Keep on upping the stakes,
Every single time,
Search for a greater reward,
And pay a greater fine,
You won't stop.
Don't know where to draw the line,
What once was claimed as yours,
I've now claimed as mine.
How far will you go?
Can you afford to risk it all yeah,
You're out of control,
Can you survive the fall?
Take it further each time,
What's enough to make it end my friend,
You keep saying you're fine,
But you've mistaken every word I've ever said.
You're life's smoke and mirrors,
Full of parlour tricks,
And you'd do anything my baby,
Just to get your fix,
And all that you were,
Has gone so quick,
And nobody knows,
Just how much you have made me sick.
How far will you go?
Can you afford to risk it all yeah,
You're out of control,
Can you survive the fall?
Take it further each time,
What's enough to make it end my friend,
You keep saying you're fine,
But you've mistaken ever word I've ever said.
Try to escape,
But you don't have the key,
Now even in your mind,
You're the absentee,
And as you draw your breath,
You're getting closer to me,
But watch your step, a leap of faith and just let it be.
How far will you go?
You're out of control?
Keep on saying you're fine.
How far will you go?
