How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
Verse: 1
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
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?
Verse: 2
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
How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make? (nothing lasts forever)
Does this get any better?
Should I carry on?
Will it matter when I'm gone? (doesn't make a difference)
Will any of this matter?
Bridge
Nothing lasts forever
Doesn't make a difference
Verse: 3
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?
How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
Should I carry on?
Will it matter when I'm gone?
