Prompt / Lyrics
[Slow, dramatic strings. A single piano note. Smooth Sammy's voice — warm, confident, reflective:]

"They ask me if I have regrets. If I look back on the things I've done and wish I'd chosen differently. The answer is no. No regrets. No second thoughts. I did it my way. With an axe."

[The orchestra swells. The song begins.]

[VERSE 1 — SUNG]

And now the end is near.
And so I face the final curtain.
I've lived a life that's full.
I've swung the blade. I've felt the power.
I did it my way. With an axe.

Regrets? I've had a few.
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do.
I planned each bloody scene.
I did it my way. With an axe.

[HOOK — SUNG]

My way. My way. With an axe.
I never followed any tracks.
The voices sang. The voices led.
I swung the blade. I lost my head.

My way. My way. With a blade.
The only promise that I made
Was to myself. To the voice inside.

[VERSE 2 — SUNG]

I've loved. I've laughed. I've cried.
I've watched the bodies multiply.
I've held the face of everyone
Who ever taught me how to run.

But running wasn't in the cards.
So I stood still. I took the swing.
I watched the blood. I heard them sing.
I did it my way. With an axe.

[BRIDGE — SPOKEN]

"You ever look at your hands and wonder how they got so red? I don't wonder. I don't wash. I wear the red like a crown. That's my way. That's the only way I know."

[VERSE 3 — SUNG]

The voices ask me why.
I say "because the world is lies.
And the blade is the only thing inside me."

I faced it all. I stood my ground.
I swung the axe. I watched them fall.
I did it my way. With an axe.

No regrets. No tears. No fears.
The blade is the only thing that's ever been my home.

[FINAL HOOK — SUNG]

My way. My way. With an axe.
I never followed any tracks.
I did it my way. I did it right.
I swung the axe into the night.

My way. My way. The end is here.
The voices sing. The voices cheer.
I did it my way. With an axe.
I did it my way. I never looked back.

[OUTRO]

"That was 'My Way.' No regrets. No second thoughts. I did it my way. With an axe. And I'd do it again. I'd always do it again."

"My way. With an axe. That's the only way I know."
