The day I lost the lottery

The day I lost the lottery I didn't shed a tear.

I went home and screamed **** You" till my voice was lost

and till blood spilled out my ears.

 

The day I lost the lottery I believe I lost my mind.

I ignored every emotion in my ******* head

And stabbed my heart and threw it through the grind.

 

The day I lost the lottery I truly thought my life was through.

Because the day I lost the lottery,

It was the day that I lost you.
