Please don't believe
Things that just don't matter
Can't hide what you can't see
Behind the worn out laughter
Sometimes I smoke and drink too much
And my brother sure can write
The money it ain't nothing, oh no
When you cash in a heart full of lies
You got to duck before before the bullets fly
And laugh alone when the wind starts to cry
When you're on empty, you're on borrowed time
Just duck before the bullets fly
Sometimes I can't remember
What is is I wanna forget
Another heart broken mama (Oh no)
The name on a bullet (Oh yeah yeah)
Is it the shade of my greed
Or a flaw in my pride (Yeah)
I just wanna succeed (Please)
For once in my life (Once in my life)
You got to duck before before the bullets fly
And laugh alone when the wind starts to cry
When you're on empty, you're on borrowed time
Just duck before the bullets fly
I've been raised on belief (Yeah)
On things that just don't matter (Yeah)
And the shade of my greed
(The shade of my greed) (Yeah)
Sheds light on a life filled with worn out laughter
You got to duck before before the bullets fly
And laugh alone when the wind starts to cry
When you're on empty, you're on borrowed time
Just duck before the bullets fly
You got to duck before before the bullets fly
And laugh alone when the wind starts to cry
When you're on empty, you're on borrowed time
Just duck before the bullets fly
You've got to duck
