if my hope was an axe, you'd been dead by now
'cause it's no fun until someone gets hurt
the game is fixed
"hold those cards," she said, "with odds like these, they'll shear through our hands like shards."
i've called her bluffs, she's not folding
"well, with the hand i'm holding, i've got you beat."
all love is tough love
by pinches of deceit, toppled with defeat
every joker gets the chance to fuck a queen
banished to the bottom of the deck between suicide kings with slit-necks
shuffle,
shuffle,
cut it
if you shove me again, i'll give you something worth the hustle
don't say you love me again or i'll put in a little muscle
shuffle,
shuffle,
hit me
every day we play, we just become less humble
every night we fight, the neighbors get us in trouble
just cowboys and indians, so round 'em up
52 reasons why winning's not enough
last nickels on liquor spent at the corner pub
that's where the healing starts
gamble with your guts, boys, never your hearts

born a mistake
it's in your blood to make them
