The ball dropped in the cold light
Dawning on a cold eastern morning
Not shocked - can't be too appalled
When there were so many warnings
I hear you knock; I hear you
Unlock my door
I don't want you to have,
Have my key anymore
Shoes on but the mailbox is empty
When there could've been something
The well's dry - I'm out of empathy
This shouldn't end with both of us dead
I'd like to help you
But we've been here before
Yes, I'm aware of the stakes
And I can't afford anymore
You're a gambler in need; you're
A gamble indeed
You're a gambler in need, now -
A gamble indeed
I took a walk and I counted all the ways
That I invest and I'm left with
Nothing much to show
You're a gambler in need
And I need you to know
Take, take from the ones you
Feel you can
Make, make promises unreal and
You break everyone down
Next time I won't be around
