Daredevil Lyrics by James Gillespie

DAREDEVIL - EP

2024

[Verse 1]
Well, ever since I started breathing
I've had a fear of growing old
I've always loved the feeling
Of losing all control
But I'm not a teenage boy no more
And I should be going home
So pour me one more drink
Before I stumble down the road
See the girl I was gonna marry
Was the girl behind the bar
And the baby that she carried
Is why I play guitar
But I'm not a teenage boy no more
Who gambles with her heart
She gives me one more chance
I keep on taking it too far

[Chorus]
Daredevil, whеn you gonna wake up and try?
She ain't always gonna love a boy likе that
It's a matter of time
Before you sober up
Good luck, she's already said goodbye
Daredevil, when you gonna wake up and realise
It's the devil in you that put the tear in her eyes?

[Verse 2]
Well, it seems I've got a problem
I'm prepared to risk it all
I keep on climbing up a mountain
Just to see how hard I fall
And every time I open up
I'm slamming shut another door
And where she's building bridges
Well, I'm only building walls

[Chorus]
Daredevil, when you gonna wake up and try?
She ain't always gonna love a boy like that
It's a matter of time
Before you sober up
Good luck, she's already said goodbye
Daredevil, when you gonna wake up and realise
It's the devil in you that put the tears in her eyes? (Yeah)

[Bridge]
She gives me one more chance
And I lay that chance to waste
Hallelujah to the girl
Who can forgive my foolish ways
'Cause I'm not a teenage boy no more
There's moss upon this stone
She holds on to the dice
And I take the chance to roll

[Chorus]
Daredevil, when you gonna wake up and try?
She ain't always gonna love a boy like that
It's a matter of time
Before you sober up
Good luck, she's already said goodbye
Daredevil, when you gonna wake up and realise
It's the devil in you that puts the tears in her eyes?
Yeah, in her eyes
