Take a breath,
take it deep
Calm yourself,
he says to me
If you play,
you play for keeps
Take the gun,
and count to three
I'm sweating now,
moving slow
No time to think,
my turn to go
And you can see
my heart beating
You can see it
through my chest
And I'm terrified
but I'm not leaving
Know that I must
pass this test
So just pull the trigger
Say a prayer to yourself
He says close your eyes
Sometimes it helps
And then I get
a scary thought
That he's here
means he's never lost
And you can see
my heart beating
You can see it
through my chest
And I'm terrified
but I'm not leaving
Know that I must
pass this test
So just pull the trigger
As my life flashes
before my eyes
I'm wondering will I
ever see another sunrise
So many won't get the
chance to say goodbye
But it's too late
to pick up the
value of my life
And you can see
my heart beating
You can see it
through my chest
And I'm terrified
but I'm not leaving
Know that I must
pass this test
And you can see
my heart beating
You can see it
through my chest
And I'm terrified
but I'm not leaving
Know that I must
pass this test
So just pull the trigger
