I took my shot,
but I didn't hit the jackpot.
I gambled away my heart,
knowing it maybe ripped apart.
It wasn't all my fault,
however I'm guilty of a foolish assault.

Whenever you attempt to inflict pain,
you maybe the one caught in the rain.
I'm caught in the rain of my own cloud,
and I'm surely not proud.

I made a goal,
that's buried in my heart and soul.
Even though I know it is a difficult one,
I promised to continue its run.

Practice what you preach,
I really try to keep this in reach.

There's a great feeling in peace,
but we all have to learn to beseech,
and extend our reach.

Put hurt feelings and selfishness aside,
even if it causes us hurt pride.

Once you experience the ultimate,
It's just hard to accept illegitimate.

They say gambling isn't good,
so I guess I'd better knock on wood.

However

I have no regrets,
about my gambling bets.

I'm comfortable with myself even when I goof up,
but even so, I have no plans to stay corrupt.

Blink!
