My hero called me today
Said I don't think that I can live this way
Been hitting it one to one
I've introduced this temple to this gun
And I don't know how to feel
Is it me or is it real?
How many winners wanna fail?
How many souls are now for sale?
How many coffins need a nail?
How many thumbs are on the scale?
How many kids are out on bail?
The old man told me a story
Not unlike when you were boys and girls
His brand of misery keeps spinnin' round and round this
Big old world
And I don't know how to feel
Is it me or is it real?
How many winners wanna fail?
How many souls are now for sale?
How many coffins need a nail?
How many thumbs are on the scale?
How many kids are out on bail?
