lyrics

sullen morning, I reload my gun
eye on the prize, beggars can't be choosers
you're sittin' high, shittin' bricks, as we brace ourselves
you're placing bets, making fists, making nothing at all
solemnly swear a pretty penny to put you down
solemnly swear to tell the truth, so where's the truth?

my friend, we've been doing this a long, long time
don't you know we'll be doing this is a long, long time?

one day your gaze may shift, till then I'll see you in hell

we'll laugh, rejoice, with roofs raised over our heads,
counting down days until we find rest at last
