| [00:54.10] |
We left the toys out in the yard |
| [00:59.59] |
I took my wife and kids and left my home unguarded |
| [01:03.94] |
We packed what we could into the car |
| [01:12.14] |
No one here knows how it started |
| [01:17.20] |
But suddenly everything was just so out of control |
| [01:20.33] |
Now I want some answers, mister, I need to know |
| [01:23.19] |
I hear all the talk but I dont know what youre sayin |
| [01:25.95] |
But I think I got a good idea of the game that youre playin |
| [01:29.31] |
Roulette, thats the name now |
| [01:32.38] |
Roulette, thats the game now |
| [01:35.37] |
Roulette, I dont believe what theyre sayin |
| [01:39.31] |
Roulette, and everybodys playin |
| [01:43.88] |
I grew up here on this street where nothin moves, just a strange breeze |
| [01:51.59] |
In a town full of worthless memories theres a shadow in my backyard |
| [02:00.26] |
Ive got a house full of things that I cant touch |
| [02:03.52] |
Well all those things they wont do me much good now |
| [02:06.82] |
I was a fireman out at rikers, I did my job |
| [02:09.76] |
Mister, Ive been cheated, I feel like Ive been robbed |
| [02:12.39] |
Im the big expendable, my lifes just canceled, null and void |
| [02:15.40] |
But what are you gonna do about your new boy |
| [02:18.51] |
Roulette, youre playin with my life |
| [02:21.33] |
Roulette, with my kids and my wife |
| [02:24.45] |
Roulette, every day the stakes get bigger |
| [02:27.32] |
Roulette, a different finger on the trigger |
| [02:56.13] |
Down by the river that talks the night speaks in searchlights |
| [03:03.77] |
And shortwave radio squawk, the police patrol the streets |
| [03:12.27] |
But Ive left behind the man I used to be, everything he believed in and all that belonged to me |
| [03:18.66] |
I tried to find my way out to somewhere where I thought itd be safe |
| [03:21.53] |
They stopped me at the roadblock they put up on the interstate |
| [03:23.85] |
They put me in detention but I broke loose and then I ran |
| [03:26.58] |
They said they want to ask me a few questions but I think they had other plans |
| [03:30.08] |
Now I dont know who to trust and I dont know what I can believe |
| [03:32.45] |
They say they want to help me but with the stuff they keep on sayin |
| [03:35.52] |
I think those guys just wanna keep on playin |
| [03:38.95] |
Roulette, with my life |
| [03:41.52] |
Roulette, with my kids and my wife |
| [03:44.52] |
Roulette, the bullets in the chamber |
| [03:47.32] |
Roulette, whos the unlucky stranger |
| [03:50.33] |
Roulette, surprise, youre dead |
| [03:53.08] |
Roulette, the guns to your head |
| [03:56.20] |
Roulette, the bullets spinning in the chamber |
| [03:59.08] |
Roulette, pull the trigger, feel the click |
| [04:02.02] |
No further danger |
