The chance is slim

The dead are dancing
at the party now
the lost are prancing
anyway anyhow

the lonely hoping
the ticket is right
the lost try coping
with the neon light

     oh wish you were here
     to try and taste the fear
     of being out on a limb
     and the chance is slim
     we won't sink, we'll swim
     yes the chance is slim
     we won't sink, we'll swim

The world is crumbling
'fore our very eyes
the dice are tumbling
gambling away lives

the house is falling
all around our ears
angels are calling
from beyond the years
