Ante, Shuffle, Deal me in You should know that I came to win Perfect smile, low cut dress You'll reveal everything Cut the deck and deal the cards I cant win until this thing starts We both know this is my last game Place your bets, raises, calls I bet my blind you're a queen of hearts Pocket Aces, bluff and call I'd chase the river from this start No one wins until one of us ends Play the slow game and stay your hand There's no way I can lose this game My chips are all in when you're playing with my heart I chased my queen down the river *** commited and I'm all in Cashing in on my losings Neither of us can ever win We could run away together We'd have to leave right now Let them chase us for forever And burn this card house down Time to make a decision This has gone on way too long Stay, fold, or raise me Cant hide behind your cards When you gave me your heart, baby You said it was safe to play But my hearts set on arson And you love this game Burn the card, throw the flop Every tell reveals what your chasing Say the words, we can stop Let my jack baby be your king After this we wont be the same I'm the wildcard you cant tame If we'd both win I'd throw the game I would. Texas-hold my broken heart We were always meant to end like this A game of chance, a deck of cards Our love staked on a game -  of - risk What the hell, just roll the dice Someone else could be just as nice No more buy backs, you cant re-buy-in I'll burn this house down to ensure the house never wins I'll chase my queen down the river I committed and went all in Now I'm cashing in on my losings Cause its like I never win We can run away together We'd have to leave right now We'll run until forever And let them chase us down Time to make a decision We're both sick of playing games Thought I'd win on the gamble I wont buy your poker face You've got a decision, baby I've loved you from the start Or is everything I've dreamed of A bad hand of cards (Your clever highness usher out the bards try to hide the bluff in hide the bluff in your house of cards) Time to make a decision It'll never be the same Thought I played a safe gamble But you lit the flame You decide if we chase the river And if you'll lose this game But if you're gonna chase that rabbit This house - goes up - in flames Chase me to the river It'll cost you everything Chase me for forever But you know I'm all in You've got to make a decision I've loved you from the start Or is everything I've played for A bad hand of cards

Arson on Poker Night (A Bad Hand of Cards)
Ante, Shuffle, Deal me in You should know that I came to win Perfect smile, low cut dress You'll reveal everything Cut the deck and deal the cards I cant win until this thing starts We both know this is my last game Place your bets, raises, calls I bet my blind you're a queen of hearts Pocket Aces, bluff and call I'd chase the river from this start No one wins until one of us ends Play the slow game and stay your hand There's no way I can lose this game My chips are all in when you're playing with my heart I chased my queen down the river *** commited and I'm all in Cashing in on my losings Neither of us can ever win We could run away together We'd have to leave right now Let them chase us for forever And burn this card house down Time to make a decision This has gone on way too long Stay, fold, or raise me Cant hide behind your cards When you gave me your heart, baby You said it was safe to play But my hearts set on arson And you love this game Burn the card, throw the flop Every tell reveals what your chasing Say the words, we can stop Let my jack baby be your king After this we wont be the same I'm the wildcard you cant tame If we'd both win I'd throw the game I would. Texas-hold my broken heart We were always meant to end like this A game of chance, a deck of cards Our love staked on a game -  of - risk What the hell, just roll the dice Someone else could be just as nice No more buy backs, you cant re-buy-in I'll burn this house down to ensure the house never wins I'll chase my queen down the river I committed and went all in Now I'm cashing in on my losings Cause its like I never win We can run away together We'd have to leave right now We'll run until forever And let them chase us down Time to make a decision We're both sick of playing games Thought I'd win on the gamble I wont buy your poker face You've got a decision, baby I've loved you from the start Or is everything I've dreamed of A bad hand of cards (Your clever highness usher out the bards try to hide the bluff in hide the bluff in your house of cards) Time to make a decision It'll never be the same Thought I played a safe gamble But you lit the flame You decide if we chase the river And if you'll lose this game But if you're gonna chase that rabbit This house - goes up - in flames Chase me to the river It'll cost you everything Chase me for forever But you know I'm all in You've got to make a decision I've loved you from the start Or is everything I've played for A bad hand of cards
A modified version of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" adjusted to the heavier sound of I Prevail's cover. This is the same story as her's, from a jaded guy perspective.
