Lyrics

The reaper called around at midnight. baby
He had some bad news for you
A final warning - the cards you're playing - are turning back on you
Your living in a high speed world so crazy
Burning out of mental fuel
The ball of fortune is getting cloudy - you gotta see it through

You push it up - you pull it down, keep dragging it round and round
Don't let it crush ya, or grind you down - stop falling to the ground

Just keep rolling, controlling - exploding that heavy load
Tarot woman - my destiny - who controls heaven knows
Rolling, controlling, smashing that heavy load
Fire woman - give me the key - to ride that burning road

The taker of your soul got it for free
Now he's selling it back to you
But you've got nothing that he needs - your world he turns for you
The knives at pointing at you from all directions
Those cheating ways were born to lose
Still you keep running in guilty shoes - it's time you faced the truth

Keep pushing up - keep pulling down, keep on dragging it round and round
Don't let it crush ya - stop falling down - get yourself up off the ground

Just keep rolling, controlling - exploding that heavy load
Tarot woman - my destiny - who controls heaven knows
Rolling, controlling, smashing that heavy load
Fire woman - give me the key - to ride that burning road

The city is alive with ghouls, baby
Who used to be friends with you
But now the living dead are turning - their dirty backs on you
The joker in the pack is your last card shit no
You've traded that ace for blues
Cold paranoia, no holy water - can cleanse this curse from you
