I’ve had hopes in something overrated

I have loved and underestimated

I don’t want to end up as a ghost

But what I’ve experienced have scarred me more than most

 

You’re the star of the masquerade

I’m the joker into black I fade

 

I may not have a future

But I don’t want to die

Fund a war or feed the poor

Do anything you like

One bullet left in the gun

One more time around

Maybe I’ll get a second shot

At life or whatever the lord has in mind

 

Your recommendation

Is my consideration

But don’t think I’ll ever lay

Another brick in your foundation

 

A shot to the head

Would be nothing compared to all the things you said

 

I may not have a future

But I don’t want to die

Fund a war or feed the poor

Do anything you like

One bullet left in the gun

One more time around

Maybe I’ll get a second shot

At life or whatever the lord has in mind

 

I may not have a future

But I don’t want to die

Fund a war or feed the poor

Do anything you like

One bullet left in the gun

One more time around

Maybe I’ll get a second shot

At life or whatever the lord has in mind
