What is it you really want
Can you answer right away
If you pause for a second
There is nothing to say
Winning is better than losing
At least that is what is said
Until you find yourself there
At the finish line in your head
When the cards say so
It is time to throw them in
The house of cards
Doesn’t have a roof made of tin
Where there is smoke
There will be an ash to kick
Forget about the open flame
That you poke with a stick
Set out
To get a hold
Grab what you want
Life is for the told
Life is for the bold
Life is bought and sold
