Lyrics: Nicholas Phokeev/Joshua Dolan
Music: Nicholas Phokeev
Let's hear your wager
For how long I stay awake
With my face turning blue
From all you want me to say
Still crunching the numbers
You said would set me free
But what's the cost of being someone
That l'd hate to be
'Cause you can play your hand
And make a thousand plans
Gamble your promises
But I won't bet my life on trying to understand
You were trying all you can to push me
To stay up late, and use my time faithfully
I played my cards, so now it's all or nothing
Will I ever make it, I can't
Fathom all the probabilities I'll make it out
Turning from the hearts that I'm still probably missing out
'Cause l'm not what you're thinking of
And I just wanna live above
My own self
For myself
'Cause you can play your hand
And make a thousand plans
Gamble your promises
But I won't bet my life on trying to understand
You were trying all you can to push me
You can play your hand
To stay up late, and use my time faithfully
Make a thousand plans
I played my cards, so now it's all or nothing
I won't bet my life on trying to understand
