Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it)

(Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)

Or pull and see how much we can undo

(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it)

On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best

Depending on where you're standing and how much breath is in your chest

If it came down to it, would you hightail home and hide

Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?

At the heart of it all, that innermost, your fiery core

There's an amassing armor, it's building you into a bore

Life's a match in a gas tank, don't ever mourn the ebbing tide

Just dance on fire and enjoy the ride

Well, hey!
