Shooting Gallery Lyrics

Shooting Gallery lyrics

Last night I went to Hell



Of the stench of death

The
tenement, it smelled





The shooting gallerie's breath



I saw women and men





Kill themselves again and
again



They make their own disease

And the end they will not
see







Yesterday I had a girl



To me, she
meant all the world



Until the needle filled her arm



Now she fills me with alarm



Tombstone graves fill her eyes





She looks at me with mad despise

I pitty her destiny



Now she's only hating me







They say that
they don't care at all



The world is fucking sad





On that point I agree with them



But nothing is that bad



Poison disease, eating through their minds





They
will never see the end of the line



I will never understand why
they do it to themselves



Why they choose a life that so resembles
Hell







Now I stand in pouring rain





At a friend's funeral again

Tears fill my eyes





He
lived a tortured life

And as I walk away

I see another stray





It seems so sad to me

Stumbling down the street









[Repeat chorus]
