Hope is a gun,
That you load every day,
As it's chamber is spun,
You bite down on the steel,
And you pray.
So it goes, we re-cycle the errors we've made,
So it goes, we're condemned to repeat and to fade.
Love is a bomb,
That can keep you in place,
Can keep you alone,
Or just go off in your face.
So it goes, we re-cycle the errors we've made,
So it goes, we're condemned to repeat and to fade,
So it goes, it's a curious way to prevail,
So it goes, we're perpetually chasing our tails.
Leave your logic behind,
Put it out of your mind,
That's not how we do things round here,
It couldn't be easier,
This splendid amnesia,
Oh we must not forget,
To forget, to forget, to forget.
Hope is a gun,
That you load every day,
As it's chamber is spun,
You bite down on the steel,
And you pray.
So it goes, we re-cycle the errors we've made,
So it goes, we're condemned to repeat and to fade,
So it goes, it's a curious way to prevail,
So it goes, we're perpetually chasing our tails.
