committed
I raise myself each day
the cards I'm dealt today
the same as yesterday,
I know
I need not look
I know
so I force your hand
and raise the stakes
one last deal
for one last breath;
I guarantee the odds
to be in your favour
if you let me
will you take my bet
and gain my soul?
or will you fade away,
quickly,
just out of reach,
leave me crying
again
