Stampede

I was once a public menace
Never caught or paid my penance
Led a life of bad decisions
Till one day, I saw a vision

She saw more than just a sinner
Soon some hope began to glimmer
Then when we were out with friends
Karma came to claim revenge

My life is a stampede
While your heart seems to bleed
Between my fingers, beads of life are
Finally freed
My life is a stampede
While your heart seems to bleed
Between my fingers, beads of life are
Finally freed

Came a-cross a crime in progress
All too well I knew the process
Wave a gun and scare the patrons
Take some wallets, get your skates on
Suddenly they changed the plot
Someone fired a warning shot
In a flash, we ran for cover
All except my darling lover

My life is a stampede
While your heart seems to bleed
Between my fingers, beads of life are
Finally freed
My life is a stampede
While your heart seems to bleed
Between my fingers, beads of life are
Finally freed

She was standing in amazement
Then collapsed onto the pavement
In her eyes, a look of terror
Couldn't comprehend the error

In her dress, a bullet hole
But no trace of blood at all
For the round had passed her breast
Found its home in-side my chest

My life is a stampede
While your heart seems to bleed
Between my fingers, beads of life are
Finally freed
My life is a stampede
While your heart seems to bleed
Between my fingers, beads of life are
Finally freed
