We were both gamblers, And darling, we were all in. Knowing there was a possibility Of holes left in our hearts being unable to mend. I know life always has a way of leaving us broken, but darling, for tonight, let's pretend. Risking the chance we could be left with nothing, we put in all we had. But in the end, even though we lost everything, life didn't seem so bad. We knew what we were getting ourselves into. All or nothing It just so happens that this time, Life chose nothing. But we still somehow believed that we had gained from something. We had discovered sides of ourselves that the other brought to light, And they were worth knowing, even though now, we are simply a lost dream in the night.

From every experience that fails, find something that has made you stronger because of it.
