead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
Shows me how she talks to stars
Says, "Dammit, ours might be crossed"
Oh no, it's such a shame
To go and put out a twin flame
Hadn't planned to let you get away
We're runnin' out of sky-line
Different signs to hide behind
And I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna wait for the next life
So baby come in here and get your hands dirty
Pick a fight, roll up those pretty sleeves
'Cause I thought this was up to you and me
I never knew you to play it safe
If you want it easy, just let it break
But what if we take one more step instead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
Baby girl, it's all bullshit
Romeo was a stupid kid
You ain't backin' out like Juliet did
If we're scared, then we probably should
If it's deep enough, we'll be good
Are we going off your count or mine?
Hold your breath for one last time
Baby come in here and get your hands dirty
Pick a fight, roll up those pretty sleeves
'Cause I thought this was up to you and me
I never knew you to play it safe
If you want it easy, just let it break
But what if we take one more step instead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
I don't wanna wait for the next life
Not if we can get it right this time
I don't wanna wait for the next life
Not if we can it right this time
Baby come in here and get your hands dirty
Pick a fight, roll up those pretty sleeves
'Cause I thought this was up to you and me
I never knew you to play it safe
If you want it easy, just let it break (don't let it break)
But what if we took one more step instead?
Yeah, what if we take one more step instead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
Why quit when we're ahead?
