The Thrill to End all Thrills (song lyric).

I don’t have a nerve in my body, left to get excited

they’ve been burned away by the angst and pain I’ve had to live with.

Life has treated me so hard,

I never get scared and I never get mad,

I’m just waiting for the thrill to end all thrills.

Waiting for dawn’s songbirds to fly,
Waiting to hear them before I die;

I’m just waiting for the thrill to end all thrills

Risking my life in a game with desperate stranger.

Might blow a hole in my brain, but I love the danger.

Like an addict looking for his fix

I’m searching, yearning, reaching out for bigger better kicks,

I’m begging now for the thrill to end all thrills

Waiting for the blackness of eternity,
Waiting for the shot to be the end of me; I’m aching for the thrill to end all thrills

Will it be a hollow click or a blast of thunder?

Waiting for the ultimate kick and to be blast asunder.

The stranger shakes and is running in sweat,

Me? I don’t even draw an extra breath,

I’m just hanging on for the thrill to end all thrills

Sittin’ at the table

with a gun at my head.

Five empty chambers

but it’s still a crazy bet…

Russian Roulette.

Waiting for what lady luck brings today,
I don’t know a man that she hasn’t betrayed; I’m waiting for the thrill to end all thrills.
