Reckless (Live At Wembley, UK / 2012)

[Verse 1]
I've been trying to make sense
I've been shouting under my breath
How's any of this in my interest?
When you sold me out
I must've not got the cheque
Your lust is a lie but it comes as no surprise
Time after time you go right past the line
I do my best to
To make amends with you
But I just can't see the end

[Chorus]
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless and you're defenseless

[Verse 2]
Isn't it funny how
Those black clouds follow you around?
It's karma smiling down
Just let me know when it's in town
You act like the world owes you a favor
You want it all but you don't like the taste oh
You've been throwing bricks at my window
Like there's no better way to say 'hello'
Hello?

[Chorus]
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless and you're defenseless

[Post-Chorus]
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had

[Bridge]
I'm the devil on your shoulder
I'm the conscious in your mind
I'm the feeling that you
You cannot hide
I'm the devil on your shoulder
Telling you that love is blind
It's ok when it's hiding in disguise
Your loose lips let
Let words slide
You spend too much
Time talking about my life
Stories you will spin
Just for a power trip
It's safe to say that I am not into it
In the picture, you are not
Someone else is in your spot
This is the result of people moving on
Good luck with killing time
You won't be killing mine
I'll do my best to always be on your mind, mind
I never once said I didn't mean this
I can't wait to see how this one pans out
You are the first to question my achievements
But that's alright
My dreams I've been living

[Chorus]
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless with a capital– lets go
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless with a capital R
Don't hold your breath
I'm not losing sleep over you
I'm Mr. Reckless and you're defenseless

[Post-Chorus]
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
The best you never had
