you always buy a ticket
got to be in it to win it
life is a lottery
a game of chance loss or gain
betting on a horse that’s lame
always loaded to the dealer’s hand
wake up
wake up
from the dream
tomorrow is another day
because you see it that way
the moment is now
never before lived
the place may be familiar
but take in the landscape
forgive yourself the pain
bad decisions flawed refrain
your future is here and now
step through the door
take a bow

forgive yourself the pain
