Ace of Spades

Ace of Spades by Kathryn Cloward

You’re chasing demons and shutting me out
Blaming me for choices you couldn’t live without
You say you’re not lying it’s a mirage inside your mind
Smoking up screens from truth you don’t want me to find

Joker’s wild it’s a fool’s game
You thought you could play me just the same
And even with my queen of hearts
You bluffed me from the start
But I’m more powerful than the king you played
I’m the ace of spades

I questioned your cards then ignored for ten days
It was a clear tell alerting me to your ways
But I doubled down to remain in the game
Then I forced a fold when I got more of the same

Joker’s wild it’s a fool’s game
You thought you could play me just the same
Even with my queen of hearts
You bluffed me from the start
But I’m more powerful than the king you played
I’m the ace of spades

Diamonds clubs hearts and spades
All the games people play
Diamonds clubs hearts and spades
Cash it out and walk away

Joker’s wild it’s a fool’s game
You thought you could play me just the same
Even with my queen of hearts
You bluffed me from the start
But I’m more powerful than the king you played
I’m the ace of spades
I’m the ace of spades
I’m the ace of spades
