Devil's Hand

He walked alone with nothing in his hands
He had a dream you might understand
Living the high life is where he use to be
Now he's just a poor man, laying in-between

He had to leave his true love behind
The only thing he had left deep inside

Smoking and drinking
Playing his luck every night
When he's on fire
Lays the cards down just right
Ten, jack, queen, king, ace up his sleeve
Gets his high by watching you bleed
One night he realized time had run out
Made a bet with evil, himself
Now he's gotta play just one more game
Win back his soul, fortune, and fame

He had an obsession of the highest degree
They cursed the moment, they heard him say

I'm playing the devil's hand
I'm living the only way I can
I'm playing the devil's hand
I'm the only one, who'll be here in the end

He made his way by stealing
Dreams that others made
Kept his hand on the table
And one foot in the grave
He draws you in the game
To keep himself entertained
Loved to be in the spot light
As others watched him play

Now he's on top of the world, he'll never get enough to keep his dreams alive

Smoking and drinking
Playing his luck every night
When he's on fire
Lays the cards down just right
Ten, jack, queen, king, ace up his sleeve
Gets his high by watching you bleed
One night he realized time had run out
Made a bet with evil, himself
Now he's gotta play just one more game
Win back his soul, fortune, and fame 

He had an obsession of the highest degree
They cursed the moment, they heard him say

I'm playing the devil's hand
I'm living the only way I can
I'm playing the devil's hand
I'm the only one, who'll be here in the end
