"Snake Eyes" lyrics

"Snake Eyes"

Running out a few more bucks
Playing games that prove my luck
I'm pushing chips just for the rush
Win back half and fall in love
Having flashbacks again
But I swear this time, I'll win
I sway myself to roll the dice
What do you know? It's snake eyes

Should of known it from the start
Didn't go with head, I went with heart
It ain't the table telling me lies
It's the reflection in my eyes
Ante up one more time
Win or lose, no, I don't mind
I've seen this play out before
Ends with someone out the door

Don't act like I've got nothing to lose
Don't act like you don't damn well know the truth
'Cause it ain't just me, it always takes two
When I play the game, I'm sitting right across from you
Across from you

Run my hands across the felt
Playing for keeps in the Bible Belt
Am I playing for myself or for that glass on the shelf?
'Nother round, another fold
Maybe it's time this game turns cold
I've played my hand the best I could
You played the hand I knew you would

Don't act like I've got nothing to lose
Don't act like you don't damn well know the truth
'Cause it ain't just me, it always takes two
When I play the game, I'm sitting right across from you
Across from you
When I play the game, I'm sitting right across from you
Across from you

I've done my best all my life
Came up short, but that's alright
'Least it's an honest way of life
Knew what's wrong and knew what's right
Maybe I'm out on taking chances
Crowded bars and second glances
'Cause I know what lies inside
Couple pair of them snake eyes

Don't act like I've got nothing to lose
Don't act like you don't damn well know the truth
'Cause it ain't just me, it always takes two
When I play the game, I'm sitting right across from you
