How high are the stakes How much fortune can you make {repeat}
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 deserve it
{Chorus} How high are the stakes How much fortune can you make Does this get any better Should I carry on Will it matter when I'm gone Will any of this matter
It's funny How everybody mentions my name But they're never really nice I took it Just about everything Except my own advice
Was it all worth it And how did I earn it Nobody's perfect I guess I deserve it
{Chorus}
{nothing lasts forever} {doesn't make a difference}
How high Doesn't make a difference Nothing lasts forever Should I Will it matter when I'm gone Will any of this matter
How high are the stakes How much fortune can you make Should I carry on Will it matter when I'm gone
