Lyrics:
Put the knife in the table
Deck of cards fly across the room
This game has ended someone needs to die
Cause I put my life on the table but forgot the risk I assume
Now it’s going down
Fell in love with the game
But I forgot Your name
Go ahead please fight me
Cause I’m not scared
Though You stayed the same
I forgot from where I came
I put my life on this table
This is me and I’m lost for words
Now is it me who needs to die
Say something then
Cause I’ll be dead before dawn
If Your voice comes unheard
Now I can’t find ground
Fell in love with the game
But I forgot Your name
Go ahead please fight me
Cause I’m not scared
Though You stayed the same
I forgot from where I came
And we both stand tall on the table
You take me by the hand and I grab You by the throat
And we come crashing down through the window
On the dirt ground below
And we wrestle in the mud and the blood and the beer
Break my jaw I don’t care
Just stay with me, stay
Lock my arms I don’t want to move
Hold me still teach me how to weep
If it’s ok with You I think I’ll stay here
For a little while
Fell in love with the game
But I forgot Your name
Go ahead please find me
Cause I’m not scared
Though You stayed the same
I forgot from where I came

Behind the Song:
'Wrestling with God is an old theme in songs. The fight between man and his creator is an old one. There is a great release when you have given up caring what happens to you, you just need to experience. There is also a fight in this song between who we are and what we do. Making music for a profession is a challenge. It is easy to get caught up in the expectations of others and make it all about business and less about a passion for making music. You start a journey wanting to get somewhere and when you arrive, you forget why you came. For us, this record was a pure pasison and love for making music.' - Christian Lindskog (Blindside)
