You were once the picture

Of perfect cool

With a calculated smile

But you played the world

For one big fool

Now you're losing all your style



Cracking your whip, but no one hears you

Tighten your grip, but no one fears you

Shot down, and you lost your power

How will you face, the desperate hour

You're desperate



I think you waited

Just a bit too long

It didn't happen like you planned

Now your rationale

Is all but gone

How did it get so out of hand



Cracking your whip, but no one hears you

Tighten your grip, but no one fears you

Shot down, and you lost your power

How will you face, the desperate hour

Loading your gun, you're filled with passion

Turning to run, just ain't your fashion

Blown out, by the circumstances

Never mind that you'll take your chances

You're desperate
