Picture me counting cards, dear
Pick any kind you like
Picture them colored red, dear
Black will hold back the light
From the stars in our eyes are just diamonds, broke
Jokes we tell to laugh, dear
Laugh to hold back the pain
Pain is in the mind, dear
Stars are much the same
Gone in the time
It takes the light to reach
In time you'll find we're blind to the things
We don't believe
Picture us out in Vegas
Counting bills before a show
Spending 'em from New Orleans
Where we spent the week before
And the stars in our eyes
Are the lights from the flash
Pictures of us in black, dear
Rolling on the red
Carpets laid on concrete
Counting billboards where we've read
That the stars in our minds
Shine bright in the dark
Like diamonds, diamonds
And hearts in our cards and our silver strung guitars say
Hear me when I call, hear me when I come in late
You're wide awake, "I'm sorry" is not enough
I'm sorry I'm not enough to stay
Faded by, in time with the back of your bed
Am I that lever you take
That lever you hold?
Faded by, in time with the back of your head
Am I that levy you break
That levy you hold?
Paint me red, paint me red
Picture that, picture that
Picture us and God shaking hands just because we can
Like DMC we run this shit
Run DMC what's tricky to get we got
Watch me murder this
Watch me murder this
Planes fly due west, and plain in my view
Is the blame for the fault in our stars
Counting cards in the dark
We sit and talk, bleeding it out
Believing that all our stars are just diamonds
And hearts in our cards and our silver strung guitars say
Hear me when I call, hear me when I come in late
You're wide awake, "I'm sorry" is not enough
I'm sorry I'm not enough to stay
Faded by, in time with the back of your bed
Am I that lever you take, that lever you hold?
Faded by, in time with the back of your head
Am I that levy you break, that levy you hold?
Picture me counting cards, dear, picture me counting cards
Pick any kind you like
Picture them colored red, dear
Black will hold back the light
From the stars in our eyes are just diamonds, broke
Jokes we tell to laugh, dear
Laugh to hold back the pain
Pain is in the mind, dear
Stars are much the same
Gone in the time
It takes the light to reach
In time you'll find we're blind to the things
We don't believe
Picture us out in Vegas
Counting bills before a show
Spending 'em from New Orleans
Where we spent the week before
And the stars in our eyes
Are the lights from the flash
Pictures of us in black, dear
Rolling on the red
Carpets laid on concrete
Counting billboards where we've read
That the stars in our minds
Shine bright in the dark
Like diamonds, diamonds
And hearts in our cards and our silver strung guitars say
Hear me when I call, hear me when I come in late
You're wide awake, "I'm sorry" is not enough
I'm sorry I'm not enough to stay
Faded by, in time with the back of your bed
Am I that lever you take
That lever you hold?
Faded by, in time with the back of your head
Am I that levy you break
That levy you hold?
Paint me red, paint me red
Picture that, picture that
Picture us and God shaking hands just because we can
Like DMC we run this shit
Run DMC what's tricky to get we got
Watch me murder this
Watch me murder this
Planes fly due west, and plain in my view
Is the blame for the fault in our stars
Counting cards in the dark
We sit and talk, bleeding it out
Believing that all our stars are just diamonds
And hearts in our cards and our silver strung guitars say
Hear me when I call, hear me when I come in late
You're wide awake, "I'm sorry" is not enough
I'm sorry I'm not enough to stay
Faded by, in time with the back of your bed
Am I that lever you take, that lever you hold?
Faded by, in time with the back of your head
Am I that levy you break, that levy you hold?
Picture me counting cards, dear, picture me counting cards
