Lyric discussion by foreverdrone 

When first you hear the song, the words seem like a story being told from the third-person omniscient point-of-view. Later, David suddenly adds a line which doesn't fit with what went before. His voice has a different timbre (sung more quietly; a lot of echo on it). Nor is it the same melody we've been hearing.

Now we know who's been sketching this portrait of a callow assassin: "My name's on the gun..." Who says dead men tell no tales?
