Sleight of Hand

Climb out of bed, I know I'll find my way
There's but one thing that lets me face the day
One simple cure for the mistakes I've made
When chips were down, I palmed the ace of spades
Knowledge
Power
Pleasure
Love
Well the king of clubs is an unhappy man
You can see he tries but he can't understand
Highest of elites, had the world in his hands
Got too exclusive, now all alone he stands
Knowledge
Ego
Pleasure
Love
And the queen of diamonds is really quite dull
Although with splendor her days are so full
Lost and empty and blinded by lights
Diamonds don't keep her warm through the night
Knowledge
Power
Escape
Love
So what if I've made deception an art?
Someday all these spades will tear me apart
For that I know I'm too young, too smart
So I put my trust in the suit of hearts
Sorrow
Ego
Escape
Love
