We are all delt a hand
Given one card at a time
Some high cards, some low
Luck of the draw

The lights are dim
Around this table we sit
The outcome is unknown
But still we choose to play the game

The anty is my heart
I place my bet
You raise the stakes
I want to see your hand

What started as friends
Has raised in measure
And now there's no going back
But still we choose to play the game

Ace, King, Queen, & a Jack...
What will your next card be?
Is this a bluff or chance?
I watch as the cards fall...

Waiting, Watching, Hoping...

The light grows dim
Around this table I sit
The 4 of Clubs is shown
I no longer choose to play the game.
