Stakes Songtext
von Ante

Searching for fulfillment
When there′s nothing left but fate
You say I should quit
But man I fear that It's too late
For the weight of losing everything
Won′t hold me back from what I seek
Your face is read
There's nothing said
And I can't seem to get by my weakness

And I
I won′t
I won′t quit today
Because I
I got a hand to play


I can't fucking sleep
I got these lights stuck in my head
Another spin, when will I win
I hope for once just to wake up dead
Because there′s nothing left to my life
It's all just emptiness and decay
So I′ll never fucking stop
I'm only one spin away

And I
I won′t
I won't quit today
Because I
I gotta break away

You get off on whiskey
Cocaine and wine
Man I'll keep on risking everything
Until I kill this pain of mine
Cause I can′t sleep

But when the stakes turn to mistakes
I can′t win
The ball and chain
That you claim
Ties me to my sins

And when the stakes turn to mistakes
I can't win
But that′s what you say
