Yesterday's odds
Are looking better for me
A chance to feel your love
Another day returns the favor
And the light's warm giving
The blood stays in the vein
The blood stays in the vein
Yesterday's gone
And the days feel better
A chance to kiss the one
Whose death came closer
Whose death came faster
Whose love grows deeper
And the light's warm giving
Will bleed a darker show
A curse lives in the vein
A curse lives in the vein
Yesterday's odds
Are never better for me...
Yesterday's odds
Are never better for me...
You bet against me
Let the chips fall
A noose never kills
When your grip holds tighter
A hand always kills
So the fools pray harder
Today is a brighter day
When the sun burns out
And the light's cold giving
Come to turn you out...
Come to turn you out...
You bet against me
Let the night fall
A noose never kills
When your love burns brighter
A hand always kills
So the fools pray harder
Preamble to a dying
Today is a darker day
Today is a darker way
When the sun burns out
And the light's cold giving
Come to turn you out...
Come to turn you out...
Preamble to a dying
When your love grips tighter
When the sun burns out
Come to turn you out...
