It all started with a small bet
Then the time came I needed to be sedated
My soul unable to control my mind
Spiralling downwards to a bitter end
Just one more bet is all I need
That one more bet turned into thirty-three
I know I will regret this when it’s over
but each bet gets me closer and closer
each bet relaxes me I feel the adrenaline
I know I will regret this when it’s over
The bitter end comes, and the emotions coming back
I look at the paper declaring me penniless
Now is the time for me to be sedated
My mind only wants to fool me now
Telling me not to worry we will win next time
I push the feelings away, I hide the emotion from been penniless
I tell myself I won’t do it again then payday comes
I put on the bet just one bet
I know I will regret this later
It never ends with just one
I see the declaration that I am penniless
The time has come I need to be sedated
My mind tells me not to be so stupid
My heart breaking looking at my struggles
Soul crippling running away knowing right now I need to be sedated
Your the only one that want’s me around
My mind reminding me why I believe in you
I don’t believe in you my mind is crippled
The addiction taking hold
I just now after the first bet
I will regret it later.
