Dangerous game

Tennessee heat in a wood panel room

I put myself into his care again

In a high school chair for the visiting hour

From you of all people

Now he tells me to conjure you up

And so we meet again and again at the bottom of the garden

And I'm chasing a ghost all around the room

And now you're strung up on the ceiling

And it's you of all people

It's a dangerous game, to play with fire

For a brand-new mind

A dangerous game, a man on the wire

Get me out of my mind

Tied to the hope of another way through

It's chained at my ankles, it took away my shoes

Now I see the only way through is chained at the ankles

With you of all people

Get me out of my mind

Out of my mind

It's a dangerous game, to play with fire

For a brand-new mind

A dangerous game, it's a dangerous game

With you at my side

With you at my mind

A dangerous game

A dangerous game, a man on the wire

Get me out of my mind
