The House Will Always Win

Every bet I ever made; I've lost.

Every time I try to cheat, I get caught.

What's a girl gotta do to get off.

I saw your picture in the news, your mug shot.

Though I was your queen of Camelot,

till she came back and took my spot.


I put all my eggs in one basket,

trying to not to make a racket.

I dove into you headfirst,

just trying to quench my thirst.

But now when I spin,

I know that the house will always win.


Everything I've ever known, has come down.

Every time I try to go, I get doubts.

What can I do to break out.

Wish I could be chill, like her now.

But how can I live without your vow.

What do I do when I need her crown?


I put all my eggs in one basket,

trying not to make a racket.

I dove into you headfirst,

just trying to quench my thirst.

But now when I spin,

I know that the house will always win.


Why will you always choose her

when you tell me that it's over.

time and time again,

over and over till the end.

I need to let it go and leave you alone,

but you'll always run back to me.

and I just let it be.


I put all my eggs in one basket

trying not to make a racket.

I dove into you headfirst,

just trying to quench my thirst.

I cried for days,

for my luck to change.

But now when I spin,

I know that the house will always win.

She'll always win.
