Always focused, working hard Staring at the deck, playing every card Doing everything that can be done Thinking about what I've lost versus what I've won But when everything was settled down I felt no victory wearing a crown With nothing else to do I've lost myself without a clue Feeling so bored Staring at the game, at the board Playing by my own accords Losing something I can't afford Deep inside I feel so torn. How can I be so blinded playing a game So nearsighted I went insane What I've lost can't be replaced Looking back after all these days All I could see are my regrets Too blind bending rules and making bets I didn't know what I was doing Until now all that's left are ruins. All the words I could have uttered Now lies deep within my head All broken down and shattered Never to be heard, never to be said

Looking back from today
Always focused, working hard Staring at the deck, playing every card Doing everything that can be done Thinking about what I've lost versus what I've won But when everything was settled down I felt no victory wearing a crown With nothing else to do I've lost myself without a clue Feeling so bored Staring at the game, at the board Playing by my own accords Losing something I can't afford Deep inside I feel so torn. How can I be so blinded playing a game So nearsighted I went insane What I've lost can't be replaced Looking back after all these days All I could see are my regrets Too blind bending rules and making bets I didn't know what I was doing Until now all that's left are ruins. All the words I could have uttered Now lies deep within my head All broken down and shattered Never to be heard, never to be said
