there is nothing left behind me

and everything spread out before me


but my past is my whole content

and my future a gamble I cannot afford


go for broke! you say?

I'd say it's easy for you to talk


but we're all at the same monte table

and the street supports all endeavor


even if the dealer's crooked

even if the deck is stacked


it's the only thing on offer

and the only shot left to take...
