Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You slid in wet from the rain
Hat brim low, eyes like blame
I read your mouth by the glass
You never say where you’ve been
Your left hand hides the ring
Your right hand tells me things
A bent coin, a burned matchbook
And a smile that won’t stay put
[Pre-Chorus]
You give me half
Then half again
A little truth
And a darker end
[Chorus]
Half the card, half the card
You deal me half the card
Half the card, half the card
And I still come back hard
Tell me now, tell me now
What your silence guards
Half the card, half the card
Baby, I want the card
[Verse 2]
The room leans in to hear
Your laugh cut thin and clear
You say you’re clean tonight
But your coat still smells of lies
I trace the ash on your sleeve
You watch me, let me believe
That love can pay the cost
When it’s already lost
[Pre-Chorus]
You give me half
Then half again
A little truth
And a darker end
[Chorus]
Half the card, half the card
You deal me half the card
Half the card, half the card
And I still come back hard
Tell me now, tell me now
What your silence guards
Half the card, half the card
Baby, I want the card
[Bridge]
Play me the part you keep
The bruise beneath your sleeve
If you’re gonna leave a cut
Make it honest enough
[Final Chorus]
Half the card, half the card
You deal me half the card
Half the card, half the card
And I still come back hard
Tell me now, tell me now
What your silence guards
Half the card, half the card
Baby, I want the card
