Breaker - Ten Seconds In lyrics

rate me

Out of the streetlights glare<br />

There's a slight stab of fear<br />

In his altered understanding<br />

It quickly disappears<br />

<br />

Can't spell electric<br />

But he feels it in the air<br />

Springing doors on darkened cages<br />

That swing open in his stare<br />

<br />

[Chorus:]<br />

It's alright<br />

On the street tonight, never realize<br />

Always someone harder<br />

Always someone just like you<br />

Always someone harder<br />

Till it's too late<br />

And you're ten seconds in<br />

<br />

Maybe down inside him<br />

There's some neglected fuse<br />

Some option long avoided<br />

A circuit seldom used<br />

<br />

With confrontation<br />

Someone you never dare<br />

Another life is less than zero<br />

Violence a life-long love affair<br />

<br />

[Chorus x2]<br />

<br />

Black cat hangin' on the corner<br />

Caught hangin' in the wrong<br />

Almost screaming for attention<br />

Must be well aware he don't belong<br />

<br />

Sweating hard, in for the kill<br />

Then something hits him like a train<br />

Across the alley, it's forgotten<br />

Just two more bullets in the rain
