Heaven only knows
Just how far I've come
I know it shows
When the drinking's done
Morning always rises
I can blame it all I want
The truth just comes to head
When the Hanging comes
Too many rules in the game
All these cards just look the same
As I try to entertain my restless mind
Smoke is turning in the sky
It's still burning from the rite
The sky is dark but it's not night
Heavy head
Foreign bed
Have I finally reached the dead
When the world never seems real
And it burns right where I feel
All around me I see souls
In these green and lonely halls
The Gods of Fate sharpen their knives
Then turn to me with ancient eyes
They've sewed a thread I've always worn
Around my neck since I was born
And it chokes me when I pray
It won't let me run away
Where I rise and where I fall
I will always want it all
That's your curse and that's your game
And it's writ in your own name
You can't run and you can't hide from this fire that's eating you alive
Sober I can lie and lie
Hungover I can't hide
Curse this self-inflicted pain
Have I finally gone insane?
Now the drink won't satiate
It will only set ablaze
All you're trying to escape the Gods have sewn into your Fate
And this noose of open flames
Neither prayer nor time can change
Take the cards you're dealt with grace
You're the Joker so you say
Tell the souls around you what you threw away
Heaven only knows
Just how far I've come
I know it shows
When the drinking's done
Morning always rises
I can blame it all I want
The truth just comes to head
When the Hanging comes
