Avenus Sans Pitie Poet Lyric

Pretty Maggie Money Eyes

A smoky casino the shadows dance, 
A lonely gambler takes one last chance. 
With a defeated heart and pockets bare, 
He stands before the machine, unaware. 
Her whispers weave through the neon glow, 
A siren's song in a world of woe. 

Spin me let our fortunes collide, 
She is a ghost from the past that he can't outride. 
She’s haunting this metal with eyes like coal
A heartless dealer playing for his soul 
One last dollar to light up the night, 
A gambler’s curse wrapped in delight. 

Maggie was born in shadows, where dreams fell apart, 
A queen of despair with a broken heart. 
Her final moments on her final day, 
She fed her desires as her life slipped away. 
She is now trapped in a cage of silver and gold, 
She waits for her lover—so desperate and cold. 

Spin me let our fortunes collide, 
A ghost from the past that he can’t outride. 
She’s haunting this metal with eyes like coals 
A heartless dealer playing for his soul 
One last dollar to light up the night, 
A gambler’s curse wrapped in delight. 

When he pulls that lever and feels his luck rise
A smile spreads wide as he gazes at lies; 
“Just one more hit,” she whispers so sweet 
But love turns to dust beneath victory's heat. 

Lights flash bright as he takes off his mask, 
Forgetting her sorrow within every task; 
His heart starts racing, it can't take much more
As she dances around him like flames on the floor. 

Spin me, oh spin me, let our fortunes collide, 
A ghost from the past that he can’t outride. 
She’s haunting this metal with eyes like coal
She is a heartless dealer playing for his soul 
One last dollar to light up the night, 
She is this gambler’s curse wrapped in delight. 

In echoes of laughter where silence once lay; 
The gambler falls hard when he plays it her way 
His spirit now bound to the machine evermore
Maggie smiles at him laying on the casino floor
