A ghostly game of cards,
Life that hit them hard.
A friendship in the spirit world.
Each form of question they had circled.
Raging scents of tonic and gin.
Scramble the numbers, begin again.
Musky aroma of unlit cigarettes.
Down lay your money, make a bet.
Chatting away about their loved ones.
On the table, lay their guns.
A misguided arguement about someone who did them wrong.
Blast those old tunes, and sing the songs.
Secrets that came out, to many now know what this night was about.
A bad spirit, on the wrong side of the track.
Be careful, you don't know whose got your back.
Loud thumping sounds of a nightmare coming out.
Somebody, please tell these spirits what this night was about.
