you've reached the peak of a deadly game
legitimize your crimes and build yourself a name
if it's in your sight if it's in your hands
the world's within your grasp but you still don't understand

one day you'll all fall down
today you'll all fall down

now's your chance to turn back and turn it all around

their knuckles shine with a brassy glow
you'll take what's offered or you'll take another blow
is it worth the price for another score
no matter where you stop you'll keep on wanting more
