lyrics

Once again I've lost it all,
I'm gambling until I fall,
put all my chips in one pot,
why oh why can't I stop.

It gets so bad each time,
I'm really not a lucky guy,
when I'll win I do not know,
my addiction will grow and grow.

Why do I have to feel this way,
it simply hurts again and again,
I really wanna just give up,
but I just can't get enough.

This form of gambling isn't a sin,
so I'll keep going until I win,
predictions and odds don't let me know,
how far it is I'll have to go.


When I wake I feel okay,
for about five seconds each day,
then my memory kicks in,
and all I wanna do is win,
I'll never win.


Put your hands around my throat,
you squeeze tight and don't let go,
bury your thoughts in my brain,
like time capsules they will remain.

You were a broken lucky rabbits foot,
a three leaf shamrock that I mistook.
A hologram of victory you did show,
your face painted with pixels truly did glow.

Usually it's an easy steal,
so after every single deal,
I'd raise the stakes a little more,
to scare any other player to the core.

But my hand was simply a bluff,
a new comers was mighty tough.
I ignored my gut until I bled dry,
success went to the other guy.
