Snakes and ladders.
buckles shattered.
it doesnt matter

we were lost but not forever.

into the darkness

enter the night
we're protected
the doors get slammed behind.


you can't look away
you'll come but you can't stay

you like the way i play
'cause when i play
i play dirty.


the stakes are high
the steaks served rare.

your box never read
handle with care


the cards were shuffled
the feathers ruffled
i'm cruel to be kind

so the worst is left behind

i play dirty

i smile big, 'cause i smile what i mean
now we're all preened and sparkle clean.
i'll whisper softly in your ear

until the truth is clear
