step on the brakes

well, hi there life
what do you have in store for me today
is it finally time
for having things go my way
here I am
long time waiting for you
I'm in a jam
I don't have a clue

         but life
         I'm hoping you're on my side
         I mean, I
         I'm ready to take that ride
         out on dead man's curve
         watch out, man, just don't swerve
         I got what it takes
         but please step on the brakes

yeah, hey there life
I hope you take it easy on me
I know I lied
every time I claimed to be free
now I'm here
long time waiting for you
I could disappear
but I don't want to

         but life
         I'm hoping you're on my side
         I mean, I
         I'm ready to take that ride
         out on dead man's curve
         watch out, man, just don't swerve
         I got what it takes
         but please step on the brakes
