How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?
How high are the stakes?
How much fortune can you make?

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 deserved 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?

It's funny how everybody mentions my name
But they're never very 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 deserved 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? (Does it make a difference?)
Will any of this matter?

How high
Does it make a difference?
Nothing lasts forever
Should I?
Will it matter when I'm gone?
Will any of this matter?

(Yesterdays)
(Yesterdays)

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?

How high are the stakes? (How high?)
How much fortune can you make? (Does it make a difference?)
Nothing lasts forever
Does this get any better?
Should I carry on? (Should I?)
Will it matter when I'm gone? (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?
