VERSE 1

Someone called me from across the ocean 

to find a weak link in my devotion 

They can shoot hot knives a' down the line 

I just slam it down every time 

 

CHORUS 

I got the telephone jammed in my ear 

They're still talking but I don't hear 

Oh don't defend when my heart starts to attack 

we can face the danger baby no holding back 

there's no holding back 

 

VERSE 2 

I can't swear we'll never get caught 

I got scars all over my pass-port 

but we can't give in to every whim and fancy 

coming to crunches is always chancey 

 

CHORUS 2 

I get it all being rammed down my ear 

I'm still talking but I don't hear 

Oh don't defend when my heart starts to attack 

we can face the danger baby no holding back 

and there's no holding back 

 

DBRIDGE 

When I tell the truth it's like pulling a tooth 

I don't know what I've let myself in for 

My insides are black from years of being slack 

but we can face the danger and we won't hold back 

 

CHORUS 3 

I get it all being rammed down my ear 

I'm still shaking but not with fear 

Oh don't defend when my heart starts to attack 

we can face the danger 

we can face the danger 

and we won't hold back 

baby there's no holding back 

baby there's no holding back 

 

(Repeat and ad lib on chords to fade).
