Play Dirty

Snakes and ladders.

Buckles shattered.

It doesnt matter

We were lost but not forever.

Into the darkness

Enter the night

We're protected

The doors get slammed behind.

You can't look away

You'll come but you can't stay

You like the way i play

'cause when i play

I play dirty.

The stakes are high

The steaks served rare.

Your box never read

Handle with care

The cards were shuffled

The feathers ruffled

I'm cruel to be kind

So the worst is left behind

I play dirty

I smile big, 'cause i smile what i mean

Now we're all preened and sparkle clean.

I'll whisper softly in your ear

Until the truth is clear
