A Shot In The Dark by Houston Calls
A Shot In The Dark lyrics
I�m leaving loves behind
While finding time to rhyme
Mistakes with what�s at stake
No, that�s just too contrived
Can I get a little taste of your lips so I feel alive?
Can you offer up the same uncertainty that I define?
Are you up for keeping in touch once a month or twice a
year?
Can you handle regret and a lack of will to persevere?
This apathy will haunt me over and over and over�
So when will I wake up?
Please pinch me I don�t feel a thing
I�ve got a hand of wish and one of chance
Don�t bother, it�s enough to get me through it
I close my eyes and roll a set of loaded dice, I�m sure
As convincing as a shot in the dark could be
I�ll keep doing what I love with a stab at integrity
I�m adding water to w(h)ine
Pretending I�m not that guy
I�m cracking jokes all the time
to cover up a steady decline
Can I get a little taste of your lips so I feel alive?
Can you offer up the same uncertainty that I define?
Are you up for keeping in touch once a month or twice a
year?
Can you handle regret and a lack of will to persevere?
This apathy will haunt me over and over and over�
So when will I wake up?
Please pinch me I don�t feel a thing
I�ve got a hand of wish and one of chance
Don�t bother, it�s enough to get me through it
I close my eyes and roll a set of loaded dice, I�m sure
As convincing as a shot in the dark could be
I�ll keep doing what I love with a stab at integrity
Leaving always gets the best of me when I can�t say
hello again
It�s just another way to remember
It�s just another way to forget
So when will I wake up?
Please pinch me I don�t feel a thing
I�ve got a hand of wish and one of chance
Don�t bother, it�s enough to get me through it
I close my eyes and roll a set of loaded dice, I�m sure
As convincing as a shot in the dark could be
I�ll keep doing, doing, doing what I love
