[Verse 1: Sharon den Adel & Howard Jones]
I know I won't change, I have tried
Was feeling so caged, hands tied
I can't find anything feeling so right
It's blinding all
The reaper is close, see death smile
A matter of time, can't deny
I won't turn around, 'round, 'round
This destiny's mine

[Pre-Chorus: Sharon den Adel]
The countdown has begun
The walls are falling down
My life is on the line
But freedom is mine

[Chorus: Sharon den Adel & Howard Jones]
It's dangerous to sacrifice
It makes your blood run to throw the dice
It's dangerous, it's what you're like
It's what you'll die for to live this life
We're going on and we'll never stop
We're going on 'til our worlds collide
It's dangerous, so dangerous, dangerous

[Verse 2: Sharon den Adel & Howard Jones]
I know it's not safe, close my eyes
I search for the edge of Earth
'Cause that's the only place I'll ever find
That makes me whole
A thief in the night, out of sight
It's out there waiting to ignite
The fever will rise, rise, rise
Taking over my mind
