Eagle-eye cherry lyrics death defied lyrics

He only thought he was going for the thrill of a ride

 Wasn't in the play to be gone for long

 But he keeps looking back over his shoulder

 He knows that something might go wrong

 The ride it ain't smooth that is for sure

 Strange mood what is the cure

 He's got that feeling of impending doom

 Like being trapped in a casket inside a tomb

 

 CHORUS:

 Death defied by will

 Like a drug that doesn't kill

 Boy you gotta learn what's true

 Death defied by will

 Like a drug that doesn't kill

 The joke is on you

 You ought to know better

 You ought to know better

 

 He is determined to outsmart this snake

 With conviction he will stand his ground

 Feeling invincible like death itself

 But his immortality won't be found

 What should he say at his own wake

 That he refuses to fulfill his fate

 He doesn't know that this is his last drive

 On the road we call alive

 

 CHORUS

 

 Now the time has come

 You can't play around

 And you ought to know

 You ought to know better

 You ought to know better

 

 CHORUS
