Blow on the Dice Lyrics

I'm waiting for so long
to slip away now,
to overtake the new day
faded like the moon
I walk in silence, thinking
what are the odds in this game

another reason
to find something new
that couldn't do any harm
but the stakes are rolling high
my eyes are open wide

I'd like to reason with my prey
say, split the gain - half each
but there's far too many twists around here
I'd watch my temper, but it's out of my reach
luck's acting like a stranger
in a parlour
sweetly polite, but nothing more

but I called my number, roll
my mind is empty
and pockets as dry as my throat
another reason
to find something new
that couldn't do any harm
but the stakes are rolling high
my eyes are open wide

I'd like to reason with my prey
say, split the gain - half each
but there's far too many twists around here
I'd watch my temper, but it's out of my reach
