Deal No Deal

Time to pay the devil his due, starin.at the table lost in smoke an the red-lit view

Lost my soul in the devil’s den,where angels dare not tread,every wrong turn cuttin deeper through

Life is the dealer,deal,no deal,the cards keep foldin on my ruined name

Pawns in this game,cut deep like a cleaver,every move I make just feeds the flame

Jesus pulls me back, says,“Boy,where you runnin’?” I hear that mercy breakin through

Distance in my soul,my heart’s still gunnin torn between the dark an what is true

Lost my soul runnin from the past,drownin in strife

Days turn ta night,can’t close my eyes,haunted by ghosts in dark disguise

I keep reachin for a hand through the smoke,the shadows always seem ta win

I’m trapped in this loop of deal,no deal,tryin ta find my way back again,all I'm findin is hurtin

Whiskey, weed, an women,my Kryptonite,drownin’ in pain while I drift through the night

Hop in an out,life’s just a game,got me caught in a haze,losin grip on the light

Lost my soul to the dealer of death in the Chess game of life,on the Chess board of Life,livin life in a maze

VHS dreams an time-worn fears rewind my mind in a broken,haunted daze

Back to the bottle, call it my slide,sour mash memories I can’t outrun

Jesus pulls me back,sayin’ turn around, "boy, it ain’t too late" my son , come back to the sun,deal, no deal

Time to pay the devil his due, lost my soul in that den

Where angels dare not tread, the dealer laughed an dimmed the light,

Life's the dealer, deal, no deal, I keep on losin sight,

Pawns in this game cut deep like a cleaver, I bleed through every night.

Jesus pulls me back, says, “Boy, where you runnin’?”

My heart still burns, my feet keep on gunnin’.

Lost my soul, runnin’ from the past, drownin’ in strife,

Days turn ta night, can’t close my eyes,haunted ghosts keep cuttin’ life,

Scars on my back, knives in my heart, still I’m searchin’ for that light,all I'm findin is hurtin,climbin the stairway ta heaven, light switch is on, lights on, ain't no one home

Deal,no deal,fightin’ for my soul in the devil’s den tonight ,On the highway ta hell

Whiskey, weed, an woman, my kryptonite, drownin’ in the pain,

Hop in an out of chaos, like life was just a game I couldn’t tame,

Lost my soul to the dealer, on the game table of life,stuck inside the maze, hauntin

Old VHS dreams keep rewindin in my head,while I wander through the haze.

Back ta the bottle,call it my slide,can’t outrun the ride

Jesus keeps sayin, “Turn around, son,” but I’m still runnin’ from the tide.Deal,no deal

Lost my soul,runnin from the past,drownin in strife

Days turn ta night,can’t close my eyes, haunted ghosts keep cuttin’ life

Scars on my back,knives in my heart,still I’m searchin’ for that light,black sky Mercy

Deal, no deal,I’m fightin’ for my soul in the devil’s den tanight

I hear that mercy callin’ me back,soft as dawn through the rain

If I turn around now,maybe I can break this game an leave the pain, knockin on heaven's door, all I'm findin is hurtin, deal no.deal,
