In the middle of a gun fight
In the center of a restaurant
They say, "Come with your arms raised high!"
Well they're never gonna get me,
And like a bullet through a flock of doves
To wage this war against your faith in me
Your life
Will never be the same.
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer
Say a prayer!

[Chorus]
Now! But I can't
And I don't know
How we're just two men as God had made us,
Well I can't
Well I can't
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this
Pain in my heart for your dying wish
I kiss your lips again.

They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost,
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups (in drag)
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself...am I losing myself?!
I miss my mom!
Will they give me the chair?,
A lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare
Ah, nobody knows all the trouble I've seen!

[Chorus]

To your room...
What they ask of you
Will make you want to say, "So long..."
Well, I don't remember,
Why remember...YOU?!

Do you have the keys to the hotel?!
'Cause Im gonna string this motherf**ker on fire! (FIRE!)

Life is but a dream for the dead,
And well I, I won't go down by myself,
But I'll go down with my friends.
Now now now now...now now now...now now now!

ohh! ohh! ohh! ohh! ohh! ohh!
