End on E
If you push yourself away from everyone you know
How do you expect relationships to grow
You feel like a character inside a book
That ends in a disaster
No happy ever after
No, no
Just deal the cards and hope that you get aces
And when you play your hand, put on your poker faces
Cause life just don't deal aces
You may have to bluff sometimes
You may have to bluff sometimes
The youngest, brightest minds can't figure out the cause
Of our incurable unhappiness and all our flaws
Our mass has reached passed critical to obvious
I beg you, I beseech you
But I can't seem to reach you
No, no
Just deal the cards and hope that you get aces
And when you play your hand, put on your poker faces
Cause life just don't deal aces
You may have to bluff sometimes
You may have to bluff sometimes
Don't give up on us
Stand and fight as one
