lyrics

The ballad of Mark David Chapman

He wasn’t the worst of the worst
Or even the most hated or cursed
He was the beautiful boy at the ball
Words like ‘love is all you need’
Come out so easily, when you seemingly
Have it all
Well, I thought you knew me through the songs
and through the speakers
I thought we got each other so well
But the Walrus and the Eggman can’t do nothing for you now
Hey, Johnny, what you got to say for yourself?

Me, I can’t forget how I’m from the middle of fucking nowhere
And they’re never gonna hear me out
Don’t I deserve to shine some too?
When something feels this right
You got to burn before the fire goes out

“You’d better stop for a minute
Think about what just went down here
Try to wash some of the blood off your hands
Just think about the shit they’re gonna talk about you
Once they find you’ve put a bullet hole
Right through the Nowhere Man”

But destiny can call you up at all times of the night
You might not again get this chance
Don’t you deserve to shine some too?
When something feels this right
You’ve got to pull the trigger while you still can.”
Yeah, yeah, yeah…
