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
