it was something you said about the way it goes

that was making me think, "i'm jamming the controls"

i need something to help me see

how fast i'm moving now

i can see it all clear, but i don't know why

'cuz i know in my mind, i've got to try my luck

i've got nothing left to lose

now i'm watching my whole life flash before my eyes



i can picture myself on the edge of a desert plain

it's the sound of my voice

through the force of the wind and rain

as i open my eyes i can now see the sky transform

i'm looking into the eye of the electric storm



i've got cranked into overdrive

that's all that's keeping me alive

i need more than couple thousand volts

to keep the thunder rolling now

i'm hoping these clouds won't dissipate

and i'm praying to god that it's not too late

i've got to make my way up to the top

to the place where the lightening bolts

come crashing down



now i'm standing up tall

with my hands reaching towards the sky

i'll be searching for something more until the day i die

the rain on my face feels cold but the wind is warm
