lyrics

Throw a dart at the map
In a hurry no time to pack
No plan on turning back
It's not inside my nature
I say go for broke
compete with every bloke
Found my masterstroke
And I'll wrestle with the creature

But I am moving still
Where's that confounded thrill
Lost my instinct to kill
But gained a new perspective
I want satisfaction
Only missing by a fraction
Wish I could see your reaction
When I can be selective

I know that I have been here before
Found out exactly how I should live
But now and then
I need to know
I'm sure if you just show me that door
I'll see exactly what I have missed
It's nothing I can't recreate
But it's killing me that I'm killing you

Hey Doc, X marks the spot
You feel it when the street gets hot
Going away, gonna sail my yacht
Gonna ride into the sunset
Take off on crusade
Find out how the money's made
Funny how we only get paid
with a dangerous investment

Roses for the queen
Backstage of my dream
I wrote that movie scene
And this is how it goes now
TV, you're telling lies
Low key he's playing both sides
Money talks and mothers cry
But I can overthrow now

I know that I have been here before
Found out exactly how I should live
But now and then
I need to know
I'm sure if you just show me that door
I'll see exactly what I have missed
It's nothing I can't recreate
But it's killing me that I'm killing you

(I know that I have been here before)
(been here before)
(I know that I have been here before)
(been here before)
(I know that I have been here before)
(been here before)
(I know that I have been here before)
(been here before)
