Lyrics
No, I don't wanna sound like I'm paranoid
But there's something out there we can't quite avoid
There's a dark cloud creepin' on a sunny day
Like a malevolent entity headin' our way
And so I watch myself, and keep a sharp eye on everyone else
It's such a dangerous world
Where hearts lie broken and dreams get stolen away
It's such a dangerous world
Where time slips by in the blink of an eye
And there just ain't no escape...from such a dangerous world
It's hiding in the shadows; you'll never see its face
So keep your fingers crossed, asleep or wide awake
Whatever you're doing to ward away the storm
You know the rain keeps comin', no, it won't be long
You better watch your step, and keep a rabbit's foot next to your bed
It's such a dangerous world
Where love keeps fading and hope's dissipating away
It's such a dangerous world
Where nobody's safe from the womb to the grave
And everybody's scared to play...in such a dangerous world
Who can you trust in a place like this
When you can't even trust yourself to resist
The temptation, the sensation
It's total devastation.... so very dangerous
You know that you can call it karma of the darkest kind
It can lead you astray and even play with your mind
It sneeks up on you like a sniper's sights
And you won't even know it's there until it finally bites
And I believe I'm in need of an angel to protect me...don't forsake me...ya gotta save me
From such a dangerous world
Where hearts lie broken and dreams get stolen away
It's such a dangerous world
Where time slips by in the blink of an eye
And everybody's so afraid...of such a dangerous world
Tomorrow, what will be if there's no one there to fend for me
Tomorrow, wait and see, what will be if there's no one there to fend for me
