All the stories we've been told of kings and days of old

Living on a thin line, living this way, each day's a dream

What am I, what are we supposed to do?

What we couldn't do, or what we wouldn't do, disappoint but does it matter?

           C                   G
Does it matter much, does it matter much to you?

          D
Does it ever really matter? Yes, it really really matters!

Is there nothing we can say or do?

 Am                       G                          C
Blame the future on the past, always lost in bloody guts
