Death by chances.

Yeah, the first 4 lines just were rolling around in my head for a few days, I typed them up and gradually added to it over a wee while.
It's definitely not my best, but all that aside, it's okay.



It’s a horrible life
But a beautiful day
I’m going to go outside
And throw it all away.

I’ve got nothing to lose
And nothing to gain
I could have done this long ago
I might go end this pain.

I’ve tried this once
I’ll try it twice
It’s a game of chance
Walk away or pay the price?

I play this game, I play alone
I play this little game I know
Luck shall decide my fate
It’ll decide if I stay or if I go.

The chances are one in six
Small revolver, silver bullet
Spin the barrel, finger to trigger
Held to my head, dare I pull it?

I’ve played this before
Fate hasn’t killed me yet
Maybe this time
My life is what I bet.

I’m a gambler
With nothing to lose
If I stay, or if I die
Is not for me to choose.

I feel the pressure on my temple
I close my eyes
I hold my breath
Now for the surprise.

Trigger finger, feeling frisky
I gulp the air
I pull the trigger
My mind is clear.

My horrible life,
Ended on a beautiful day.
Nothing lost,
Nothing gained.
