Make a Bet
I'm hangin' around
I'm not puttin' down the state I'm in
I've never been proud
And now I'm allowed to shed my skin
I drive it away
I know if I stay, sit and spin
Imagine the day
I'm drowing that they can reel me in
Pick up where I left off
Let's make a bet
We'll make a bargain and call this truce
Let's make a bet
I'm in loss at win or lose with you
I see it all now
I'm taking my bow in every sense
I'm scratching around
It's getting too loud, the space I'm in
So now I can leave
Too decent of me, so evident
The one that relieves
The other's disease, like medicine
Pick up where I left off
Let's make a bet
We'll make a bargain and call this truce
Let's make a bet
I'm in loss at win or lose
Speakin' in tounges, I can't get through
Thinkin' of runnin' but
I'm tired of runnin' into you
Speakin' in tounges the way I do
I found that you understand quite well
'Cause that's your language too
I'm hangin' around
I'm not puttin' down the state I'm in
In love with the sound
It's gettin' too loud
Let's make a bet
We'll make a bargain and call this truce
Let's make a bet
I'm compulsive, win or lose
Let's make a bet
I never wanted to call this truce
Let's make a bet
Always lost at win or lose with you
I'm not puttin' down the state I'm in
I've never been proud
And now I'm allowed to shed my skin
I drive it away
I know if I stay, sit and spin
Imagine the day
I'm drowing that they can reel me in
Pick up where I left off
Let's make a bet
We'll make a bargain and call this truce
Let's make a bet
I'm in loss at win or lose with you
I see it all now
I'm taking my bow in every sense
I'm scratching around
It's getting too loud, the space I'm in
So now I can leave
Too decent of me, so evident
The one that relieves
The other's disease, like medicine
Pick up where I left off
Let's make a bet
We'll make a bargain and call this truce
Let's make a bet
I'm in loss at win or lose
Speakin' in tounges, I can't get through
Thinkin' of runnin' but
I'm tired of runnin' into you
Speakin' in tounges the way I do
I found that you understand quite well
'Cause that's your language too
I'm hangin' around
I'm not puttin' down the state I'm in
In love with the sound
It's gettin' too loud
Let's make a bet
We'll make a bargain and call this truce
Let's make a bet
I'm compulsive, win or lose
Let's make a bet
I never wanted to call this truce
Let's make a bet
Always lost at win or lose with you
