Текст пісні
Checked the clock, it's early again
Staring at the echo of where you've been
My hands are shaking, yeah, it's physical
The way you break me down is biblical
I'm pouring bourbon to numb the ache
Of the version of you I can't un-make
The more I drink, the more I trace your face
Like a ghost haunting a burning place
My head says run but my heart says wait
Turning the key on my own fate
It's a prison cell with an open door
But I'm still shackled to the floor
Oh, you're the love poison in my glass
A beautiful wreck I can't let pass
Gambling chips that I'll never own
A rigged up game, a heart of stone
Yeah, the house always wins, and I'm losing it all
I'm addicted to the rush of the rise and fall
A hollow high, a desperate view
I'm dying for another hit of you
Tell myself "move on", yeah it sounds sweet
Like I'm not bleeding here out on the street
You're a high stakes bet I won't collect
The lethal cause and side effect
My logic's gone, my ego's bruised
Just a willing fool waiting to be used
It's a prison cell with an open door
Why am I begging you for more?
Break the chains, break the cycle and glass
How long can a temporary madness last?
The future's a blur and the past is a weight
I'm trying to leave before it's too late
Stripped right down to the jagged bone
Terrified of being left alone
Oh, you're the love poison in my glass
A beautiful wreck I can't let pass
Gambling chips that I'll never own
A rigged up game, a heart of stone
Yeah, the house always wins, and I'm losing it all
I'm addicted to the rush of the rise and fall
A hollow high, a desperate view
I'm dying for another hit of you
Yeah, it's poison... (but it tastes like honey)
It's a losing hand... (but I'm burning my money)
One more fix, then I'm walking away
