The Better

From the Album: The Firethorn Sessions
We surround the green table and we have failed as one, and I
Can't forget the cards you kept in sleeves about your gown
But the truth is that I know...
The better it gives, the better it gets
The better it gives, the better it gets
The better it gives, the better it gets
The better it gives...
And I lay down outside
If I let you win, it won't be so bad
If I fold now, it might be for the best
I put myself down on the table to see the chances I might have tonight
But I found the luck I had was meager around this town
But I guess you'll never know...
The better it gives, the better it gets
The better it gives, the better it gets
The better it gives, the better it gets
The better it gives...
And I lay down outside
If I let you win, it won't be so bad
I got a straight to the queen
If I fold now, it might be for the best
