I've just been fired out

For laying down

For being lazy

I'd just be staring at the floor

And i can't recall the time

When all was fun

And nights were crazy

Now i'm pointed by your gun

And we danced 'til morning lights

Playing in the streets and standing right

And worst was nothing but a heartbreak

And we danced 'til morning lights

Pumping on our bloodstream smiling bright

It all seemed nothing but a joy tale

Oh sharp, sharpshooter

Don't put your eye on my way

Oh sharp, sharpshooter

I stay here howlin' out

Crying loud

I keep on waiting

For a veredict from god

My teeth they fall in dreams

So black and real

For guilty conscience

I just can't do it on my own

And we danced 'til morning lights

Playing in the streets and standing right

And worst was nothing but a heartbreak

And we danced 'til morning lights

Pumping on our bloodstream smiling bright

It all seemed nothing but a joy tale

Oh sharp, sharpshooter

Don't put you eye on my way

Oh sharp, sharpshooter

He's out behind the window

His eyes stare with no shame

If he goes means a job done

So i better make him stay

He's entering the kitchen

He's calling out my name

I better give him water

So i look i'm not to blame

A feature of condition

Remorse inside a man

This everlasting torture

Will i ever see its end?

He's watching from the distance

I'll get what i deserve

For laying down and wondering

Will i ever be ashamed?
