Accuracy Lyrics
[Intro]
Cherish this moment, feel safe
[Verse 1]
We sit in the same room, side by side
I give you the wrong lines, feed you
[Chorus]
Accuracy
Accuracy
[Verse 2]
Look into my eyes, we both smile
Can kill you without trying
[Chorus]
That's accuracy
Accuracy
Accuracy
[Bridge]
An observer's refrain
[Chorus]
Accuracy
Accuracy
Cherish this moment, feel safe
[Verse 1]
We sit in the same room, side by side
I give you the wrong lines, feed you
[Chorus]
Accuracy
Accuracy
[Verse 2]
Look into my eyes, we both smile
Can kill you without trying
[Chorus]
That's accuracy
Accuracy
Accuracy
[Bridge]
An observer's refrain
[Chorus]
Accuracy
Accuracy
