You like to live life in the fast lane Where nobody can tell you Where to run to And you like to crash Where the lights no longer flash And they can't find you So far behind you But what will you do When your brakes give out And your gas runs low And your maps reroute What will you do when you can't find your way home? What will you do when your boat capsizes? Lifeboats sink and the high tide rises? Where will you go when you're out there on your own? Let me throw you a lifeline Let me throw you a lifeline Let me throw you a lifeline Let me throw you a lifeline Lifeline, lifeline You like to live life in the fast lane On the right track on the wrong train On the left side of the right brain And on the outside of the insane And I can't keep on chasing you No I can't keep on chasing you But what will you do When your lungs give out And you scream her name And she's not around? What will you do when you can't find your way home? What will you do When your heart rate rises? Give it all up just to feel alive It's all we can do just to make it on our own So let me throw you a lifeline Let me throw you a lifeline Let me throw you a lifeline Let me throw you a lifeline Lifeline, lifeline And every sign tells you to turn right back But you trust your mind And it's stuck in this race track And every time you try to turn it around... They're catching up to you They're catching up to you They're catching up to you They're catching up to you I could throw you a lifeline I could throw you a lifeline I could throw you a lifeline I could throw you a lifeline If you'd just let me try
