I spend my life on the move, my life on the road |
|
Town to town, city to city, time zone to time zone |
|
Success keeps you busy so |
|
I can't complain how life is |
|
But in a life like this you tend to develop some vices |
|
My wife is my life and |
|
I'd never cheat on her |
|
But there are one or two things that |
|
I do keep from her |
|
I have my addictions, or rather my addictions have me |
|
Sometimes the shadow of my shadow is all |
|
I can be I find myself alone in different hotel rooms |
|
Just me and my thoughts and that milk-stained moon |
|
I'm drawn to walk the streets as my heart rate rises |
|
A heavy coat, a scarf, a hat, all become my disguises. |
|
I've made it known that |
|
I suffer from nosebleeds and migraines |
|
To explain the occasional mood swings and blood stains |
|
There's over a thousand people murdered in this world each day |
|
So as I drift from town to town nobody looks my way |
|
It's an addiction, and |
|
I ain't proud of it |
|
But the power that you feel there's no clouding it. |
|
The fear before the fact, as they know something's wrong |
|
The vain attempts to scream their muffled swan song |
|
The struggle, the shock in their eyes, |
|
My grip around their throat as all their hope dies |
|
That sudden loss of breath, there is no thrill equal, |
|
My name is |
|
Johnny Depp and |
|
I kill people. [HOOK:] |
|
The Fear The |
|
Scream The |
|
Struggle The |
|
Shock You fuckers never saw it coming, who'da thunk it or thought it? |
|
You'd be ignored like the ramblings of a drunk if you'd report it |
|
My performances are greeted with plaudits and laughter |
|
If you caught me red handed you'd probably think it's stigmata |
|
Success sucks less than standard existence |
|
But when you exceed that standard dreams, what becomes of ambitions? |
|
The average man can dream dreams of a path he's never walked |
|
But when that path's your day to day, your dreams become warped [HOOK:] |
|
The Fear The |
|
Scream The |
|
Struggle The |
|
Shock People underestimate the value of dreaming |
|
That which you aspire to provides of a roof, a ceiling |
|
In particular the dreams that there's no way of achieving |
|
Like I wanna be |
|
Brad Pitt or something equally fleeting |
|
I can't aspire to such things so deeper |
|
I must delve |
|
And then the only guide |
|
I have to life becomes myself |
|
This was always going to happen, in fact |
|
I'd be surprised if |
|
I'm the first |
|
This kind of success and power is bound to bring out the worst |
|
With success comes power and great success has been given me |
|
And with great power... comes great fuck-a-bility |
|
I'm a good husband though, |
|
I've never cheated on my wife |
|
Despite opportunities |
|
I live a monogamous life |
|
My addictions manifest in a darker form |
|
If the heart is a house, |
|
I have a blood stained lawn |
|
My public portraits immaculate but there's blood on the easel |
|
My name is |
|
Johnny Depp and |
|
I kill people [HOOK:] |
|
The Fear The |
|
Scream The |
|
Struggle The |
|
Shock |
