Volunteer - Bitter Ruin

Wait for a day when you’re not relevant to the past

I’m playing, I’m playing

And it’s not a game when you know that your chances are slim

For winning, you’re winning

In all honesty you are undercutting everybody

Lean on the door you’re the easy find they’re looking for

In all honesty you’re a mess

In my mind I guess I am a volunteer

The scientist in you is resting except something’s wrong

And everyone around our table, in hushed voices says

‘It's too late, she’s already gone'

Yes it’s a shame but you’re missing the point I am fine

Reliving, reliving

And yes I’m ashamed but the milestone is wandering far

And I’m running, still running

Matter of fact you’re the bible with a violent impact

Matter of fact you are blind

In my mind I guess I am a volunteer

Here out of choice

In my mind I guess I am a volunteer

Screaming with no voice

My spade is heavy lord I cannot dig anymore

I’m in for another win, pick up your cards off the floor

And I’m feeling the pull to the door, to the door

To the draw

In my mind I guess I am a volunteer

In my mind I guess I am a volunteer
