I got a new bad habit and it's so hard to break
Why can't I put it down? Instead, I raise the stakes
Heaven hear my call, here's my soul to take
Cause I'm in over my head and I can't get away

[Chorus:]
I'm playing roulette, but the wheel don't love me at all
I'm playing roulette, and my heart is a tumbling ball
And the wheel turns me over again;
I'm a helpless soul with a hopeless hand
And my heart's going deeper in debt
That's what I get when I'm playing roulette

What happens in this town don't stay here for too long
I take my winnings home, but in the morning he's always gone
Should I run away? I wish I could change
There's a lion in my heart, and I know he can't be tamed

[Chorus]
I'm playing roulette, but the wheel don't love me at all
I'm playing roulette, and my heart is a tumbling ball
And the wheel turns me over again;
I'm a helpless soul with a hopeless hand
And my heart's going deeper in debt
That's what I get when I'm playing roulette
I feel like I'm always running
I'm just as lost as my mind is
Maybe one more spin will save me;
If I lost, you know where to find me

[Chorus]
I'm playing roulette
I'm playing roulette
I'm playing roulette
