[verse a]
Mama put the gun in my hand
Said it’s my only defense from the wilds of the wasteland
As I set out alone I followed my own wisdom
Set my sights on the bear in San Francisco
[build]
Where I found a new kind of home
Sarah and Mary our baby girl
But that’s the thing about happiness
You take it for granted ‘till it’s dead
[verse b]
I should’ve known from our moment through the glass
That I should’ve put that bullet in your head
The institution of this chaotic game
The sole survivor on a persistent chase
[interlude]
I took my revenge and my grief carried me eastward
Not a job to dirty for a man with nothing left to lose
I stumbled across this untimely fate and now we reach this ending
And I’ve been waiting for you
[outro]
We both know how this must end
Are you ready?
We both know how this must end
Are you ready?
