There are bullets in your eyes
And we've a score to settle now
A burst of violent light
A smokin' gun and
I'm on the ground
You shot me down
You shot me down
You shot me down
I'll give you one more rose
Before you go
It's one last shot to keep
My fightin', bleedin'
Heart alive
Well, it's worth a try
But you just sink into my sleep
It's vanity
The ghosts have all arrived
Dressed in their fancies and their frills
They run with eager eyes
To that little church upon a hill
Where I lay still
Where I lay still
I'm waiting, still
To give you one more rose
Before you go
It's one last shot to keep
My fightin', bleedin'
Heart alive
Well, it's worth a try
But you just sink into my sleep
It's vanity
It's vanity
It's vanity
Oh vanity
I'll give you one more rose
Before you go
It's one last shot to keep
My fightin', bleedin'
Heart alive
Well, it's worth a try
But you just sink into my sleep
It's vanity
