Well do you know about someone
searching for gold, on the run
from a crazy world
Who came looking for war and
maybe a little bit more but
she don't go by that name
Six figure fun, number one
Bugatti shoes like the sun
burning in her eyes
She came looking for war and
maybe a little bit more but
she don't go by that name
We ain't looking for war, no
Pigs still aim for the torso
Death knocking doors like Morse code with force
Hearts broken, minds splitting like a divorce
(OH!)
I guess it's par for the course
In a world where we'd rather slam the door on peace to settle the score
If they go low then we're gonna soar
Who really knows the measure of a man with nothing but gold?
Overworked, but we want more
So, what's the goal?
Leave a mark on the world just to leave with a scar?
Please the marks on the web just to eat with the stars?
(PLEASE!)
Don't pretend to shoot the breeze just to take my cheese.
What do you want from me?
Nobody heard when they came
to surrender, so they say
What a marvelous lie
They came looking for war and
maybe a little more but
she don't go by that name
she don't go by that name
she don't go by that name
she don't go by that name

Red sun is burning, must be a sign
When are you returning, draw me a line
Caught my mind leaving. remember that rhyme
Don't you stop believing, we'll be all right
Someone keeps telling me I'm alone
You're all I hear when I'm on the floor
Someone keeps saying I'm so far gone
You're all I hear on the floor
Let go, I'm learning. Give me some time
If you can't wait here, leave me behind
Took my seat at the table, just in time
Break that bread, bless you, pour me some wine
Someone keeps telling me I'm alone
You're all I hear when I'm on the floor
Someone keeps saying I'm so far gone
You're all I hear on the floor
Looking for a way
I'm so far away
Will you show me grace when I'm on the floor
Looking for a way
I'm so far away
Will you show me grace when I'm on the floor
Someone keeps telling me I'm alone
You're all I hear when I'm on the floor
Someone keeps saying I'm so far gone
You're all I hear on the floor

What did you say?
Yes, this is right up my lane
Let's test this
So speak the name
at the entrance
Will they let you in?
We'll just wait and see
But don't trust your eyes
They don't see me
Don't give away
all your cards yet
They're here to play
till you cross them
Nothing can save
the stone in their hearts, yeah
Trust me when I say
they're scheming something mean
Just don't trust your eyes
They don't see me
