Lyrics
A black eye it won't lie
A black eye it can't hide
You can avoid, but once it arrives
A black eye takes a while to die
Some say, steer clear
and you'll be pleased to find it's safe
But in time
You will find what you left behind
Security is love for a fool
Security is like being in school
When you?re young, you have fun and take naps
then you wake up and grow up and you know it's just a trap
I won't let it be
and let it take over me
When I look back
I will know why my eye is black
Living dangerous but knowing what's right
Living dangerous with no need to fight
Taking chances but knowing the odds
Living dangerous puts you WITH THE GODS!!
So help me
I may fall once or twice
That is why
I won't cry about my black eye
Black eye (Repeat 3X)
