[Verse 1]
Are you afraid to die, that
There's no afterlife?
Said it loud and I told you twice
Don't think about the time
[Refrain]
Are you thinking straight?
Your words are fast, but your mind is late
Don't control a long-awaited fate
Feel alone in a crowded room
Ah, think I'll be leaving soon
Ah, and I've got some breaking news
I am so confused
[Pre-Chorus]
Under pressure I think
Under numbers I sink
Under pressure under pressure
Under pressure I sink
[Chorus]
Counting the days 'til I run away
Counting the days 'til, 'til I run away
Counting the days and the nights I stay
Oh, waiting is a game I like to play
[Verse 2]
Too scared of surprise
Won't dare to roll the dice
Stay still and pay the price
Won't die in paradise
No help from anyone
I bet you're having fun
Silence can weigh you down
Lethal as a gun
[Pre-Chorus]
Under pressure I think
Under numbers I sink
Under pressure, under pressure
Under pressure I sink
[Chorus]
(Counting the days)
Counting the days 'til I run away
Counting the days 'til, 'til I run away
Counting the days and the nights I stay
Oh, waiting is a game I like to play
[Bridge]
I like to wait
And I like to wait
Are you afraid to die?
Like there's no afterlife?
Said it loud and I told you twice
Don't think about the time
[Chorus]
Counting the days 'til I run away
Counting the days 'til, 'til I run away
Counting the days and the nights I stay
Oh, waiting is a game I like to play
[Outro]
I like to play
I like to play
I like to wait
And I like to play
