Nervous as a father cocky as a son
A hundred dollar bill on the table my game is 21
Swing like a seesaw back and forth my conscious prays
For the next time that I get I will walk away, from here
Oh, stop everyone I am drawing dead and
I can’t stop myself
I need to slow down and wake up because
I’m digging my own grave
With every card I take is the deeper and the deeper I get
I’m drawing dead
Whisky on the rocks chase with Jack and Coke
I can’t drink them fast enough to erase the fact your gone
So, I smoke another cigarette anything for luck
But I know the only way to beat the house is to never sit down
Oh, stop everyone I am drawing dead and
I can’t stop myself
I need to slow down and wake up because
I’m digging my own grave
With every card I take is the deeper and the deeper I get
I’m drawing dead
It’s all because of you
That I try and I try and I try to buy my happiness
Just like you the cards I can’t predict
One minute you’re here and the next one you’re gone and
I don’t know what to believe
Oh, stop everyone I am drawing dead and
I can’t stop myself
I need to slow down and wake up because
I’m digging my own grave
With every card I take is the deeper and the deeper I get
I’m drawing dead

Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
