Counting Cards - Rainbow Kitten Surprise

Picture me counting cards, dear, pick any kind you like

Picture them colored red, dear, black will hold back the light

For the stars in our eyes are just diamonds, broke

Jokes we tell to laugh, dear, laugh to hold back the pain

Pain is in the mind, dear, stars are much the same

Gone in the time it takes the light to reach

In time you’ll find we’re blind to the things we don’t believe

Picture us out in Vegas counting bills before a show

Spending em from New Orleans where we spent the week before

And the stars in our eyes are the lights from the flash

Pictures of us in black, dear, rolling on the red

Carpets laid on concrete counting billboards where we’ve read

That the stars of our minds shine bright in the dark

Like diamonds, diamonds

Hearts in our cards and our silver strung guitars say hear me when I call,

hear me when I come in late

You’re wide awake, I’m sorry is not enough, I’m sorry I’m not enough to stay

Faded by, in time with the back of your bed am I that lever you take,

that lever you hold

Faded by, in time with the back of your bed am I that levy you break,

that levy you hold

Paint me red, paint me red, picture that, picture that

Picture us and God shaking hands just because we can

Like DMC we run this shit, Run DMC what’s tricky to get we got

Watch me murder this, watch me murder this

Planes fly due west, and plain in my view is the blame for the fault in our

stars, counting cards in the dark

We sit and talk, bleeding it out, believing that all our stars are just diamonds

Hearts in our cards and our silver strung guitars say hear me when I call,

hear me when I come in late

You’re wide awake, I’m sorry is not enough, I’m sorry I’m not enough to stay

Faded by, in time with the back of your bed am I that lever you take,

that lever you hold

Faded by, in time with the back of your bed am I that levy you break,

that levy you hold

Faded by, in time with the back of your bed am I that lever you take,

that lever you hold

Faded by, in time with the back of your bed am I that levy you break,

that levy you hold

Picture me counting cards, dear, picture me counting cards
