lyrics

I was gonna be the gunslinger, dead ringer. I was gonna go 10,000 miles, 10,000 miles! Help you up on your green horse, no remorse. We were gonna burn that motel down. Burn it to the ground!

Who's gonna love you, baby? Now the hounds have gotten their fill. No ones gonna love you like I loved you, baby. No ones gonna love you like I loved you, baby.

We were gonna be the poltergeist, the antichrist. It was gonna be the end of time, the end of time! And you were gonna let me burn, both our turns. But I had a chance to snuff out that flame. Choke out that flame!

Who's gonna love you, baby? Now the hounds have gotten their fill. No ones gonna love you like I loved you, baby. No ones gonna love you like I loved you, baby.

All that's left inside your mind is pure evil. All that's left inside your mind is the damned devil.
