In a smoky room the shadows stand
In a faded shroud plays the devils hand
Borne on pompous grin deals another day
Betting souls and lives as they cry and pray
Blindfolded dreams whispers of the night
Hes cherishing death as we shut out the light
Playing cards for souls in the flickering light
Its the devil's own bluff and he's losing tonight
Through the poker kings lies hes beginning to feel
It's the the game of our lives and your soul he'll steal
A flicker of doubt passes over his face
With every card drawn with the darkness he plays
Emotions run high and the future will show
How we gamble away with fate of the souls
With every loss his laughter fades
With every grimace falls the charade
Playing cards for souls in the flickering light
Its the devil's own bluff and he's losing tonight
Through the poker kings lies hes beginning to feel
It's the the game of our lives and your soul he'll steal
Short fall of stasis in games gone awry
The worlds dying embers crawl off as we try
And the words echo shrill through the night seal of fate
But good conquers evil and love triumphs hate
The smoke clears away and cross the skies does fire roam
In the depths of his loss the freedom souls fly home
