Call It a Ritual Lyrics

Lyric discussion by IceCuban06 

Cover art for Call It a Ritual lyrics by Wolf Parade

at first listen i feel like this "ritual" is gambling, and going to the desert is Las Vegas.

"i said i'll make the decisions you just drive you just drive"

sounds like someones addiction to gambling even though they were told of the consequences.

my parents and aunts do this all the time, (but not to vegas) they save to or plan to go gambling, they do it somewhat often, and they love it; it's their own little ritual.

but this is just my two-cents from my first look at the lyrics, i may be way off.
