It's funny
I spent my whole life
Wanting to be talked about

I did it
Just about everything
To see my name in lights

*Was it all worth it?
And how did I earn it?
Nobody's perfect
I guess I deserved it

** How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
Nothing lasts forever
Does this get any better?

Should I carry on?
Will it matter when I'm gone?
Does it make a difference?
Will any of this matter? **

It's funny
How everybody mentions my name
But they're never very nice

I took it
Just about everything
Except my own advice

* Repeat

** ～ ** Repeat

How high are the stakes?
How high are the stakes?

How much fortune can you make?
How much fortune can you make?

Should I carry on?
Should I carry on?

Will it matter when I'm gone?
Will it matter when I'm gone?

Was it all worth it
How high are the stakes?

And how did I earn it
How much fortune can you make?

Nobody's perfect
Should I carry on?

I guess I deserved it

** ～ ** Repeat (x2)

How High
Does it make a difference
Should I
Will it matter when I'm gone

How high are the stakes
