"A Great Reckoning" lyrics - THE DAMNED THINGS

I'll let the coin toss figure it out
If that's alright
I can't be bothered with affairs of the heart
When I'm trying to ruin my life

Place your money down to beat the spread
You give me more credit than you should ever invest
And if it's bad luck that suits us
Then I'm one of a kind

[Chorus:]
The king gets his aces cracked
My good name's no good anymore
Awareness is leaving me
But I don't miss it, I don't know

I'm not wanted, I reckon
I reckon, I reckon

It's not necessity that kept you around
Of that I'm sure
Unless you need to keep falling apart
Then I'm your safest bet

We've been counting cards, trying to win
I lost more dignity then I had to spend
And if it's bad luck that suits us
Then I'm one of a kind

[Chorus]

You can't take me anywhere
My good name's no good anymore
The king gets his aces cracked
And I don't miss it, I don't know

I'm not wanted, I reckon
I reckon, I reckon

[Chorus]

You can't take me anywhere
My good name's no good anymore
The king gets his aces cracked
And I don't miss it, I don't know

I'm not wanted, I reckon
I reckon, I reckon

Tonight I am ending the world [2x]
Every night I am ending the world
This is my great reckoning
