Death Blinked First Songtext
von Stoneygate

I stared Death in the eye and Death stared back
I said, "Pardon me sir, you′re treading on my toes"
Death stood aside, and I turned and came back
So now I'm ready for anything Life could throw

I stared Death in the eye and Death blinked first
I felt the scorch of the furnace and I trod hot coals
Stared into the abyss but I did not fall
So now I′m ready for anything

Welcome to the new normal
Welcome to the new normal
Nothing you can try is going to shake me now
Nothing you can do is going to break me down
You can bring on your thunder and your lightning strikes
'Cause I've stared Death in the eye

I might look weak but I am carbon steel
The pressure of a trial changed how I see
Coal into a diamond - it′s a clear new view
I survived the ordeal and I can read your every move


Welcome to the new normal
Welcome to the new normal
Nothing you can try is going to shake me now
Nothing you can do is going to break me down
You can bring on your thunder and your lightning strikes
′Cause I've stared Death in the eye

Welcome to the new normal
Welcome to the new normal
Nothing you can try is going to shake me now
Nothing you can do is going to break me down
You can bring on your thunder and your lightning strikes
′Cause I've stared Death in the eye

Welcome to the new normal
Welcome to the new normal
Nothing you can try is going to shake me now
Nothing you can do is going to break me down
You can bring on your thunder and your lightning strikes
′Cause I've stared Death in the eye

I stared Death in the eye
I stared Death in the eye
I stared Death in the eye
I stared Death in the eye, eye
