Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Counted down from ten to one
Faster than a firefly
Callin' out to everyone
Are you dead or alive?
[Verse 2]
Quicker than the curious
And brighter than a meteor
Never knowing who to trust
Can make me insecure
[Verse 3]
Let me clear my throat
Let me catch my breath
Let my heart bleed out
Till there's nothing left
[Verse 4]
It's my day to be brilliant
It's my day to be brilliant
[Verse 5]
Counted down from ten to one
Faster than a hurricane
Callin' out to everyone
Are you mad or insane?
[Verse 6]
Quicker when you're curious
And better once you realize
Finding someone you can trust
Gets results, check your pulse
[Verse 7]
Let me clear my throat
Let me catch my breath
Let my heart bleed out
Till there's nothing left
[Verse 8]
It's my day to be brilliant
It's my day to be brilliant
[Verse 9]
Say it isn't one of us
The beaten and the furious
Been chastised, analyzed
For the very last time
[Verse 10]
It's all the same, believe it or not
But this ain't a game (And I'll never stop)
So you better run for your life
[Verse 11]
Let me clear my throat
Let me catch my breath
Let my heart bleed out
Till there's nothing left
[Verse 12]
It's my day to be brilliant
It's my day to be brilliant
[Verse 13]
To whom it may concern
I won't crash and burn
Burn
Burn
I won't crash and
[Verse 14]
Let me clear my throat
Let me catch my breath
Let my heart bleed out
Till there's nothing left
It's my day to be brilliant
It's my day to be brilliant
[Verse 15]
As the world collides and I fight for you
As I crash and burn like I just don't care
It's my day to be brilliant
It's my day to be brilliant
[Verse 16]
Tearing down the one
Quicker when you carry us
Say it if you're one of us
The beaten and the furious
Are you mad or insane?
Mad or insane?
Are you mad or insane?
You better run for your life
[Verse 17]
It's my day to be brilliant
It's my day to be brilliant
