Rooster – Joy Ride

When I wake and the sky seems to break,

And the bang in my head is my heart just trying to keep me alive,

Then I rise and the room starts to shake,

And I’m walking on glass trying to remember,

Trying to get straight when all I wanna do is cut back the tape,

Replay last night with you,

Feel what its like to flip out,

Be surrounded by sounds of the crowd,

Carry me away now,

Bridge:

I don’t know why, we’re in this situation,

And I don’t know how there’s something missing,

Chorus:

No point living when you don’t know you’re alive,

Follow you ‘cos only you take me up this high,

Don’t need no complications when I only want to fly,

Cos it’s beautiful just playing with you,

Take me on a joyride,

I like the way you abuse my mind,

Kiss me all the time, paranoid you’re gonna leave me behind,

Resonate like a bass when you pulling my strings even tighter,

Think I’m overheating,

Barely 19 but you know what I mean,

When I fail to describe this place where I’ve been living,

Trying to stay strong when you’re dragging me on,

With complete disregard for anything that’s wrong yeah,

Bridge:

Chorus:

Look at my face what have you done,

Do you see yourself in my reflection?

Tumbling down out of control,

Nothing to lose this is where it came from,

Follow you ‘cos only you could take me up this high,

Chorus
