My Cards
My cards said I would die today
But as usual I didn’t believe
I went on my way
Back in the world to deceive
As the day went on
The worse things became
It had been so long
Since I had lost the game
By night fall I was crying
Beating my fist on your photograph
Then I remembered dying
Which made me laugh
I walked on the balcony
The street light was so dim
I jumped with all I had in me
Oh I know my death was grim
My cards said I would die today
But the choice was left up to me
With no other way
I will spend eternity with me
