Playing With Death Lyrics by Phantom Limb

Phantom Limb

[Verse]
Send in the clown
Send out the porter
You will be mine again
Poker cards like stray shards
Cut at your fingers

Shoes that pinch your toes
And all those extravagant clothes
Excess, it suits you, yes
Poker cards like stray shards

[Chorus]
Playing with death again
Weren't you my son
Playing with death again
Weren't you boy

Excess, oh how it suits you, so far
You've managed to get away with it all
Poker cards like stray shards

[Chorus]
Playing with death again
Weren't you my son
Playing with death again
Weren't you boy

Poker cards like stray shards
Cut at your fingers as you play
And those God damn poker cards
They'll be your death

[Chorus]
Playing with death again
Weren't you my son
Playing with death again
Weren't you boy

Why won't you disagree and see what happens
Just a little individuality and go see what happens
Tell me why, tell me why

You're playing with death again
Weren't you boy

Disagree... please...
But I know you can't now
Just look at you
