The Losing Game

[staind rose]

you've lost before you've begun to play
welcome to the losing game
woke up a few seconds too late to find yourself
lined up on losers row familiar faces smile
then fade
their chips thrown in, they weren't to be saved

in the losing game you are just dodging your fate
kissing the dead, hoping for a taste
reeled and hooked
slowly pulled in, your flesh begins
to decay and the sickness wins

sooner than later you're on your knees
living for a love that will never deliver
might get you off but never finish
you chase the elusive mate who stole your soul
and stole your pain
and your just another loser
in the losing game.

[blahblahblah]

I liked it stained...

Care to explain it from your point of view, as I have a good idea of the content, but a little discussion in here never killed anyone.

PM me if you get a chance, Id like to get Alis # as I have lost it and yours...

Hope all is well, where are you these days anyways, Virginia, DC, or back in Chitown...?

Yes it works as a poem even if it didn't,,,,,, it was great you put it in here.
