Cheap Suit Lyrics

With the cards on the table I itch

It's been a long, long time

My blinds, just watching the turn

It turned out for the worst

But in a cheap suit I strived

And in a cheap suit I buried the kings alive

I lost a stack from the math that I did in my head

What can you expect if you're hanging on just by a thread

Well I'm down but not out and watch out

The dealer's armed

On my left left his kids in the cold

To get this far

Here I sit again

Beside you

Even though I know

I've been lied to

The law, the lay, the land

This hand's my call

This is my favourite place

I even kept a face

Without letting

On I had the ace

You kept betting

I've been here for days

I'm gonna risk it all

My plan is slowly falling apart

I reassure you I'm fine

I've tried to curb my habit at best

I slip from time to time

And in a cheap suit I cried

In a cheap suit I laid it all on the line

I know just what you're thinking it's true

Because I just can't quit

Aren't you just a little bit proud

It's what I can admit

If I can reach my goal then we're gold

If not I'll go all in

The worst part it drags me down

If I don't win

Here I sit again

Beside you

Even though I know

I've been lied to

The law, the lay, the land

This hand's my call

This is my favourite place

I even kept a face

Without letting

On I had the ace

You kept betting

I've been here for days

I'm gonna risk it all

I'm afraid it's all long gone

Here I sit again

Beside you

Even though I know

I've been lied to

The law, the lay, the land

This hand's my call

This is my favourite place

I even kept a face

Without letting

On I had the ace

You kept betting

I've been here for days

I'm gonna risk it all

I'm afraid it's all long gone
