Call me a joker, call me a fool
Right at this moment I'm totally 1
Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife
I feel like I'm in the prime of my life

Sometimes it feels 2 I'm going too fast
I don't know how long this feeling 3 last
Maybe it's only tonight

Darling, I don't know why I go to extremes
Too 4 or too low there ain't no in-betweens
And if I stand or I 5
It's all or nothing at all
Darling, I don't know why I go to extremes

Sometimes I'm tired, 6 I'm shot
Sometimes I don't know how much more I got
Maybe I'm headed over the 7
Maybe I've set myself up for the kill

Tell me how much do you 8 you can take
Until the heart in you is starting to 9 ?
Sometimes it feels like it will

Darling, 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

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
Out of the darkness, into the light
Either I'm wrong or perfectly right
