Bets With God

Made a deal with God
A trust that I wouldn't bleed
And I never saw a drop until the devil was laying with me
Now I am awake
But I woke without my lust
My hands they've always ached
And now my bones they turn to rust

So chain me to this bed
I refuse to leave my room
Set this place alight
I swear I'll never fucking move
I'll never make a sound
You won't know if I was there
I once was heaven sent
But now you don't seem to care

All I ever really needed
Was another reason
That you were never leaving
It's bittersweet how you complete me
I'm your slave better tie me down or I'll go
But I never really needed you

I lost a wager with the Gods
Then found the devil within your arms
Now I've forgotten every single reason that I started searching
For somebody to blame
You can't kill me I'm already dead
You're welcome to try
Put a round through my head

And if It's any consolation you're the first to break the skin
You left a scar that made me feel alive again
When this tension's drowning me
You are the air that I breathe in
You pull me under and leave me with
Nothing but the memory of a good friend who gave me some advice that I should cherish
He said, "I've known you for so long, since before you were an addict."
"I'll be there at the end I don't care if we win or lose."
"Just don't let these vices define you."

Tell me now was it worth it
From riches to rags you've got nothing more to lose

All I ever really needed
Was another reason
That you were never leaving
It's bittersweet how you complete me
I'm your slave better tie me down or I'll go
But I never really needed (no I never really needed)
I never really needed you
