Post 204: 6 Numbers (4/10/10)

6 numbers (1/12/10 c, 4/10/10 w)

Thinking back on old times

Trying to remember why I wanted to stay alive
As I draw a blank
Maybe it was a misguided belief that it could all turn out right
I pray it can, it can tonight

Happiness is just, just

6 numbers away
If they hit, my life begins anew today
For so long the dark cloud
I thought was a shroud
But now I see a ray of light heading towards me
I’m 6 numbers away

Maybe I can afford the cost

To replace all of the love that I’ve lost
Or that I’ve never really known
Maybe if I had the cash
I could learn to take the chance
Maybe make a play to get her back

Happiness is just, just

6 numbers away
If they hit, my life begins anew today
For so long the dark cloud
I thought was a shroud
But now I see a ray of light heading towards me
I’m 6 numbers away

Maybe I could pay off

Pay off all the debts I owe
To the people who kept me alive
Kept me alive for all of this time
When I just wanted to fade away
I know I can make their day

I’m just, just 6 numbers away

Happiness is just, just
6 numbers away
If they hit, my life begins anew today
For so long the dark cloud
I thought was a shroud
But now I see a ray of light heading towards me
I’m 6 numbers away
