When You'Ve Met Your Match
When you've met your match
there is nothing you can do
but stare them in their eyes
and dare them to attack
Your frantically beating heart
is the only answer you can
manage to send them back
You play it cool on the outside
But in the back of your mind
you know that your finished
Just one look in their direction
causes massive leakage and
your hearts resolve to diminish
