Borderline Songtext
von Nico Collins

I look past all the flashing lights
Drive through, ignore the warning signs
When things blow up I close my eyes
And shake it off as if it′s justified

Wash the shame down with another drink
I get high I don't wanna overthink
My body′s shaking, my head is weak
But I'm too afraid to leave
Life goes on new day same show
'Cuz if I change I could feel more low
So I do another encore, one more when it hurts the most

Calling it quits I don′t wanna admit
That I′m, that I'm
Stuck in the cracks and I′m going down fast tonight, tonight
Calling it quits when I gotta make up
My mind, my mind
No going back 'cause I′m already on the borderline


I'm in purgatory
Middle of the story
Pulling back and forth from surrender and glory
All the pressure internally
It could very well be the death of me

Caught up in the middle
Center of the limbo
Seeing through the shards of a broken window
If the looking glass disagrees
It could very well be the death of me

Calling it quits I don′t wanna admit
That I'm, that I'm
Stuck in the cracks and I′m going down fast tonight, tonight
Calling it quits when I gotta make up
My mind, my mind
No going back ′cause I'm already on the borderline


Calling it quits, I don′t wanna admit
I'm too far gone but I′ll never forget
What it feels like being young and dumb
Wondering who I'd become I don′t know man
Losing all ambition
The angel on my right no I never listened
The voice in my left ear made the decisions
I'll the pay the price now 'cause I get what I′m givin′
(Get what I'm givin′)

Calling it quits, I don't wanna admit
That I′m, that I'm
Stuck in the cracks and I′m going down fast tonight, tonight
Calling it quits when I gotta make up
My mind, my mind (I gotta make up my mind)
No going back 'cause I'm already on the borderline

I look past all the flashing lights
(It could very well be the death of me)
Drive through ignore the warning signs
(It could very well be the death of me)
When things blow up I close my eyes (I′m left with what I am)
No going back ′cause I'm already on the borderline
