Fate

[Verse 1] Sitting at the table losing every hand And the cards come up the same I keep thinking I’ll get lucky, something’s got to change And I will catch a flame I’m as cold as January, cursed as a Jonah But I just can’t quit the game [Chorus 1] Another round I am all in I’ll beat the odds, someday I’ll win Luck of the draw, out of my hands Whatever comes, it’s up to chance Wager it all, accept the deal My fate is sealed [Verse 2] Gripped by an addiction That is driving me to hell But it’s easily encouraged, everybody all around me Has the malady as well We would rather take our chances, bet away the future Than face up to the smell [Chorus 2] Gamble away the moon and stars The world to be that is not ours Drunk with the lust for easy wealth We’ll take the chance, bankrupt ourselves We bet the farm, no turning back Even or odd, on red or black Our future is no longer ours The outcome rests with higher powers All bets are down, now spin the wheel Our fate is sealed [Outro - Chorus 2] Gamble away the moon and stars The world to be that is not ours Drunk with the lust for easy wealth We’ll take the chance, bankrupt ourselves We bet the farm, no turning back Even or odd, on red or black Our future is no longer ours The outcome rests with higher powers All bets are down, now spin the wheel Our fate is sealed
