Lyrics

[00:16.73] Call me a joker, call me a fool
[00:20.04] Right at this moment I'm totally cool
[00:23.79] Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife
[00:27.42] I feel like I'm in the prime of my life
[00:31.35] Sometimes it feels like I'm going too fast
[00:35.10] I don't know how long this feeling will last
[00:38.92] Maybe it's only tonight
[00:41.92] Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
[00:49.42] Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
[00:57.04] And if I stand or I fall
[01:01.54] It's all or nothing at all
[01:04.61] Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
[01:12.92] Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm shot
[01:16.54] Sometimes I don't know how much more I've got
[01:20.42] Maybe I'm headed over the hill
[01:24.17] Maybe I've set myself up for the kill
[01:27.92] Tell me how much do you think you can take
[01:31.73] Until the heart in you is starting to break?
[01:35.48] Sometimes it feels like it will
[01:38.48] Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
[01:46.04] Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
[01:53.79] You can be sure when I'm gone
[01:58.30] I won't be out there too long
[02:01.11] Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
[02:08.99]
[02:10.29] Out of the darkness, into the light
[02:13.24] Leaving the scene of the crime
[02:16.85] Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time
[02:20.98] Sometimes I lie awake, night after night
[02:28.36] Coming apart at the seams
[02:32.17] Eager to please, ready to fight
[02:35.79] Why do I go to extremes?
[02:44.57]
[02:54.27] Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
[03:10.06] Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens
[03:25.25] And if I stand or I fall
[03:29.07] It's all or nothing at all
[03:32.43] Darling I don't know why I go to extremes
