[Featuring: Ed Sheeran]
2
There must be some kind of way out of here
3
Said the joker to the thief
4
There's too much confusion
5
I can't get no relief
6
Yeah, I see jokers on my left
7
Thieves up on my right
8
You'd find me in the middle if I picked a different life
9
Before my name started tripling in size
10
But I'm still showing signs all the (?) align
11
In the pitch black, it's too cold
12
I'm all alone take me back to the roads I had to roam
13
To get here and I'll hitch back
14
Get a cab to my mother's house,
15
See my old man and grab a six pack
16
Tell my brother I love him
17
And give him something that will see him through the hard times
18
What's a brother for?
19
When I'm sick of this life I see,
20
It has to be my family who lift me off the floor.
21
Make sense of all the madness
22
In a world full of money, full of tears, full of war
23
I was a failed man and worse I couldn't give a f*ck
24
Save your wine for the entrepreneurs
25
All along the watchtower
26
Princess kept the view
27
While all the women came and went
28
Barefoot servants, too
29
Outside in the cold distance
30
A wildcat did growl
31
Two riders were approaching
32
And the wind begins to howl
33
'Cause your world is the same as mine
34
Pour more blood in your cup,
35
Take a sip full of sin and let your taste buds savour the buzz.
36
The flavour of an ill-mannered nature,
37
That lingers on as animals in all of us
38
Trying to fight for the right to live a life
39
But some will never win though
40
That's why they live a lie
41
I don't think I'll ever win
42
All of this is anything
43
When I die I hope a brother's at my side
44
There's no trap door, or get out clause
45
The world can be your oyster or a set of jail doors
46
You've seen mine, I think it's time I see yours
47
I bet you that we've been scarred by the same swords
48
Some have lost someone they like
49
Apart from the fact I live my life in the light
50
And now I'm trapped in it
51
The way I feel, within a few years time
52
I might have a couple kids and just forget I ever wrote this
53
All along the watchtower
54
Princess kept the view
55
While all the women came and went
56
Barefoot servants, too
57
Outside in the cold distance
58
A wildcat did growl
59
Two riders were approaching
60
And the wind begins to howl
61
Take away the treasure of a man,
62
Convinced that he holds heaven in his hands
63
Even though I ain't religious I'm a little superstitious,
64
Maybe there is a promised land
65
But will I make it or not is a different matter
66
I've been a joker, I've been a thief, I've been a rapper
67
I've been the only enemy that I can never beat
68
Give me a piece of mind upon a platinum platter
69
We're all along the watchtower
70
Princess kept the view
71
While all the women came and went
72
Barefoot servants, too
73
Outside in the cold distance
74
A wildcat did growl
75
Two riders were approaching
76
And the wind begins to howl
