Call me a joker, call me a fool. Right at this moment I'm totally
cool.
Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife. I feel like I'm in the prime of my
life.
Sometimes it feels like I'm going 2 fast/I don't know how long this feeling
will last.
Maybe it's only tonite. Darling I don't know why I go to ex-
tremes. Too high or too low there ain't no in be-
weens. And if I stand or I fall,
it's all or nothing at all. Darling I don't know why I go to ex-
tremes. Sometimes I'm tired, sometimes I'm
shot.
Sometimes I don't know how much more I've got/Maybe I'm headed over the
hill.
Maybe I've set myself up for the kill. Tell me how much do u think u can
take.
until the heart in u is starting to break?/Sometimes it feels like it will.
Darling, I
don't know why I go to extremes. Too high or
too low there ain't now in-betweens. You can be
sure when I'm gone, I won't be out there too long.
Darling,
I don't know why I go to extremes.
Out of the darkness, into the light, leaving the scene of the crime.
Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time.
Sometimes I lie awake night after night, coming apart at the seams.
Eager to please, ready to fight. Why do I go to extremes.
]
And if I
stand, or I fall it's all or nothing at all. Darling
I
don't know why I go to extremes. No, I
don't know why I go to extremes. Too high or
too low, there ain't no in-betweens. You can be
sure when I'm gone I won't be out there too long. Darling,
I
don't know why I go to extremes.
I don't know why, I don't know
why!
I don't know why. I don't know
why!
