Lyrics Gambit - Murder Inc.

Gambit

Wake up — black side of night
Just in time for sacrifice
Bent double in my hand
Face to face with another man
Who am I to judge you?
I just want to get through to you?
Overstepping the margin
Just another diversion
In the mirror I can see
Coming up behind me
Threats we buried weeks ago
How was I to know?
Ain’t that the truth though?
I’m loud enough to drown you out
Try acting like a hero
Come across in your own self doubt
You seem to think that I’m shameless
Apparent in your rage and hate
I didn’t walk away blameless
Inconsequential, tragic and late
It couldn’t wait forever
The murder of trust
I’ll live with it forever
As it rots in the dust…
Looks like the gambit is here
The torrential terminus
And everything that I knew I’d fear
Stuck between the two of us
I see us both from the outside
We walk in circles unresolved
I’ll take a hammer to midnight
Until the feeling’s dissolved…
Looks like the gambit is here
