David Bazan - Someone Else's Bet Lyrics

white light
maybe time to go
surrounded by all my love
dozing off

persuaded by
my mother's fear
deathbed sinner's prayer
fingers crossed

I will not lay in bed
with the wheel turning in my head
trying to figure out the spread
on someone else's bet

dinner's on the table
your mother's at the door
kids are watching TV
you never needed me more

you never needed me more
you never needed me more

telephone is ringing
bill collectors buy and sell
I may not be in heaven
but you're in hell

okay, I'll lay here a little while
if you promise to run our history through my head

when my horizon flipped
i sat down and i made a list
and I'm never gonna rest in peace
in your debt

I will not lay in bed
with a wheel turning in my head
trying to figure out the spread
of someone else's bet
