Lucky One

Well soon enough you'll try to take
every word I'll ever try to say
so I won't wait
Instead I'll take you out like police before a robbery
try your best to bring your worst
and on my signal boys we'll take you down just like we rehearsed
you're always late, all big, too self assured, and sure that someone else will take all the blame
and you're the one that's calling me
and so I'll take all I've learned from pain and pleasure
take every preventive measure
should I die in battle I'll still be saved
so take me on, and try to rip my heart out
should I be saved? well I'll still be the Lucky One
I won't bow, you'll be hearing my best battle cry
should I bleed out, at least I've had a good run
I took it out, I took everything, I could ever need
And I've never seen I'm unafraid, what they'll do to me, what the children see,
along the way, there ought to be a chance to breath,
where I can stand up for whatever I need, before I'm on my way
and so I'll take all I've learned from pain and pleasure
take every preventive measure
should I die in battle I'll still be saved
so take me on, and try to rip my heart out
should I be saved? well I'll still be the Lucky One
I won't bow, you'll be hearing my best battle cry
should I bleed out, at least I've had a good run
Well soon enough, you'll try to take
every word, I've ever tried to say
and so I'll take all I've learned from pain and pleasure
take every preventive measure
should I die in battle I'll still be saved
so take me on, and try to rip my heart out
should I be saved? well I'll still be the Lucky One
I won't bow, you'll be hearing my best battle cry
should I bleed out, at least I've had a good run
