The Lottery

Standing in a line
 To take a shortcut to another place
 They're racing: mind and heart as I contemplate
 The feeling should the vessel choose to sink
 Out of the sky today
 And spiral down
 Force Unimagined
 Lottery
 As if you'd ever set your eyes upon me
 But somebody will
 Win the ride of a life time
 Never to fear where we seemingly came from
 It's easier said than done
 Sitting in a line
 To take the shortcut to another place
 It's building: lament upon the runway
 As the pilot puts the ticket in the lottery begins
 And now I'm dreaming
 Of every sound or movement's will to choose me
 Always the line
 Near where shelter lets the rain through
 Where your demons wait to meet you
 Always the line we tread
 (Solo: Phelps)
 Always the line
 Near where shelter lets the rain through
 Where your demons wait to meet you
 Always the line we tread
 Spiral down
 Force unimagined
 Knowing that the impact will shatter us
 As we burn
 From nothing I came, I'll return
 Lottery
 As if you'd ever set your eyes upon me
 But someone always wins the damned game
 God forbid it's me
 Standing in a line to take a shortcut to another place
 There is nothing that you can do
 To guarantee what you have temporarily
 Remember you were fine before you came to be
 And hold on knowing you'll fall
