Take a breath, take it deep
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take a gun, and count to three
As life is like a gambling, I will never know what I am taking my chance on would take me.
Say a prayer to yourself
He says, close you eyes
Sometimes it helps
And then I get a scary thought
That he’s here means he’s never lost
Sometimes I try to calm myself.
Then I run away. I hide and my defense mechanism works hard.
So I know..... I really am the loser.
I’m sweating now, moving slow
No time to think, my turn to go
As thinking too hard, being unreasonable and nonsense, I still am confused and hesitate if I should take another step....
I, however, have to get going...,
take another chance, throw a dice, one more time playing
Waiting to see what my ace is,
can you see me confused?
Do you notice that I am nervous?
Can you tell I am scared?
And.... do you ever care?
Finally, it may be me who is impatient.
And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
Know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger.......
BANG!!
