cut me out

night after night, day after day, hours and seconds to go, dying of fright, nothing to say, i've got no money to show, picking at the bits and pieces of this puzzle game, educated reasons why i have to wear this shame, hey you - cut me out, come back - and put my money down, hey you - what have i done to you, don't - don't spread the news around, dreams in my sleep, are tales from the cards, i see the final countdown, reptiles that creep, pushing me hard, making me go one more round, just another night - begging for mercy, what can i do - pleading 'n' searching, in the night
