RECKLESS
Lyrics by Edward Rogers
Music by J-F Vergel

VERSE 1
I was careless - let my world slip by.
Burnt too many candles waiting for the next alibi.
Led a golden life – never knew what side was up.
Sometimes good, sometimes so bad.
Two Jokers in a pack.
The Devil found a way to pay me back.
Knew when to plan his attack.
Got all dressed up in black.
In a game I didn’t know what side was up.
He just laughed and he drank from a champagne cup.

VERSE 2
Didn’t expect my world to fade away.
Wasn’t aware of how fast he could betray.
Nothing left… but wait for him to make his play.
But I knew results could only go his way.
He controlled the wheel come judgment day.
Counted all the cards… Results could only go one way.
No turning back; too late to pray.
His power was on full display.

CHORUS
Cause I’ve been reckless - reckless all my life.
Cause I’ve been reckless - cuts just like a knife.
Cause I’ve been reckless - reckless all my life.
Cause I’ve been reckless - cuts with a knife.

VERSE 3
Now I’m just sitting here thinking I was child’s play.
Still didn’t know what to do cause I really lost the way.
Should have known better than to stray
Cause the Devil knew it was gonna be his very good day.
Two Jokers in a pack.
The Devil found a way to pay me back.
Knew how to plan his attack.
Got dressed up all - all in black.
In a game I didn’t know my time was up. Yeah.
He just laughed and he drank from his champagne cup.

CHORUS
Cause I’ve been reckless - reckless all my life.
Cause I’ve been reckless - cuts just like a knife.
Cause I’ve been reckless - reckless all my life.
Cause I’ve been reckless – cutting me with a knife.
