[Verse 1]
Holding my breath as I'm counting down from three
Asking myself am I where I want to be?
Drowning in lights at the touch of a celebrity
But there's something inside and it's weighing down on me
[Refrain]
I see all the things that I used to dream and now they're within my reach
Some say thats a good thing, depends on what you're wishing
The further I go it's not what it seems, the truth that they often preach
But my heart is slightly shifting, everytime I hear them clapping
[Pre-Chorus]
If I take it fast, will you learn to take it slow?
'Cause the world don't stop, it only wants more and more
[Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (Straight into the ring)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (My dreams are what I breath)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (At times when I see red)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (I break promises I've kept)
[Verse 2]
Holding on tight to the things that brought me here
Trying to let go as I face up to my fears
I'm right on the edge like a swinging chanderlier
But it all melts away when I hear the people cheer
[Refrain]
I feel all the things that I used to feel but now they begun to fade
Some say that's a bad thing, depends on where you're going
The harder I try, the rules don't apply, there's no time to be afraid
Now my heart has started raging and the fire will be blazing
[Pre-Chorus]
If I take it fast, will you learn to take it slow?
'Cause if we don't stop, we'll only want more and more
[Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (Straight into the ring)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (My dreams are what I breath)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (At times when I see red)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (I break promises I've kept)
[Bridge]
The only thing they want from me
Is repetition and some novelty (Novelty)
The only thing they ask of me
Is to find a new reality (Reality)
They dangle the prize, right in front of my eyes
And as I try to cut the tie, suprise, suprise
They lie, they lie and they hypnotise
But there are things that I won't sacrifice
[Pre-Chorus]
If I take it fast, will you learn to take it slow?
'Cause if I don't stop, then I'll only want more and more
(La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la)
[Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (Straight into the ring)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (My dreams are what I breath)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (At times when I see red)
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la (I break promises I've kept)
