| Lyrics: | Rachel Fuller |
What the hell has happened to the man I see before me
The world has called him in his pleasure I don't recognize
This man who came so full of life has mischief all around him
Is hard and mean and hoarding all the things he once despised
The world has called him in his pleasure I don't recognize
This man who came so full of life has mischief all around him
Is hard and mean and hoarding all the things he once despised
chorus:
You throw the dice and lose your head
It doesn't really matter if you win or lose
The stakes too high, you play along until you're spent
This ugly game has ___ you pretty hard
But still you roll the dice
It doesn't really matter if you win or lose
The stakes too high, you play along until you're spent
This ugly game has ___ you pretty hard
But still you roll the dice
Just squander all your wretched coins, appears to be your aim
You thrive on the anxiety brought by this wreckless game
But still you play so discontent, no limit to your spend
I fear your soul will not survive, my friend when will it end
You thrive on the anxiety brought by this wreckless game
But still you play so discontent, no limit to your spend
I fear your soul will not survive, my friend when will it end
chorus:
You throw the dice and lose your head
It doesn't really matter if you win or lose
The stakes too high, you play along until you're spent
This ugly game has ___ you pretty hard
But still you throw the dice, still you throw the dice
It doesn't really matter if you win or lose
The stakes too high, you play along until you're spent
This ugly game has ___ you pretty hard
But still you throw the dice, still you throw the dice
What the hell has happened to the man I see before me
The world has called him in his pleasure I don't recognize
This man who came so full of light has darkness all around him
Full of booze and women he is dead behind the eyes
The world has called him in his pleasure I don't recognize
This man who came so full of light has darkness all around him
Full of booze and women he is dead behind the eyes
chorus:
You throw the dice and lose your head
It doesn't seem to matter if you win or lose
The stakes too high, you play along until you're spent
This ugly game has ___ you pretty hard
But still you throw the dice
It doesn't seem to matter if you win or lose
The stakes too high, you play along until you're spent
This ugly game has ___ you pretty hard
But still you throw the dice
