Lyrics

When Jokers Attack

Love dies fast, now

Whenever you're uncertain how

This unsure that you love

Dreams die fast, fast

Whenever you dream they can last

Take this pain when you go, yeah

Life is fast, now

Whenever you're uncertain how

This unsure do you know

Love dies faster, fast

When you think it can never last

Take me please if you go, yeah
