.bet on death.

The death card flipped up just to destroy my bet
And now I’ve got ten fingers of debt
They all came for me in the dead of the night
And they tamed me so that I will never again be able to bite

I turned on the TV and I saw God laughing at me
And I just smiled right back because I saw His hand moving on a string
But even though I know the Bible is dead and its pages are blank
It only means that God is gone and that the world’s salvation ship sank

There is no escape from the gray area of the mathematics
But there is indeed an escape from these everyday semantics
This one says my head won’t think and this other one says my fingers won’t feel
I’d better get this right because it hurts so bad to heal

Let’s see, I need a dab of this and a dash of that
Let’s see, I can grind this up and shave it like a
piece of meat
God will never be able to get inside my head
Because I will lay down and sleep till I’m dead
